Account Supervisor

PR Account Supervisor – Consumer & Lifestyle Brands 

First, a little bit about us

LPR is a boutique communications agency based in Hoboken, NJ. Named to PRNews 2024 Agency Elite Top 100 and PR Week Best Places to Work for the last three years, we are known for our results-focused approach and exceptional client service. We are savvy storytellers, media matchmakers, and social trendspotters; big thinkers and bold doers. We love what we do – and have a lot of fun doing it.

We’re in search of an exceptional Account Supervisor to join our team and represent some of the world’s most iconic consumer brands in the family, toy, and lifestyle industries. This position plays a vital role at our agency and includes leading a motivated team, developing strategy, managing clients and projects, and building relationships with key media contacts and influencers.

Note: LPR has a hybrid work policy. Employees are required to work in our Hoboken co-working venue every other Thursday and for as-needed client meetings. LPR provides employees with a laptop, monitor, and software to work from home; the agency also pays for employee cell phone service.

Now, a little bit about you

You’re experienced, and ready to elevate your career in public relations. Withat least 7 years of experience under your belt, you’ve worked with consumer/lifestyle brands and are seeking a leadership opportunity. Your responsibilities will include building and maintaining client relationships and managing scopes, budgets, and your team’s work. Agency experience is a must; previous work with toy or family brands is a plus.

You enjoy mentoring and leading a motivated team. From coaching junior staff to mentoring across the agency, you’ll invest in your team’s professional development and prioritize their growth as individuals.

You understand how to provide oversight and keep track of the details. As Account Supervisor, you’ll be responsible for managing workflow across a portfolio of clients, overseeing projects from inception to completion, and ensuring deadlines, budgets, and quality standards are met. If challenges arise, you’ll know when to adjust strategy and tactics to meet overarching objectives.

You know how to tell – and place – a good story. Tapping into traditional media, nano influencers and everything in between, you’ll concept creative hooks, build on-brand partnerships, and host events to bring your clients’ stories to life. With a keen understanding of your clients’ goals, you’ll set the media strategy and leverage your contacts to land that winning placement.

You’re social savvy. Working across social platforms on both organic and paid campaigns, you know the value of influencers and how to navigate the landscape from capitalizing on trends to negotiating deliverables. You understand affiliate marketing and how PR can utilize it as part of the overall strategy.

You’re a creative and critical thinker. From playful concepts to plus up new business proposals to innovative new approaches to client plans, you bring thoughtful new ideas to the table and can be scrappy and resourceful when you need to be.

You take pride in partnership. Nurturing client relationships is a large part of this role. From setting KPIs and tracking progress during regular status calls to maintaining a deep understanding of your clients’ needs and providing counsel, you’ll be their ‘go to’ advisor.

Why you’ll love it here

We believe life comes first. Hybrid work policy, flex hours, paid holidays, generous paid vacation time, up to 20 weeks parental leave, and time to rest and recharge while the agency is closed between Christmas and New Year’s. We do not count sick days (for physical or mental health) and you get to choose one month each year to “Work from Anywhere,” fully remote. Oh, and did we mention that you get PTO for your birthday and the agency closes at 1pm on Fridays – all year long?!

We have fun. A lot of fun.  Our co-working venue boasts its own barista, monthly lunch mixers with a DJ, and a view of the Manhattan skyline. We love to get together in and out of the office and find lots of reasons to celebrate (and eat snacks) throughout the year. A day at the salon, a murder mystery “date night,” and an annual holiday party tradition are just a few examples!

We celebrate each other and our community. There is a dedicated ‘Big Thinkers, Bold Doers’ chat where employees share kudos and gratitude. We host monthly LPR Happenings, a catered lunch where we highlight recent successes and share helpful insights. We also pay it forward; employees are encouraged to participate in agency-led volunteer projects throughout the year.

Your voice will be heard. Our senior team sets the tone for the agency, from maintaining high work standards to fostering our unique agency culture. We strive to provide a collaborative, creative environment where each person feels encouraged to contribute to our processes, decisions, planning, and culture. 

We provide room for growth. We invest in our team and are seriously committed to professional advancement (our weekly StormShops and monthly Litzky Labs provide the foundation). Need proof? The President of our agency started as an LPR intern!

We offer great benefits. In addition to a competitive salary base and compensation plan, we offer a great health insurance program. Employees are eligible for long and short term disability benefits, life insurance, commuter benefits, a medical flexible spending account, and a 401k program.
