Senior Account Executive

Edelman is a voice synonymous with trust, reimagining a future where the currency of communication is action. Our culture thrives on three promises: boldness is possibility, empathy is progress, and curiosity is momentum. 

At Edelman, we understand diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging (DEIB) transform our colleagues, our company, our clients, and our communities. We are in relentless pursuit of an equitable and inspiring workplace that is respectful of all, reflects and represents the world in which we live, and fosters trust, collaboration and belonging.

We’ve got great clients, huge brands, a brilliant international network and lots of awards across the Sabres, Cannes Lions, AIM Awards, Digital Media Awards & PRCAs to name a few. We’re powered by world renowned data and insights.    

We come from different backgrounds and have different perspectives which allows us to be better collectively than we are individually. Over the years we've grown and evolved with the world around us, driven by a passion to find ever better ways to connect audiences and make a positive impact on the world around us.  

We believe the answers start with posing the right questions so if you're driven by questions like “Why not?”, “So what?” or “What next?” then you're our type of person.
