Investment Associate - Expressions of Interest

at  Advertising Industry Careers

Initiative is different to other media agencies. We are not trapped by a legacy structure primarily centred on paid advertising. Instead, we are liberated by a new world structure designed to deliver highly differentiated and highly effective communications strategies for our clients. We’re not the biggest agency in town. So rather than outsize our competitors we must outsmart them. That’s why we’ve built the strongest strategic capability of any agency in the market. Core to this strategic capability is an obsession with culture and how brands can pivot from advertising (which is forgettable) to cultural branding (which is highly memorable).
We’re always looking for talented individuals to join our team. While we don’t currently have an official opening for Investment Associate, we’re building a strong pipeline of passionate and skilled professionals for future opportunities.
