About you

• Minimum 10+ years of experience working agency side or in-house.

Core Values

• Always be two steps ahead – of your clients, of your team, other agencies, the industry, even of yourself. We’re a fast-paced, ever-evolving agency and you’ll need to be flexible, adaptable and solutions focused to not just keep up, but stay ahead. And by the way, we work quickly, not carelessly. Attention to detail is critical.
• Make sh*t happen – It doesn’t matter what your job title is, you’ll need to be able to roll up your sleeves and get your hands dirty when there’s a job to be done.
• Be a big dreaming realist – we love big thinkers, dreamers and What If-ers. Positive, passionate people who will never settle for anything less than excellence in their work – be it a big creative idea, a media strategy or a budget. But this must be balanced with reality. Be as creative as you like, but never sell anyone, be it a client or a colleague, an impossibility.
• Have ambition without ego – perhaps the most important of our values. Be ambitious. Be restless. Be awesome. But check your ego at the door.

The benefits of working with us

• Flexible Working: Work from the office 3 days a week, with Mondays and Fridays at home.
• Free Coffee: every Tuesday.
• Yearly Creative Retreat: A chance to disconnect, think, and bond outside the office.

We create an environment where all our people belong, and can thrive, adapt, learn and grow because we are in the business of making a meaningful difference to people; and that’s good business.
