Digital/Social Lead – International Communications Agency

Do you thrive off doing inspiring work, coming up with a better, more creative answer to a problem? Then keep reading. We’re looking for a Digital and Social Lead (anywhere from SAD – Director level, we are open to various levels) for this international, integrated communications agency. 

Say goodbye to silo’s –  you’ll work across a range of clients here, from some of the biggest names in technology such as Tinder, Nokia and Dell to consumer brands such as Pepsi and Jack Daniels.  The briefs could be pure consumer or focus more on a corporate/b2b offering/audience – what matters is that you’re plugged into the latest developments in social to produce ideas that wow clients and create iconic campaigns.

More About the Agency

Integrated: Although many agencies claim to be integrated, this one truly is. Having rebranded several years ago as a marcomms agency, they continue to focus on real integration and cross working of teams to deliver the best results. With capabilities across Communications, Strategy, Creative, Design/UX, Social/Digital & Content, they have a client centered approach, creating blended teams around specific briefs.  The result? Real integration; and the right team to deliver inspiring and best in class work.

Full service: The agency is full service, with teams/specialisms across corporate communications, consumer and technology (b2b and consumer) with hugely recognisable blue chip names.

Global: The agency is part of a global network with over 130 people in the UK office.  

Culture and Benefits: In the last few years, the agency has undergone a merger with its sister agency which has added to its client base and global reach. It’s a relatively flat structure with a warm, collaborative culture where people are encouraged to challenge the status quo. In terms of benefits – you’ll get UNLIMITED holiday plus gym, private healthcare and more.
