At first blush, one agency looks the same as a thousand other agencies. We have art directors; they have art directors. We have strategic leadership; they have strategic leadership. We have a pool table; who doesn’t have a pool table? That’s where the similarities end. We couldn’t be like any other agency if we tried.
SmithGifford is a marketing agency, but we’re also a brand, recognizable because of the humanity evident in our work – whether the job at hand is creative, strategic or being a client’s extra set of hands in a warehouse. We seek and nurture humanity in the work we produce and the people we hire, a tight collective of exhaustive thinkers and prodigious talents.
You’re known for your strategy and leadership prowess. Your you-make-it-all-look-so-easy organizational skills. You bring years of experience and lessons learned to the table but are eager to continue learning and growing. “Thinking like an owner” is something that comes naturally to you and is tremendously appreciated by your clients. You are a clear and authentic communicator and develop relationships with clients and colleagues that stand the test of time. Able to see the bigger picture, you delegate when necessary, but have never lost your attention to detail. You love to mentor up and coming members of your team and are as invested in their success as you are your own.

Were you the one who made sure the work got done in a group project? Is checking something off of a to-do list intensely satisfying? Do you get that warm, fuzzy feeling when a team pulls together to carry a job over the finish line? Are you in search of an introduction to agency life and what advertising really looks like behind the scenes? Pull up a chair, and let’s talk about being an Account Coordinator at SmithGifford!
