Senior Strategic Planner

This is your chance to work with Silicon Valley tech giants and Australian icons. Setting the agenda with global and local marketing teams. Influencing the brand experience of millions of users around the world. 

This role combines the opportunity to work hand in hand with our clients and internal teams to develop insight driven narratives, inform creative briefs, design digital experiences and find ways to communicate to both B2C and B2B audiences.

There’s no other agency in Australia that delivers the breadth of strategic work we do.

It’s a fast paced and constantly changing environment. We need people who are entrepreneurial and hungry to collaborate to deliver great work. If you’re looking to grow and stretch your strategic skill set from a specialism into a broader generalist capability, then this is the role for you.

What underpins that is a people first culture. We’re probably the nicest place you’ll ever work at.
