CHARLIE OSCAR

Charlie Oscar is a digital growth company built to transform brands and underpinned by marketing science.
We combine data, technology and creativity to advise and execute digital marketing strategies that break the status quo for the world’s most ambitious brands. Put simply, we transform growth.
At first glance, it may seem unusual for influencers to be a department within a growth company. It usually raises a few eyebrows. But every day we’re proving to brands that influencer marketing isn’t just a trendy, buzzword-filled, brand channel that comes with uncertain ROI. It is one of the most powerful performance levers for growth.
It all starts with understanding how influencer activation actually impacts a business’ bottom line. Our proprietary attribution suite, COmpass, gives clients that very insight. Put simply, we’ve solved the age-old ROI battle of Influencer marketing. Yes, you read that correctly. We’ve solved it. We’re enabling brands can get closer to the truth than ever before.
Using COmpass, our team of experts are deployed to provide the best strategy and execution, helping brands to optimise influencers as if it were a paid channel. For example, we know exactly which niches, sizes of influencers, and what type of content, can provide the most revenue uplift. We’re performance-first, balanced with the belief that data allows brands to further enhance the core creative spirit of influencer marketing.
At Charlie Oscar, we like to select team members based on attitude and culture add. While we value experience and expertise, we want to work with people who are eager to challenge the status quo and driven to consistently deliver best-in-class output.
We believe in work-life balance and prioritise team well-being. We work hard but also make time to bond as a team, have some fun and socialise. We do quarterly social events and an annual company trip away to recharge and spend quality time together. The team work together in our London Bridge office, and from home.
