We’re looking for an account manager to lead direct mail and direct marketing for large existing clients. Account managers should have at least 5 to 10 years of experience with direct response, mail and production, along with a degree in communications, marketing or another related field. Agency experience isn’t a must, but it’s a definite plus.

You’re a leader who’s all about the details — those little things that usually go unnoticed — no matter how many conversations and versions and updates are up in the air. You can dive into the business side of an ask just as comfortably as you can advocate for great creative. And of course, your projects are always on strategy, on budget and on time.

We’re a full-service agency with offices in Des Moines and Sioux Falls. At the heart of our success has always been human creativity. The role of brilliant individuals, and their original ideas, remains just as relevant today as when we opened our doors 40 years ago. That’s why we continue to take care of our own like we take care of our clients.
