Location:

Salary Range:
The salary range for this position is $60,000 - $73,000.

o We approach challenges with courage, resilience, and an openness to new ideas. We encourage
respectfully pushing boundaries, thinking outside the box, and proposing bold, innovative solutions, even if they come with some risk. Being brave also means standing up for what we believe in, respectfully challenging the status quo when necessary, and speaking up for others.
• Integrity: We are honest, transparent, and hold ourselves accountable in all that we do.
o We consistently follow through on commitments, speak up when something feels off, and
communicate openly, even when it’s challenging. We take responsibility for our actions and
decisions, are willing to admit mistakes, and are always aiming to do the right thing. By exemplifying integrity, we build trust within our teams and with our Clients, laying a foundation of reliability and respect across all our interactions.
• Generosity: We create a collaborative, inclusive environment by supporting, celebrating, and uplifting each other with kindness, compassion, and empathy.

collaborative and supportive environment where we lift each other up. Generosity also means being inclusive, welcoming diverse perspectives, and showing empathy for others’ experiences and
challenges.
Commitment to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion:
The strength of our creative capability and innovative thinking has led to some of the world's most celebrated, effective, game-changing work for top brands. Maximizing that strength means bringing together an extensive mix of socially, culturally, and cognitively diverse talent — and creating conditions where they feel empowered to boldly share the fullest expression of their unique worldview. We fiercely believe in the power of creativity and innovation to positively influence society and inspire greater equity and inclusion within the communities we serve. So, every day we deliberately and intentionally choose to embody our global philosophy of Conscious Inclusion and, in turn, fuel our mission to help brands earn a meaningful role in people's lives
