    Description


    Sunshine Sachs Morgan & Lylis is proud to represent clients across many industries including entertainment, social good, tech and lifestyle and we tell their stories through a variety of mediums.

    We know that even during the toughest times, our responsibility to our clients and each other can bring meaningful and long-lasting impact for those affected the most.


    We're proud of each and every campaign we execute, but you may be wondering why we don't have more than a landing page as our website.

    While many of our clients are household names (you know them, we're sure of it), our digital footprint is purposefully small.

    We fly under the radar and we like it that way.
    If you are fired up and ready to do good, join us
    We have an immediate opening for an Account Director

    in our New York City office. You have an extensive media network and excel at managing client account teams.

    You are a go getter and a doer with great EQ and IQ with experience leading communications and marketing strategies, counseling clients and managing multiple teams.

    You are probably a PR specialist, but you understand how to counsel a client (or teammates) across the full spectrum of a client's public facing persona including partnerships, social media and celebrities/influencers.

    This is a role for someone who has a specific interest in helping drive corporate strategies and narratives, building the profiles of top CEOs and thought leaders, and having a seat at the table in building brands and pushing clients to exceed expectations.

    You have Fast Company, WSJ, TechCrunch, and Bloomberg bookmarked on your browser, but also want to work with some of the top minds across entertainment, social good and pop culture and be at the center of where all these things converge.

    Our candidate is curious.

    They see this as a challenge and opportunity to grow their skills.
    Our account directors lead accounts (no surprise there), counseling the client, providing fresh ideas, motivating the team, ensuring goals are being met still pitch


    Our agency is integrated, and our Account Directors frequently work on accounts that involve aspects of brand integration, influencer integration, digital strategy, etc.

    While we don't expect you to be fluent in all of these areas, we anticipate that this will excite you

    Leading account teams and managing projects from start to finish.
    Developing and executing comprehensive integrated media and communications strategies.
    Developing an impactful and trusting relationship with clients

    Participating in new business meetings, creating proposals as needed.
    Training and mentoring junior staff on the inner workings and executions of PR, media relations, and overall client management.
    Responding to client requests and ensure requests are taken care of in an efficient manner.

    You Should Apply If:
    You have at least

    8 years

    You've managed a team with direct oversight for at least 2 years (of those 8 mentioned above).
    You have demonstrated success in securing top-tier press placements that have an impact on the client's bottom line.
    You know how to navigate financial stakeholders, thought leaders, and media.

    You are a strategic partner with internal and external stakeholders and can think outside the box to create insightful and impactful media moments.

    You believe yourself to be excellent at pitching new business – confidence is key
    You are a strategic thinker, bring new ideas to the table, and love a good brainstorm.
    You have strong decision-making abilities and accountability; this is an important role, own it
    You have an innate curiosity and an entrepreneurial spirit
    You are incredibly organized, detail oriented and able to excel at managing multiple projects simultaneously.

    $90,000 - $102,000 a year

    Salary commensurate with experience; plus benefits (below)
