Account Executive

Getting up on Monday morning is energizing when you love your job. If you’re a true “ad soul” who thrives on juggling projects, wearing multiple hats and finding the best way to deliver client solutions, LOOMIS could be your new agency home. We work hard with a passion for what we do, but we also believe in balance and having fun together.

Still reading? Good! We hope that means you’re an account exec with a few years under your belt, but you’re ready for a new challenge. LOOMIS is looking to add to our pack several, sharp, passionate individuals to work on various retail, healthcare and restaurant accounts.

Let us share with you our wish list for this role: our ideal candidate is someone who loves the fast-paced agency life. Who appreciates the importance of a solid plan, but secretly loves the thrill of a last-minute pivot. Someone with a head for strategy and a heart for the craft of client service. Who can lead when needed and follow directions down to the details.

Someone with a learner mindset who believes there is no finish line for learning and self‑improvement.

We don’t do silos around here, and we count on everyone to think creatively and contribute ideas. This is the kind of place where if you bring your curiosity, creativity, and passion every day, it will be matched by a talented team who loves what they do and who they work with.

Our agency exists to help underdog brands think differently, fight smarter, and find new ways to win. LOOMIS has been listed on The Dallas Morning News “Top Places to Work” list for 8 years running. We really want our agency to be a place our pack loves to work and — let’s be honest — our dog‑friendly environment is a big part of that.

Feel free to bring your (well‑behaved) pup with you on our in‑office days (Tues/Wed/Thurs). Mondays and Fridays, they get to WFH with you.

Here’s the thing – we’re an enthusiastic group with a strong culture you won’t find at most other shops. We genuinely believe when our employees succeed our clients will, too. Everything we do is focused on that success. If we’ve convinced you that LOOMIS needs to be your new agency home, let’s talk a bit about the specifics:

Do you have…

• At least 2-5 years of experience, either client or agency side, working on multi‑unit retail brands
• A history of being a conduit between the client and agency’s media and creative teams
• Experience partnering with clients to develop strategic plans across all touch points: online (social, email, web), in media, and on‑premise
• Experience communicating effectively with the Creative team to inspire the best work
• An understanding of the workflow process, ability to evaluate creative work against the brief and provide constructive, actionable feedback
• An understanding of the media process (including flowcharts) and the impact media has on creative needs, production, and budgets
• A clear understanding of the production process (for print, broadcast, digital, still and video production, and promotions)

At the highest level, successful account executives must possess the ability and skill to manage the agency’s day‑to‑day relationship with client contacts. If you’re the right person, you probably already know what this means, but here’s what we’ll ask of you:

• Earn and keep each client’s respect and confidence as a trusted advisor who brings value to the business through a strong commitment to success, consistent performance, and the ability to develop a wide range of ideas and solutions
• Demonstrate confidence and authority as the day‑to‑day voice of the agency team
• Craft compelling and inspiring creative briefs
• Define project scope, create estimates, and work with PM to create project specifications and time plans
• Ensure team members have accurate information needed to perform the work requested
• Contribute to the work with thoughtful feedback
• Manage execution of assigned client projects with respect to prioritization, timeliness, accuracy
• Contribute to the creative process; add ideas to the work to make it better
• Refuse to relegate yourself to “paper pusher”
