Who Are You?
You are seasoned in media relations, the client go-to, and are starting to work on account strategy when not flawlessly executing a FAM or Media Mission. You play a crucial role in not just delivering big hits, features, and profile stories for clients, but also begin taking a bigger role in helping Account Leads manage the team and leading in-person client-facing interactions. At this stage, the ideal person has solid media relationships in place (in both regional and national markets), meets with media regularly, and is constantly concepting pitch angles based on sound research to get media engaged and excited. In this role, the ideal candidate will take proactive ownership, overseeing the strategy for media relations-focused tasks, looking at accounts holistically to understand what is needed, and then jumping in for team members at all levels to help / alleviate where needed.
The Role
As the Account Supervisor, you are now considered management at J/PR, which means you’ll have the opportunity for both tactical account management, as well as broader leadership where you can offer coaching, guidance, and career support to your account teams. You’ll have the opportunity to be the day-to-day lead on smaller accounts, managing internal delegation, while also starting to step into account strategy with a Director’s help. This means you’ll own the process for creating year-long strategies for our clients (putting together the template, delegating slides, and leading creative brainstorming) and will also be learning how to anticipate the client’s needs before they even ask. You’ll be busy attending FAMs and Media Missions, are beginning to join pitches for new business, and are upping your media relations game to focus more on KPIs and bigger placements and stories. This is the level where you’ll also start handling the contract renewal process, as well as new contracts for new clients/new business. You’ll also regularly attend industry events and raise your hand to participate in webinars and virtual events when able.
