Company description

Spark Foundry is a global media agency that exists to bring HEAT – Higher Engagement, Affinity, and Transactions – to brands. By combining flawless media fundamentals with aggressive innovation, Spark inspires consumers to pay more attention, to care more about our clients’ brands, and to buy more products and services from them.

Balancing the nimble spirit of a startup with the powerhouse soul of Publicis Media, Spark Foundry delivers the best of both worlds to a client roster that spans some of the world’s best and most beloved brands and companies. We combine boutique-caliber insights and service with the buying clout and first-look access of a global leader, bringing the heat to challenger brands that want to act like giants, and to giant brands that want to act like challengers.

With a bottom-up culture that celebrates diversity and aims for all voices to be heard, Spark has become a magnet for the industry’s best talent, with one of the best retention rates in the industry. And by applying a whole-person approach to professional and personal development, Spark develops a workforce that is well prepared for today’s challenges, and also poised to create meaningful careers in the years to come.

Because we know that heat arises the intersection of complementary forces, our professionals come from myriad disciplines and backgrounds: data, analytics, and insights, content and creative production, communications and strategy, finance and marketing, and sociology, psychology, and other liberal arts disciplines.

  • Identify “big picture” insights in research to help develop a compelling pitch “story”
  • Leverage expert knowledge of Spark brand positioning and credentials to build and guide the pitch approach
  • Train, manage, and develop Associate-level direct reports
  • Bring your “A” game along with unwavering attention to detail with every effort

Qualifications

  • Relevant experience – 3+ years of agency, media, marketing, or communications experience
  • Strong communication skills, with the ability to develop and manage strategic written and verbal communications
  • Superb project and time management skills with the ability to operate in a fast-moving, high-pressure environment comfortably and effectively with hard deadlines
  • Solution-oriented and innovative mindset with a go-getter attitude
