Job Requirements + Preferences

Must Be Local: Although we are a remote office, our clients and vendors are primarily located in Berks County or its contiguous counties. You’ll need to attend in-person meetings, events, and pickup/delivery production items. We do not provide relocation assistance.

Experience is Key: A Bachelor’s Degree in Business, Marketing, Communications, or related field and a minimum of five (5) years of experience working in account management or related-marketing and advertising field is required. Any type of prior advertising or media agency experience is preferred, but not a requirement.

Our hours are our client’s hours and sometimes fall outside of the typical 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday schedule. Projects and deadlines change by the second around here. We need you to be able to adapt, overcome, and get the job done. This includes attending client and MADJ events whenever possible.

An Eye for the Details: We’re a creative team working in a creative industry. AEs are responsible for working with the Creative Services team to develop the best possible product. As the primary account contact, you are responsible for giving the client not only what they ask for, but what they need to be successful.

Be a Storyteller, a Visionary: While there is a team of experts here to help, AEs are responsible for developing ideas and stories based on a client’s request and then finding the best way to execute them. From concept to script to storyboarding to finished product, you are responsible for it all.

Be a Team Player: You’ll manage your clients and their projects independently but will also have access to the MADJ team for assistance if applicable or available. As such, AEs must be able to work both on their own and with other colleagues without issue. This also includes assisting others within the organization with their work whenever needed.

Be Social Savvy: We’re a social media leader in the region and this position will require a lot of social media administration, planning and copywriting.
