    Job description

    Bloom is a full-service workplace design consultancy representing Craft Public Relations on their search for two Account Directors to join their team. As Talent Advisors, we will be the liaison between you and Craft Public Relations during this recruitment process. We do not use fancy tech to search through resumes at Bloom; every resume is reviewed by a human to ensure that we support a consistent and equitable interview process. You will directly join our client’s team if you are selected as the successful candidate. We look forward to seeing your application!

    Craft Is Hiring: Account Director

    Hi, I’m Ali Azzopardi, a Senior Vice President here at Craft. Over my decade with the company, I’ve watched us scale from five people to a team of nearly 50 incredible humans. And now we’re growing again: we’re looking for two new Account Directors to join our team. Could this be you?

    A bit about Craft: Lisa Pasquin founded our agency ten years ago with a clear goal - to create an inspiring environment where people do great things together. Today, we’re proud to partner with brands like Keurig Dr Pepper, Hershey, Nintendo of Canada and Tim Hortons. We love making award-winning work, but the best part of Craft is our culture. Case in point: earlier this year, PRovoke Media named Craft the Best Agency to Work For in North America.

    Positioned between Senior Account Manager and Vice President, our Account Directors are hands-on leaders who set the strategic direction, provide senior client counsel and stay closely involved in bringing the work to life.

    You'll work closely with senior leadership - one role will report into me, while the second will report into SVP Jordana Wolch.

    The Opportunity

    • Leading the development of campaign ideas and taking ownership of the strategic planning and ideation process
    • Providing strong, hands-on oversight over the execution of those ideas, ensuring that every touchpoint supports the identified strategy
    • Keeping tabs on the details - time and money! - through the management of workback schedules, status reports and budget trackers
    • Serving as a role model to teams and the broader agency, and motivating teams to deliver great work - even in the face of roadblocks and challenges
    • Providing sharp, insightful client counsel and building deep and trusted client relationships
    • Serving as the people manager for one or two team members, providing ongoing coaching, feedback and support for their growth

    What You Bring to the Table

    • You bring significant experience leading public relations or integrated communications programs, ideally in an agency environment
    • You’re a confident people leader who enjoys coaching others and helping them grow
    • You have high standards, and you’re always looking for ways to raise the bar
    • You’re deeply curious - about your job, and about the world around you
    • You act with empathy and care about supporting your teammates as both people and professionals
    • You’re a passionate collaborator, on the lookout for ways to work together with your clients and your colleagues to bring amazing things to life

    The Process

      Applications are due by noon on September 22. In your cover letter, please let us know what excites you about the idea of joining the Craft team.

      Interviewing at Craft Public Relations includes:

      1. Phone screen with a Talent Advisor from Bloom
      2. Virtual interview with Ali Azzopardi and Jordana Wolch (60 mins)
      3. Complete a short, at-home Craft assignment designed to help us understand how you approach strategy, ideas and client counsel.
      4. In-person interview* with Managing Director, Melissa Retty, and Skylar Gomes, Senior Account Manager (45 mins) followed by a final conversation with Lisa Pasquin, President (15 mins)
      5. Reference checks
      6. Offer

      *This interview will take place at our office at 50 Carroll Street in Toronto’s east end

      Like Bloom, Craft is committed to a fair and equitable hiring process for all candidates. To ensure that each candidate’s journey is consistent and the selection process is unbiased,

      To help us provide every candidate with a consistent and equitable experience, we ask that all applications and recruitment-related questions be directed through Bloom rather than to individual members of the Craft team.

    About the company

    Bloom

    Similar to a desert before a rainstorm, we believe that developing countries are full of potential waiting for the right conditions to unleash a superbloom (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superbloom) of creativity and positive impact. At Bloom, our work weaves together elements of entrepreneurship development, impact innovation and social entrepreneurship around local and global challenges and the SDGs. We believe in transformative educational experiences supporting personal growth and the pursuit of meaning, soft / universal skills ( “entrepreneurial skills” ) development, and in the process build rich collaborations and communities of practice across geographic boundaries. Our hope is that through these efforts we can contribute to the development of positive, inclusive, and sustainable communities and economies, and to a superbloom, indeed superblooms, of opportunity around the world.
