The Praytell Advantage

Why join Praytell Australia? 

• We’re a global agency that’s just warming up in Australia.

• Creative isn’t just a department here. We’re constantly looking for ways to improve the way we work, challenge the status quo, and leave the industry a little better than we found it. That culminates in our global DEI initiatives, including our inaugural Praytell Intownships program here in Australia.

• We have a flexible time off policy which includes 20 days annual leave per year, in addition to Christmas to New Year’s Day as gifted holidays. Need more? Let’s talk. 
• Parental leave benefits and flexible return to work arrangements that we’re proud of.
