Are you a doer or a dreamer? (Both, we hope.)

Seeking: Account Executive

You are a doer. A multi-tasking superstar. The ever-organized, ever-efficient link between client and creative team. You make more lists than Santa. You dig for data all the way to China. That’s what doers do. But you’re also a dreamer. A strategist. A smart worker. With sharp creative instincts and a passion for advertising that goes way beyond your mega-organized day planner. You’re doing the day-to-day stuff to perfection; and contributing to a team with impeccable client service that helps our clients get results. So, bring us your degree in business or marketing and work experience. We could be doing and dreaming up some pretty wicked stuff together.

Liaising with suppliers and other group m5 companies to coordinate and manage multiple projects from start to finish.
Preparing and distributing campaign communications to the clients including meeting and conference call minutes.
Organizing and attending client meetings and conference calls to discuss campaign strategies and other relevant items.
Undertaking secondary research in order to gain insight into current client situations including their competitive environment, industry trends, as well as program impacts and results.
Other tasks as they evolve.
