Sign up with Clera and we'll reach out the moment a role actually fits you — no more spraying applications into the void.
Support account teams in delivering integrated campaigns for consumer brands through coordination, writing, and media relations. Manage account materials, conduct research, and assist in the execution of influencer and experiential workstreams.
Requires 1+ year of relevant experience in PR or marketing, preferably within an agency setting. Candidates should possess strong writing skills, attention to detail, and a deep interest in consumer trends and pop culture.
At Ruder Finn, Brand Experience is where bold ideas meet business impact. We create integrated campaigns that connect brands with people through culture, creativity, earned influence, and unforgettable experiences. We believe the best work comes from curious minds, collaborative teams, and people who aren't afraid to challenge convention – or have some fun while doing it.
We’re looking for an Account Executive to support account teams and help bring client programs to life through account coordination, writing, research, media relations, monitoring, reporting, trend spotting and project management.
This is a client-facing role for someone who is detail-oriented, curious, organized, and excited by brands across industries such as food, wellness, lifestyle, CPG and retail. This team member will contribute to client work and support the growth of existing engagements.
Just as importantly, you'll help shape the culture of our practice. We value people who ask great questions, embrace new perspectives, experiment with fresh ideas, and believe that the strongest teams are built on trust, generosity, and a shared sense of purpose. We work hard, celebrate wins, learn from every challenge, and genuinely enjoy creating great work together.
If you're energized by fast-moving brands, love tracking trends and pop culture, and want to help define what's next for modern brand communications, we'd love to meet you.
