Job Description

EDELMAN - THE WORLD MOVES QUICKLY AND SO DO WE

Allow us to introduce ourselves: we're Edelman Canada, recognized as one of Canada's leading communications firms and proud to be recognized as a Great Place to Work for the last nine years. But we're not your average PR Agency, in fact, we don't even define ourselves that way anymore, because we are so much more.

We develop communications strategies that give our clients the confidence to lead, act with certainty, and earn the lasting trust of their stakeholders. We do this by creating powerful ideas and telling magnetic stories that move at the speed of news, make an immediate impact, transform culture and spark movements.

Our focus on continuous improvement challenges our people to always think creatively and encourages them to learn from successes as well as from what didn't work so well. We encourage our employees to get comfortable with being uncomfortable because that's when the magic often happens. We don't like "yes" people - we celebrate those who engage in honest discussion and debate. Every day, we strive to live and work by a long-held set of core values: the pursuit of excellence, the freedom to be curious, the courage to do the right thing, and a commitment to improving society.

Is this the right place for you? If you like what you've read so far there's a good chance. There is no single type of person at Edelman. We celebrate diversity - of culture, background, experience and thought - and recognize it as a powerful driver of great work. We know we are at our very best when our teams collaborate across not only geographies, practices, and expertise, but also personal points of view.
In short, we hire people that are smart, passionate and curious, and then give them the independence and mentorship they need to flourish. Think you've got the chops? Read on.

Edelman Canada is looking for a passionate, driven and confident Account Manager to expand the Canadian Brand team, working from the Toronto office. You must have an eagle eye for details, be able to grasp complex issues and processes, and show knowledge and curiosity in order to offer qualified opinions on how to translate our clients' visions into reality. You'll have strong communications or marketing, media and public relations experience working with Canadian Brand clients.

Flexible Hybrid Work Arrangement
The post-pandemic future of work is one rooted in flexibility, transparency, and accountability. Edelman Canada trusts you to make the best decisions for you and how you work. That said, we also know it will take time to develop best practices that set us up for success and allow us to bring our best selves to work-either at home or in the office.
Edelman supports a flexible hybrid environment which gives everyone the best of both worlds. While there are currently no minimum or maximum time requirements, each team's need for in-person connection will be different and there will be times you'll join your colleagues/clients at the office to connect, collaborate, and socialize.

Edelman is a global communications firm that partners with businesses and organizations to evolve, promote and protect their brands and reputations. Our 6,000 people in more than 60 offices deliver communications strategies that give our clients the confidence to lead and act with certainty, earning the trust of their stakeholders. Our honors include the Cannes Lions Grand Prix for PR; Advertising Age's 2019 A-List; the Holmes Report's 2018 Global Digital Agency of the Year; and, five times, Glassdoor's Best Places to Work. Since our founding in 1952, we have remained an independent, family-run business. Edelman owns specialty companies Edelman Data & Intelligence (DxI) and United Entertainment Group (entertainment, sports, lifestyle).
