Come Work With Us
Located in the heart of downtown Boston, The Pohly Company is a diversified marketing and publishing services company and is recognized as one of the leading customer communications companies in the country. We help our clients build quality relationships with the people who matter most to their businesses. In producing top-notch work for our clients and subscribers, we rely as much on our smarts and our talent as we do on our keen sense of humor, flexibility, teamwork and respect for each other, and ability to have fun, even under deadline.

The Pohly Company is a creative company, and we believe in a very broad definition of the word “creative.” It’s not just the work itself where our creativity shines, it’s also in the ideas that we bring to our clients, the way we approach problems, and even in the way that the company is run every day.

We offer a smart but casual office environment with many added perks, company profit sharing bonus, and an excellent benefits package.

What Kind of Talent Are We Seeking? 
We are looking for a dynamic Account Director who can jump right in and master the knowledge needed to provide senior oversight and day-to-day senior client contact on assigned accounts as needed. Our Account Director will demonstrate expertise in client service, relationship building and project management, and will contribute to new business efforts as quarterback for RFP responses and pitches or as a marketing knowledge contributor.

Our Account Director will take on the management of staff. This includes managing time out of the office, workload, and day-to-day job engagement, as well as more in-depth management activities such as goal setting, development, coaching, and mentoring.

Our Account Director will be someone who enjoys managing the variables in complex situations to achieve the most productive outcomes. He or she will also connect with people in general, and strive to find balance while using past experience as a blueprint for future actions. Our Account Director will be vigilant and deliberate in identifying possible outcomes, and able to explain his or her strategic and tactical thinking in their most basic terms.

Additionally, our Account Director will be driven to accomplish and achieve, with an eye toward results. He or she will be adaptable to change while remaining disciplined in adhering to processes, schedules, and timelines.
