Why did they choose this piece of creative?” Do you have experience managing digital projects to meet aggressive deadlines and goals? If so, throw your hat in the ring and apply to be our newest account leader today.

• You are experienced: You have 4+ years of experience in digital marketing or professional politics. You are familiar with project managing ad projects (television, print, and/or digitals ads).

• You are organized: You excel at guiding multiple people through dozens of tasks, all at once, without ever missing a beat. You do it by creating processes and systems that ensure the work is scalable and mistake‑free.
• You empower diverse perspectives: You recognize the value that team members bring to our work based on their unique life experiences. You collaboratively and respectfully draw on these experiences to produce high‑quality, culturally competent work.
• You are always pushing the envelope: You aren’t just interested in checking boxes; rather, you continually push your team. You don’t just follow best practices. You strive to create new ones by testing new strategies that improve results.
• You love building relationships: Your communications, whether in person or by phone or email, aren’t just about the next task. They develop long‑term rapport with clients, partners, and fellow team members.
