The agency specialises in bringing together brand advertising, customer experience marketing, PR, influence and consulting, all fuelled by Behavioural Science.    Ogilvy’s Influencer marketing practice is the largest globally; we are proud to be the most awarded influencer agency for six years running and the recipient of the Cannes Grand Prix for Social & Creator for two consecutive years.    Ogilvy UK also hosts the world’s biggest festival of behavioural science and creativity, Nudgestock – which is now in its 12th year. James Murphy is the CEO of Ogilvy Group UK, which includes Ogilvy UK and New Commercial Arts (NCA), a boutique creative agency he co-founded in 2020, recently acquired by WPP.      About this role:  Social and content has never been more important for clients. Showing up authentically, with intention, across social platforms helps brands connect with their audiences. It helps them to sell and serve better.  This role provides the opportunity to work on a really exciting client within the technology sphere. You will have the opportunity to manage key campaigns across the year that will involve working with our strategy, creative and production team to deliver best in class campaigns and content.   This role is perfect for someone that has a wide knowledge of social, specifically organic social. They will have experience managing content and campaigns that build brand advocacy as well having an understanding of how to create hard working assets that drive to purchase. The ideal candidate will know how to effectively lead an account, steering processes and ways of working internally, with agency partners and with our clients.  The ideal candidate will have their finger on the pulse across all things social – from what’s trending that could be a good opportunity for a brand to leverage, through to a thorough understanding of how data, strategy, community management feed into the success of a brands social media presence.  Whilst the candidate will have a passion for delivering best in class social campaigns, they will also be required to lead in other areas of the marketing mix, and the idea candidate will have some integrated experience.    A bit about you: We are flexible on whether you have come from an agency of client background, but we think
