Who
The Account Supervisor is honest, approachable and outgoing. This jack-of-all-trades enjoys a collaborative and flexible work environment; the ideal candidate is comfortable in a smaller company. He or she is open, creative, and willing to learn. This person carries a positive attitude while being balanced and intuitive. He or she doesn’t gossip or pull others down. This person has a sense of humor, a fun personality and is personable.
However, the Account Supervisor knows when to work. He or she consistently provides the highest quality of work and possesses a strong work ethic. This person is a highly motivated self-starter who is committed to the success of the group. Not only is he or she willing to do what it takes to get the job done, he or she inspires others through their work. The Account Supervisor is a driven go-getter.
It’s essential that this person multi-task while knowing how to prioritize. The Account Supervisor sees the big picture, is deadline-sensitive and takes ownership of the project. He or she is resourceful, knowledgeable and thinks outside of the box. This person isn’t afraid to leave his or her comfort zone or admit failure.
This strategic thinker is detail-oriented and organized while keeping a bigger perspective than just the task at hand. Being a good communicator, both orally and written, means that this person presents well. He or she is a good coach, teacher and leader – but knows how to follow, too.
