Do you want to solve problems, think differently, and influence culture? We do, and that’s why we need people like you to join us!
At Ogilvy, we believe in the power of behaviour change and this is at the heart of our communication planning. We need the bright sparks and the wild thinkers to join our team, and Goliath is our way of finding these people.
Goliath is an opportunity for those wanting to kick-start their careers with Ogilvy. We will give you the tools, knowledge, and, most importantly, the opportunities to create work that can change minds, change lives, and sometimes change the world.
This is a permanent opportunity for two superstars to join our Account Management team while getting the opportunity to go behind the curtain and experience all the Ogilvy pillars: Advertising/ Brand & Content, Ogilvy PR, Ogilvy Health, and Ogilvy One.
About the Role
Ogilvy Sydney is looking for two Goliath's to work with the agency’s largest account. The account is fast-paced, expanding across multiple touchpoints in each campaign, and packed with growth opportunities. You will be immersed deeply in the business and support the team across a range of projects, spanning both brand and retail activity.
Your focus is supporting the team in the day-to-day management of the account, to ensure a seamless and superior level of service is delivered to the client every day
Key Responsibilities
- Handle day-to-day administration of the account, including internal and client WIPs, meetings, minutes, cost estimates and records.
- Support the team in delivering large campaigns at speed and high quality – sourcing inspiration, researching, developing creative debriefs & production briefs, and coordinating timelines.
- Ownership of projects with the support of an Account Manager or Account Director – digital briefs, research tasks, creative re-runs.
- Keep the team informed on work in progress, recognising issues early and pre-empting them.
- Develop a thorough understanding of the client’s brand and its competitive environment.
- Work with internal stakeholders to get things done on time, on budget and at the right quality, including peers across departments and disciplines.
Who can apply?
Anyone passionate about the creative industry and solving real problems for clients in unique and creative ways. No specific qualifications are needed; just a curious mind, hunger to learn, proactive approach and of course just a lovely human who wants to work with a bunch of other lovely humans!
How to apply?
Persuade us about something. Anything!
Be as outlandish as you like, and use whatever resources you want (AI, videos, vox pops, slam poems, Tinder Profiles, Spotify playlists). Just show us how you think, and why we should think differently. Oh and, we will need a CV.
