Company Description


We are PG ONE.

We are the ideas, production and media for over 30 of the world’s most known and loved brands from the world’s biggest advertiser, P&G (Procter & Gamble).

When you see Pampers, Gillette, Head & Shoulders, Fairy, Ariel, Always & Braun to name a few, that’s us.

We are made differently to conventional agencies as we believe in the power of togetherness. Under one roof you’ll find creatives, designers, strategists, account teams, producers, project managers, data scientists, PR & advocacy teams and media talent, all working as one.

And you’ll find a culture of pushing new boundaries to solve the most complex business challenges. We call this culture “Dare to be Different” and we are very proud of it. Because we know you have to keep breaking new ground, without fear, to be successful.


Job Description

It’s a combined role across two exciting brands, with the majority of time spent on Pampers UK and a smaller percentage on Aussie UK. So, having your finger on the pulse of UK sentiment and culture is a must. No two days will be the same, it’s fast paced and fun, and we want someone who is comfortable and confident to manage multiple projects & stakeholders at any one time. Someone who is proactive and always thinking two steps ahead about how we can go above and beyond client expectations. You will be key to ensuring our integrated creative, comms and media team deliver best in class activations with digital first thinking like our #PampersForPreemies campaign.

  • You’re a cultural engine: contributing to fostering a culture where everyone can enjoyably collaborate on producing the very best work.
  • You are passionate about developments in the digital landscape, continually upgrading your understanding of what and how this can be leveraged for your client.
  • You ‘dare to be different’ to help drive innovation and fresh approaches.

  • Experience collaborating with media owners on campaigns for YouTube, Meta, TikTok.
