Job Description
Who We Are:
At VML, we are a beacon of innovation and growth in an ever-evolving world. Our heritage is built upon a century of combined expertise, where creativity meets technology, and diverse perspectives ignite inspiration. With the merger of VMLY&R and Wunderman Thompson, we have forged a new path as a growth partner that is part creative agency, part consultancy, and part technology powerhouse.
Our global family now encompasses over 30,000 employees across 150+ offices in 64 markets, each contributing to a culture that values connection, belonging, and the power of differences.Our expertise spans the entire customer journey, offering deep insights in communications, commerce, consultancy, CRM, CX, data, production, and technology. We deliver end-to-end solutions that result in revolutionary work.
The Deal:
VML needs a Content Director to basically run the social media show for our clients. You'll be the brains, the strategist, and the reason our clients don't end up trending for all the wrong reasons. If you can turn internet chaos into marketing gold, we want you.
Your Superpowers:
- Conjure up content so good, it makes people want to see ads.
- Craft strategies that actually work (unlike that diet you started last week).
- Keep clients so happy, they'll name their firstborn after you (maybe).
- Lead a team of social media ninjas (because "content creator" is so last year).
What You Need in Your Utility Belt:
- 7+ years of social media experience (you've seen it all, haven't you?).
- A sixth sense for what's trending (before it's trending).
- Leadership skills (you can herd cats. I mean, creative people).
- A love for social media (or at least a healthy addiction).
- You can explain TikTok to your parents (and they almost understand).
- You've successfully navigated a social media crisis without setting the internet on fire.
- You have a meme for every occasion.
Why VML?
We're a global agency with a local heart (and a pretty decent coffee machine). We value creativity, positivity, connection, and inclusion. Plus, we offer free snacks (sometimes).
If you're ready to rule the social media kingdom (responsibly, of course), apply now!
We believe the best work happens when we're together, fostering creativity, collaboration, and connection. That's why we’ve adopted a hybrid approach, with teams in the office an average of four days a week. If you require accommodations or flexibility, please discuss this with the hiring team during the interview process.
WPP (VML) is an equal opportunity employer and considers applicants for all positions without discrimination or regard to characteristics. We are committed to fostering a culture of respect in which everyone feels they belong and has the same opportunities to progress in their careers.
