Beck & Stone is a brand management agency located in downtown Manhattan, with a client roster rooted in the publishing, education, and software industries.
We are actively seeking a full-time Junior Strategist.
What You Do
Strategists at Beck & Stone are multi-faceted team members, involved in many of the agency’s functions, from the creative and promotional to the analytical and operational.
You might be writing copy for client social media channels on a day-to-day basis, as well as email campaigns, direct mail pieces, and more. There may also be requests for corporate communications like case studies, blog posts, and internal documents.
Data is the basis for making informed recommendations to clients based on those insights. In addition to your creative endeavors, you will handle the reporting and analyzing of data in order to judge the success of advertising campaigns or user experience implementations.
Finally, you will work closely with the partners, being mentored to eventually become a full-fledged brand manager.
Who You Are
You are a sharp, organized individual, a perfectionist: with an ability to follow process to the letter, with critical thinking skills to craft new processes in order to maximize both the client’s results and your own performance.
You are a generalist who stays on top of industry trends and learns new skills to stay competitive, but who understands their limits and respects those who have skills different than yours.
You shape your work and your schedule around deadlines to ensure they are met with quality work without exception.
Finally and perhaps most importantly: you are a communicator. You respond to emails promptly and professionally. You speak warmly, but directly. You read, not simply react to feedback and your own recommendations are made in the same analytical manner. You’ve been called a “grammar nazi” and “know it all” and relish it because you know you are right.
There is a fire in your heart, but ice-water in your veins.
What You Need
- A year or more of experience working as a professional in a service-based industry
- Resume and / or portfolio, with at least two recommendations
- College degree
What We Can Offer
- Flexible hours based on your productivity
- Competitive pay
- Engaging, productive work environment
- “Space” to flex your ideas and a say in the execution of them
- Self-managed lifestyle
