Senior Account Executive, Technology - San Francisco

Senior Account Executive - Technology

You're killing it at your first or second job and looking for new challenge, somewhere where you'll be empowered (and expected) to be incredibly hands on with all aspects of program planning, execution and evaluation, with assignments that let you leverage your love of new technologies, creative storytelling and media on a daily basis.

Welcome to SHIFT. We're looking for people like you to join our technology practice to help our clients get their message out and connect with the people who matter them through insights-driven narratives, creative platforms, thought leadership initiatives and content delivered across the paid, earned, social and owned media ecosystem.

Here, you'll be part of a team charged with crafting integrated, data-driven campaigns for emerging and established brands; interfacing with colleagues, clients, media and influencers daily; you'll also be part of an agency committed to rethinking and redesigning its approach to communications every day; where good ideas are listened to no matter their source, and where all colleagues have two things in common : a passion for doing great work, and the thrill we get seeing that impact that work has on a client's business.

Here's a bit more about what we're looking for, what you'll be doing and what it takes to succeed at SHIFT.

What You Bring

• BA or BS in PR, Communications, Journalism or Liberal Arts.
• Three to four years' experience in an agency or other fast-paced client environment (agency preferred).
• A real passion for emerging technologies and the changes they're bringing about in how we do what we do, and more broadly across business and society.
• A natural digital- and mobile-first mindset to all you do.
• Ridiculously strong oral, written and interpersonal communications.
• An insatiable curiosity combined with an innate ability to think critically that translates into creativity, founded in strategy, that you can apply to our programming day in and day out.
• Current knowledge of and comfort operating within and across the PESO media landscape.
• Juggling skills. Seriously, you'll be expected to keep a lot of balls in the air, with each progressing towards an on-target, on time and on budget delivery.
• The self-discipline to take direction, focus on tasks and deliver on commitments.
• The self-awareness to know when to listen, when to speak and when you've said enough.
• A genuine thirst for learning, self-improvement and personal growth.
• A fierce competitive spirit that compels you to play to win at whatever you're doing.
• The ability to work independently while working collaboratively towards a common goal.
• A willingness to actively contribute to making our agency a better place to work.
