ABOUT THEEWORD

At theEword, we’re creating a world where everyone can find their place. We help property companies increase leads, fill beds, generate footfall and sell homes, with the vision to be the #1 global digital strategy agency for property companies.

We do this by using marketing intelligence and audience insights to deliver high-performing digital marketing strategies.

DESIRABLE SKILLS

WHAT MAKES US DIFFERENT

We want to get the best out of our team; we have a sensible hybrid working and flexitime policy that allows you to be in an office when you want, but work remotely when it's more productive. You can expect to be in the office at least 2 days a month and when required for client face-to-face meetings.

We’re a supportive growing team, and we’re big on training and self-improvement. We have an annual salary increase scheme, an annual holiday purchase scheme, your birthday off and an extra day of Annual Leave for each year served.

We enjoy quarterly social events, but we don’t enforce socialising. We respect our team’s work-life balance.

For our clients, the big difference is our approach to strategy. We run discovery and strategy creation workshops, we create strategy playbooks that align with our client's goals then we adjust and optimise based on real-world data. Our campaigns perform better because we dig deep into our clients' businesses and their customers, so we understand the buying cycle and our client's customers' pain points.

We work with clients who value the way we work, not being afraid of experimenting with new ideas and tactics to get the best results, and who see us as an extension of their team.
