Although we represent some of the world’s most recognisable brands in the world we have an informal nature. Behind hard work is hard play and we like to have fun both inside and outside the office. Games nights, pizza, pub quizzes and film nights are the usual order of the day. It’s a fast paced, challenging and dynamic environment where no two days are the same. There are no walls, glass prisons or segmented desks here and the only person likely to be micro managing you, is our resident Chief of Staff – Loki the Bichon. The position is a 3 month contract starting immediately (with the opportunity to become permanent). Salary is dependent on your skills and experience.
