An account manager generally takes care of either clients accounts in some companies (such as a bank), or company accounts, depending on the type. For a design firm, this would likely be the latter: you would be in charge of making sure your clients pay you on time as well as making sure that your bills are all being paid. It's a lot of numbers work and a lot of hassle but a good way to start moving up in the company if that's what you're interested in.
