Why Work At AgencyPPC?

• Experience a multitude of industries and work directly with market-leading brands: We work with market-leading brands as well as everyday SMBs. Our accounts are varied and bring different challenges to the table. Every day is different and fresh. We typically work deeper engagements with our clients (vs. light touch management) to improve their account performance and solve complex business issues, so a typical client load is 2-12 clients per specialist.
• Accelerated Career Paths: As a smaller agency, expanding our leadership team is a high priority and the internal team is prioritized for these roles.
• 99.9% Remote Position: We operate 99.9% remotely, but with most of the team in the north suburbs of Chicago, we occasionally enjoy a lunch chat or on-site client meeting when possible (although rare). We hope to maintain this possibility with local (to IL) candidates.
