Account Executive

THE ROLE Our Account Executives own smaller workstreams and support bigger ones. They’ve already cut their teeth for a year or two and are ambitious, forward-thinking, and itching to lead in a fast-paced agency. AEs keep us moving, working with both mid-and junior-level clients and our internal teams across disciplines on day-to-day account operations. They help Jr. AEs get their bearings, support senior Account folks on larger projects, and support the Partners on agency initiatives. AEs team up with Project Managers on workflow and are our Quality Assurance experts (QA), blessing the accuracy of everything that leaves the building – adhering to briefs, objectives, and deadlines, at the strategic and creative quality expected from 3Headed Monster. AEs jump right in owning projects as the client/agency liaison for local store marketing, retail, print, digital, and social.
