Receptionist/Account Assistant

Redpoint Marketing PR is a boutique public relations firm that specializes in travel, hospitality, home furnishings, and interior design.  We are currently seeking a new hire for our 15-person office, for the dual function of receptionist and account team support.  General responsibilities range from supporting account teams with media and client relations needs to answering phones and greeting guests.

 

Redpoint offers a casual, yet professional environment.  Some of our clients include Princess Cruises, Loews Hotels, Monaco Tourism, and The Shade Store.  We help these clients get publicity in major national and international media, which means we must pay significant attention to detail and be precise in all that we do.

This position is one of the most critical we have here at Redpoint.  The person in this role is often the first point of contact with callers and guests, and so above all, this person must be personable, confident, and possess excellent communication skills.  In addition, this person must also be adept at Microsoft Word, Excel, and Powerpoint. Redpoint handles several high profile events for clients, so the person in this position must feel comfortable assisting with the planning and coordination.

We are seeking someone who enjoys the role of being a "host."  In this position, you will be interacting with every single person at Redpoint -- and our clients and media contacts -- every day, and you must have the patience and determination to jump into projects when client needs get fast-paced and demanding.  Yet, you also must be able to develop and manage your own workload when things slow down and there is time to devote to projects that are important, but have no deadline.

If you think this position suits you, please send us a letter telling us why you think so, along with your resume.  If you'd like further information about Redpoint, please see our website at www.redpointpr.com.  We look forward to hearing from you.
