SENIOR PLANNING EXECUTIVE

OUR VISION 
Spark Foundry. Famously Effective. Not one or the other, both. The thrill of the idea made better still by the pride of watching it work. A magnetic combination. Attracting clients that become advocates and talent, driven to deliver. Award winning and business changing. But a vision cannot be realized without the right ingredients.

You need diverse thinkers and diverse thinking. We call this Allsorts. This helps us tackle obstacles through different disciplines and perspectives. You need to thrive on the belief that great ideas are only great if they work. It’s not enough to be new, or cool, or interesting. Our solutions need to drive a business result. Everything else is vanity. You need to embrace both the art and the evidence. Right and left. Imagination and activation. Insight and technology. Big ideas, forensically measured.

All that while being a good human? Sound like you? Sound like where you’d like to be? We’d love to meet you.

OUR VALUES

• Allsorts – We believe it takes Allsorts to get magical work. Diverse thinkers and diverse thinking. In what we do and who we are.
• Art and Evidence – Great ideas are only great ideas if they work. We believe it takes both Art and Evidence to thrive in the industry today. It’s one thing to dream it but another to prove it and it’s only great if you can do both.
• Royalty Makes Loyalty – There is a return on treating clients and partners like royalty. Nurturing clients’ businesses, listening to their needs and delivering excellence at every step allows us to build lasting and rewarding relationships.
• Good Humans - Decency in everything we do. Be a Good Human, Always. No matter who you are or who you think you are.
