in a nutshell

As a people’s person, you have a keen sense of emotional intelligence and can communicate with anyone from the most junior to the most senior members of an organization with ease. You take ownership of and drive projects forward understanding the role of various stakeholders and know what resources to pull-in to achieve a certain outcome. You partner with various departments within our organization (business development, brand development, creative and senior leadership) and beyond our organization (agency, client and research partners, vendors and contractors) to strategically define the sound of our clients and manage projects from kick-off through integration. Your day-to-day responsibilities will be focused on creating trusting and long-lasting client relationships, offering a strategic lens to creative development, providing internal and external project management and identifying new business opportunities. With your positive attitude, a professional approach and time management & communications skills, you seamlessly juggle multiple deadlines in a mostly remote environment. This position will work out of the NYC office.

You will be a key member of, and collaborator with, the Client Services Department (CX) and you will report to the Group Account Director.

 

about MMS and our commitment to anti-racism

Born from entertainment, Made Music Studio serves all audiences by creating iconic and enduring music and sound. We make commercial art that’s culturally connected. And as a company and individuals, we value respect, belonging and mutual trust.

It is a fact that people of color and other marginalized groups are underrepresented in our industry including at MMS. We are committed to being an anti-racist company that disrupts, dismantles and demands more of individuals, institutions and ourselves. As a part of this commitment, our hiring framework seeks untraditional talent not defined by education level or corporate experience, but by life experience, track record, and skill.
