Account Supervisor (NOLA) - bread & Butter PR
New Orleans, LA
About the Job
Who we are:
bread & Butter is a full-service communications agency with a fondness for all things food, drink and travel. We are a collaborative group of dreamers and do-ers. We combine intimate local knowledge with an extensive national network to craft clever and multidisciplinary communications campaigns tailored to our clients’ needs. We only partner with inventive businesses that inspire us and continually challenge us to think big, but act small.
Why bread & Butter:
We are Southerners at heart, always saying, “Please” and “Thank You,” and hustlers by trade. We believe everyone deserves a seat at the table and practice what we preach to ensure the spirit of hospitality runs through everything we do. We're not a company that wastes time—not yours, not ours. We are not too busy to talk, come by or think of new ways to increase long-term brand awareness. For us, there is little difference between work and pleasure because our work is our pleasure.
We’re Looking at You!
An Account Supervisor with bread & Butter is a media ninja, ball juggler, task master, industry insider and has a proven background working with top talent in hospitality. You serve as the talent authority, acting as a mentor and inspiration to junior team members while nimbly managing up to your leaders. You listen to your clients, can shift course midstream, are resourceful and can help guide your team to get from A to Z. You read everything from the New York Times to Us Weekly and like to go big – because going home isn’t an option. You’re working to be a problem solver and you value the relationships you’re building with media and industry friends. An Account Supervisor for bread & Butter should be fast-moving, a strong writer, possess an almost obsessive attention to detail, have an eye on the prize and, most importantly, is excited about what bread & Butter is and what it will be.
Opportunity:
An Account Supervisor for bread & Butter is responsible for overall strategy for clients, overseeing and performing national media outreach and coverage, as well as managing account teams on a day-to-day basis. Account Supervisors will serve as liaisons between the Account Director and the account teams. Account Supervisors oversee the work of Senior/Account Executives and Assistant Account Executives and report to the Account Director.
Here’s What we Need:
On the whole, this is an office-based role. An Account Supervisor will spend time in meetings and briefings. Occasional travel might be required for client visits and planning. Although a supervisor’s commitment will tend to be standard office hours, deadlines or the demands of a client may see the supervisor working nights or weekends to ensure continued success. Must be authorized to work in the US.
