Craft Is Hiring: Account Director

Hi, I’m Ali Azzopardi, a Senior Vice President here at Craft. Over my decade with the company, I’ve watched us scale from five people to a team of nearly 50 incredible humans. And now we’re growing again: we’re looking for two new Account Directors to join our team. Could this be you?

A bit about Craft: Lisa Pasquin founded our agency ten years ago with a clear goal - to create an inspiring environment where people do great things together. Today, we’re proud to partner with brands like Keurig Dr Pepper, Hershey, Nintendo of Canada and Tim Hortons. We love making award-winning work, but the best part of Craft is our culture. Case in point: earlier this year, PRovoke Media named Craft the Best Agency to Work For in North America.

Positioned between Senior Account Manager and Vice President, our Account Directors are hands-on leaders who set the strategic direction, provide senior client counsel and stay closely involved in bringing the work to life.

You'll work closely with senior leadership - one role will report into me, while the second will report into SVP Jordana Wolch.

The Opportunity

  • Leading the development of campaign ideas and taking ownership of the strategic planning and ideation process
  • Providing strong, hands-on oversight over the execution of those ideas, ensuring that every touchpoint supports the identified strategy
  • Keeping tabs on the details - time and money! - through the management of workback schedules, status reports and budget trackers
  • Serving as a role model to teams and the broader agency, and motivating teams to deliver great work - even in the face of roadblocks and challenges
  • Providing sharp, insightful client counsel and building deep and trusted client relationships
  • Serving as the people manager for one or two team members, providing ongoing coaching, feedback and support for their growth
  • What You Bring to the Table

  • You bring significant experience leading public relations or integrated communications programs, ideally in an agency environment
  • You’re a confident people leader who enjoys coaching others and helping them grow
  • You have high standards, and you’re always looking for ways to raise the bar
  • You’re deeply curious - about your job, and about the world around you
  • You act with empathy and care about supporting your teammates as both people and professionals
  • You’re a passionate collaborator, on the lookout for ways to work together with your clients and your colleagues to bring amazing things to life
  • The Process

    Applications are due by noon on September 22. In your cover letter, please let us know what excites you about the idea of joining the Craft team.
