Account Executive

MSL is a global public relations firm focused on building influence that delivers meaningful impact for business and society. We bring together strategists, storytellers, and creators to help brands and leaders earn attention, trust, and relevance in a public environment shaped by platforms, algorithms, and generative AI. Our work is grounded in a simple belief: influence isn’t about volume or visibility alone. It’s about shaping how people perceive, talk about, and act on what brands put into the world. That requires deep audience understanding, strong judgment, and communications that feel credible, human, and timely.

Across markets and categories, we partner with organizations of all sizes to navigate change, build connection, and strengthen their role in culture and community. It’s our people, their curiosity, craft, and care for the work, that turns strategy into stories and ideas into lasting impact.

Join us as an Account Executive and help shape stories that make an impact. You’ll collaborate with a dynamic team to craft bold, strategic campaigns for some of Canada’s leading brands—driving results across PR, social, and influencer marketing. In this role, you’ll be the connector, the storyteller, and the strategist, building strong client relationships while delivering measurable ROI.
