Edelman has been on an exciting journey of transformation, evolving from a traditional PR agency into a cutting-edge communications marketing firm. Our growth reflects our passion for innovation and excellence, and we’re looking for exceptional talent to join us on this adventure.

At Edelman, we live by four core values that drive everything we do:

Relentless Pursuit of Excellence

Courage to Do the Right Thing

Freedom to Be Constantly Curious

The Commitment to Positively Impact Society

If these resonate with you, we’d love to hear from you!

We’re on the hunt for an Account Director to drive success for a diverse portfolio of corporate clients. This is an opportunity to step into a pivotal leadership role where you’ll be a trusted advisor, providing strategic counsel across the communications and marketing spectrum. You'll have the autonomy to shape client relationships and deliver impactful results, working with a dynamic and collaborative team.

What You’ll Do

As Account Director, you’ll play a key role in our integrated team. Your responsibilities will include:
Building and nurturing strong client relationships while leading strategic planning and execution across multiple accounts.
Anticipating your clients’ needs by identifying opportunities, mitigating risks, and providing proactive, forward-thinking counsel.
Acting as a champion for your clients within Edelman, ensuring their business goals are understood and aligning them with Edelman’s expertise, insights, and best practices.
Leading and inspiring integrated account teams, including specialists across disciplines like digital, earned media, crisis management, and more.
Overseeing budgets, forecasts, and account operations with confidence, while proactively managing challenges.
Staying on top of industry trends and market developments to keep your strategies fresh, relevant, and impactful.

What You’ll Bring:

We’re looking for someone with:
8–10+ years of experience in public relations, corporate communications, or integrated marketing, ideally within an agency setting.
A strategic mindset and a strong track record of success in corporate reputation management, executive profiling, digital/social media, and advocacy programs. Bonus points for experience in corporate branding, employee engagement, or broader marketing initiatives!
Exceptional relationship-building skills, especially with executive-level stakeholders.
Proven ability to mobilize and inspire multidisciplinary teams across planning, creative, analytics, and media specialties.
An understanding of the unique roles of marketing (CMO) and communications (CCO), with the ability to navigate and integrate both effectively.
A “hunter” mentality when it comes to identifying opportunities, building client trust, and driving growth.
A strong network across industries, media, and business to keep your strategies cutting-edge.

Why Edelman?

You’ll be joining a team of innovators and collaborators who are passionate about what we do. We value creativity, curiosity, and courage, and we’re committed to helping our people grow. This role is your chance to build a rewarding career with the support of a global network and a world-class team.

Ready to Apply?
