Account Supervisor (Agency)
Indexed description
Build brands. Drive the work. Grow with us.
Trout Creative Thinking is an independent brand and creative agency founded in
Australia more than 30 years ago. Today, we work across Australia and the United
States, helping organizations build distinctive brands and deliver marketing that drives
real business growth.
In the U.S., Trout partners closely with the Reece Group – one of the world’s leading
plumbing, HVAC, and building products suppliers. While we collaborate deeply with
Reece’s marketing teams, we operate as an external agency, bringing independent
strategy, brand thinking, and creative expertise.
Our Dallas office is the hub for Trout’s U.S. growth. As we expand, we’re looking for an
Account Supervisor to lead day-to-day client work, manage programs, and keep
projects moving – acting as the connector across client, strategy, and creative to
ensure alignment and momentum.
This role reports to the Group Account Director and is ideal for someone with agency
experience who is a strong doer and client leader. Able to build trusted relationships,
understand the business, and apply brand strategy to the work.

Think Beyond Execution
