Reporting into: Head of Social Excellence
About Ogilvy:
Ogilvy UK has been creating iconic ideas that deliver impact at scale for clients ever since David Ogilvy founded the company in 1948. The agency specialises in bringing together brand advertising, customer experience marketing, PR, influence and consulting, all fuelled by Behavioural Science. Our world-class award-winning creative campaigns deliver solutions for clients including Sainsbury's, Lloyds Banking Group, Madri, Unilever and Mondelēz International.
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 the Role:
We are looking for a proactive and detail-oriented Community Manager to lead community engagement and social management for a major global B2B tech client. This is your invitation to become the eyes, ears, and voice on social for some of the biggest brands in the world. We aren't just looking for a manager; we are looking for a creative force to join us at the most creative place in the world.
As our Community Manager, you will sit at the intersection of creativity, data, and culture. You will be the heartbeat of the brand, translating high-level strategy into daily interactions that matter. Whether you are navigating the corporate tech landscape for a global giant or sparking joy for lifestyle and beauty brands, you will have a front-row seat to the industry's most exciting work. You will work side-by-side with award-winning creative teams, helping to shape the brand story through real-time engagement, "social pulse" insights, and bold community-first ideas. If you are ready to be the frontline of creativity for global clients, this is where you belong.
In this role, you will act as the voice of the brand, managing daily "in-the-weeds" execution - from posting and scheduling to crisis monitoring and response. While the role is execution-heavy, it requires a strategic mindset; you will be responsible for translating social intelligence into actionable insights, managing client relationships across the globe, and working closely with our Ogilvy US counterparts.
What You'll Do
Account Management & Client Relations
We believe in building powerful teams with purpose - and we relentlessly curate transformative initiatives that make our commitment to fairness, and equity a reality.
Our ultimate mission is to leave a positive impact on the world, creating a better future for all, while supporting and uplifting the global communities we serve. This is central to our mantra of Borderless Creativity.
Ogilvy is an equal opportunity employer and considers applicants for all positions without discrimination or regard to particular 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.
