Company Description

Speakeasy is a communication consulting and executive development firm with offices in Atlanta, San Francisco and New York. Since 1973, we’ve been helping executives and their teams achieve greater business results through more effective communication internally, with their colleagues and externally, with their clients. Our individual clients include some of the most recognized business leaders in the world. Notable current clients include Accenture, Cisco, Ernst & Young, The Coca-Cola Company, State Farm Insurance, Microsoft, Centers for Disease Control, and Kimberly-Clark. Our clients are focused on the critical role powerful communication plays in transferring knowledge and vision, inspiring others, and ultimately, driving the bottom line.

Job Description

We are seeking a Director of National Accounts with a minimum of two (2) years experience in business/client development.

We offer the opportunity to be part of an organization where you can make an impact and where the individual matters.
