Account Executive- Full Cycle

Plein Air Agency, Dallas, TX, United States


About Plein Air Plein Air is built on a simple belief: the best ideas come from real experiences with real people. Our name is inspired by the French painting movement en plein air, where artists left the studio to paint landscapes directly within their environment. We believe proximity to insight is far more powerful than proximity to collaboration. For us, the office isn’t a building- it’s wherever you go to see, learn, and create.

Description We are a fully remote team that thrives on autonomy and a "get it done" attitude. At Plein Air, we measure impact, ideas delivered, and value created. We solve the tangible and intangible problems that stifle growth, always thinking in the context of the full customer experience. To succeed here, you will be opinionated, good-natured, and proactive.
