Junior- Midweight Producer

We’re McCann Worldgroup’s best-kept secret. With more than 50 of us located within McCann UK’s Bishopsgate HQ. We’re rapidly growing and we're just getting started.

We're hungry, driven, ambitious and always pushing ourselves for more. Armed with our attitude-focused proposition ‘For The Restless’, we want to raise awareness of who we are, what we do, and how we do it because we genuinely believe that our progress to date, is just the start.

There’s plenty to shout about - we’re global lead agency for a major airline, recently producing their new brand positioning and subsequent campaign. It’s standout work that we’re very proud of, but only the start of a five-year journey together. We also create work for MasterCard across Europe, global integrated creative for the Egypt Tourist Board, and all kinds of creative for Predator gaming, Allergan, ACER, the Electoral Commission, Refuge, Hargreaves Lansdown and PlayOJO, among others.

The work we’re doing is getting bigger and better every month. You can see a showreel on our website, although it’s a few months and already about ten campaigns old!

Our commitment to equal opportunities.
For us, diversity is a business imperative – one that must be embedded into every aspect of how we operate in order to drive success. Simply put, we believe an encouraging and inclusive environment makes sound business sense.

As a globally integrated community that influences and shapes culture, it’s vital that the talent mix in our agencies encompass all dimensions of diversity, and that we demand the same of the people we work with.

Conscious inclusion encompasses social, cultural and cognitive differences and cultivates an ethos of belonging, connection and shared purpose. It is the integration of this philosophy that allows us to create meaningful experiences for our employees, drive better business practices with our vendors and clients, and ultimately lead with purpose.
