Anvil is a boutique integrated marketing agency in Portland, Oregon and we are seeking an addition to our team of marketing ninjas. Think you want to join us? Read on and get in touch if you fit the bill.
About You:
You are a full-fledged marketing junkie that can’t stop thinking of ways to strategically service your clients so they are constantly being delighted and elevated. The status quo isn’t good enough for you because you are a creative thinker, you see the big picture, and you find better, more cutting edge ways to reach the desired result. Additionally, you enjoy working with others as well as providing guidance to team members on how they can move their accounts to the next level. Not only do you have a list of industry blogs that you read daily in order to keep up on the latest digital platforms, tips, tricks and industry news, you also like to write and speak about them. You aren’t afraid to push the envelope with new ideas or ways of doing things. Working at an agency is ideal for you because you like fast paced and demanding work, but also a fun and rewarding environment. If this isn’t you: we’re sorry. It wasn’t meant to be. Nothing personal, we’re just picky.
The Director of Strategy role at Anvil:
As Director of Strategy, you will develop, refine and lead the overall strategy for the agency’s core services (search, social and analytics), help our clients move their business forward by identifying strategic opportunities for account growth, and support the sales team with new business opportunities. You will also collaborate with the Director of Account Services, and guide team members to recognize opportunities to push the strategic envelope on accounts so clients receive world-class work. Additionally, you’ll train the team on newly developed services so they can advise on and provide excellent service to clients in-house. You will also write and speak on pertinent industry topics and regularly attend events when appropriate.
