LOCAL Is Growing Our Client Services Team!

LOCAL started as an idea focused on people. A nontraditional agency where we treat employees and their happiness equal to company profit. A thought that culture and employee well-being could drive lasting change within the corporate blender. Where we adapt company's plans into stories that win hearts. Because when employees feel part of a change, they are more likely to own it. 

Well, this hunch, this idea paid off, and after five years, a lot of hard work, a great team, amazing clients, and lots of change, we're growing again.  

We're excited to announce that LOCAL is hiring for an Account Manager positionAPPLY NOW!

As an Account Manager, you'll lead Fortune 500 companies through Change Marketing™ programs while conducting the LOCAL symphony. 

You'll bridge the gap between our clients and internal teams. Understand the art and science of managing client expectations. Brief team members and provide strategic input on deliverables. And harmoniously push the work forward while maintaining that LOCAL craft that keeps our clients happy. 

We want someone who can be an individual contributor with a hands-on, get-it-done attitude. You'll need to have a knack for leadership and problem-solving, be accountable, and be a solid communicator. 

We're very picky over here, and for a good reason — we're a fun, exceptional place to work. You don't have to take our word for it. We're one of Atlanta's Top Workplaces (two years running) and one of Inc.'s fastest-growing companies. Do you have what it takes to join LOCAL?
