We're hiring! Account Executive position

Essential skills are:

• Digitally minded: you’ll enjoy the digital and social media side of marketing, taking a keen interest in how brands are communicating themselves across these platforms and keeping up to speed with the latest developments. Any experience of programmatic, email or marketing automation platforms would be a real bonus.
• Confident communicator:  firm but friendly; we’re looking for someone who will positively represent us, building rock solid relationships with clients, suppliers and journalists. 
• Organisational excellence:  completing tasks and activities to brief, on time and within budget is at the heart of your role. You’ll have superb organisational skills, be comfortable with figure work and be able to handle multiple projects at once.
• Eye for detail:  you’ll be the type of person who instinctively plays ‘find the typo’ and really cares about how we present ourselves as an agency.
• A ‘Clear’ attitude:  We have ambitious growth plans, so need someone who’s hungry for us all to succeed, works well in a team and has a positive, can-do attitude. You will be able to live out the line ‘the difference is clear thinking’. 

 

Tasks typically involve:

• Social media: Building monthly schedules of content. Developing reports on results. Monitoring influencer channels for potential content shares.

• Copywriting: researching and writing articles, blogs and press releases as well as being able to brief our copywriting team and feedback/edit their work

Working at Clear:  We’re a small-ish team of bright individuals - finding the right person to join our team is vitally important to us.  Working hours are the normal 9.00am - 5.30pm and we actively promote a culture of leaving on time - of course there are times when high profile projects and tight deadlines require all hands to the pump.
