Who are The&Partnership?

At The&Partnership, we bring ideas and technology together to power brands and businesses. As one of the world’s fastest-growing independent agency networks, we are increasingly known for developing bespoke new agency solutions for clients across the globe.

We call this the &Model and the premise is very simple. Agency Creative, Strategy, Media, PR and Data/CRM, all working side by side, solving problems as one collaborative team with the client.

A rapidly changing market requires a radical new approach to marketing. We work alongside our clients’ marketing departments – often with other agency partners – in new, nimble ways to deliver highly creative, data-driven work quickly and efficiently.

Backed by the might of WPP and GroupM, we’ve seen record growth over the past two years – expanding across 17 new markets and doubling in size against a challenging industry backdrop.

Our ambition is to be the most important place in our people’s careers, and with a model that sees some teams embedded with clients, others ‘beside clients’ or in one of our head offices, there are plenty of opportunities for variety and stretch.

You’ll be:

• managing projects from brief through to delivery, including digital, social, DOOH, print, press campaigns
• working closely with the project and account management teams on briefs, and supporting creatives
• an authority during stressful moments, able to communicate priorities to relevant people
• developing strong relationships within the agency at every level
• on top of projects going through your accounts regardless of the level of your involvement
• organising and running creative/wider team WIPs, and ensuring approvals/creative sign offs for the best quality work
• working ad hoc on creative projects such as art buying, image sourcing, talent sourcing e.g. photographers/animators etc.

Skills/Experience

• good interpersonal skills, able to deal with people at all levels
• use of own initiative and to work autonomously
• strong communicator
• excellent organisation and multi-tasking skills
• adaptability and flexibility
• keen attention to detail for deliverables

The&Partnership embraces and celebrates diversity, inclusivity, and equal opportunity. We are committed to building a team that represents a variety of backgrounds, perspectives, and skills. We are a worldwide creative agency that represents global clients. The more inclusive we are, the more brilliant work we can create together.
