ACCOUNT MANAGER
Brendan Ravenhill Studio is seeking to hire a new member of our sales team. This is
not your typical sales job, this is a creative problem-solving position that requires an
attention to detail, strong organizational skills, good judgment, and a drive to do
something different. You would be joining our small studio and would be responsible for
helping us grow. We are looking for someone ready to put in the extra effort, to notice
when things don’t work and offer solutions, to work smarter not harder. The ideal
candidate will have demonstrated experience in sales and communication. We’re
looking for someone who’s creative, ambitious, tireless, charming and persuasive. You
should be strong in clarity and tone, great with people, and enthusiastic about design.
You will be expected to work seamlessly with other members of our team and represent
the studio as a collective. Creative problem solving is a must, as is an ability to adapt
and innovate quickly.
