Everything we do at DRUM is born out of the pursuit of understanding, creating and making popular culture for brands - so as strategists it's vital that we're both interested in the wider world and have a distinct point of view on it. Our planning team is tasked with understanding who our clients' audiences really are, what makes up their cultural sphere of interest - what they talk about down the pub, watch on Netflix, discuss with mates, and play on Xbox Live - and then connect that with the brand's POV. It's about working out how to weave a brand's story into stuff people actually care about, not the other way around. We are looking for a Senior Strategist who obsesses over culture.

As such your visual and analytical communication skills should be able to take the complex and make it simple and digestible for both strategic and creative audiences An independent, self-sufficient streak. The questions you are answering don't always have a 'traditional' way of doing things. You'll be building your own path. What we offer DRUM are Omnicom Media Group's multi-award winning content agency providing leading strategy, consultancy and creative solutions for clients - dedicated to helping ambitious brands create and influence popular culture. We believe that the best work not only grows brands, but also enables brands to contribute something to the culture of our times.
