Agency :
Host/Havas
Job Description :
Havas Host is on the hunt for an awesome Senior Planner to join our Sydney-based agency.
We’ve changed immigration for entire nations. We’ve uncovered new and shifting values for Australians. We’ve created #1 charting podcasts, #1 charting songs and #1 charting apps.
We work with global clients like Tourism Fiji, Fiji Airways, IKEA, Blackmores and Avis Budget Group, alongside brilliant local clients including Stockland and Tassal. We’re pretty proud of the work we’ve achieved with these clients, in fact we’ve redefined what advertising agencies are capable of. Oh, and we have some of the highest culture scores in the industry.
We’re also part of the Havas Village, bringing together Creative, Media and PR. That creates a huge amount of opportunity to learn from different disciplines, collaborate with different kinds of thinkers and solve bigger problems for some amazing clients.
But for excellence to come out, excellence has to go in. And that’s where you come in.
We’re looking for a brilliant Senior Brand Planner to join our strategy team.
Our strategic philosophy is called Unusual Works.
We believe the best creative work starts by identifying the usual. The category conventions, assumptions, behaviours and accepted ways of doing things that everyone else has stopped questioning.
Then we look for the unusual. A different way into the problem that can unlock a disproportionate creative and commercial opportunity.
So we’re not looking for someone who simply takes a brief and turns it into a strategy deck. We want someone who loves getting underneath a problem. Someone who can interrogate the brief, understand what’s really holding a brand back and find the Unusual Starting Point that gives creative teams somewhere genuinely interesting to go.
That means being comfortable moving between culture, consumers, categories and commercial reality. Knowing when a brand needs an evolution of what it already does well and when the opportunity demands something closer to a revolution.
About Havas
The Havas Village is a unique model — creative, digital, content, PR, media and partnerships, all under one roof. We build teams around our clients’ needs, not our own structures, with offices in Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane.
At HAVAS, we are committed to building a future that is inclusive to all, where you can bring your whole self to work and feel valued, respected, and supported to succeed. We encourage people from diverse backgrounds, identities, beliefs, age, and abilities, including Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, to apply for this or any role with us.
We look forward to meeting you.
If this sounds like you, we’d absolutely love to hear from you.
