About Billion Dollar Boy Billion Dollar Boy (BDB) is a global creator agency, using industry-leading tech solutions to deliver integrated, creator-led advertising and end-to-end campaign management.

Since its inception, BDB has partnered with some of the world's leading brands - including Heineken, King, Nintendo, PepsiCo and L'Oréal - connecting them with more than 10,000 vetted content creators. BDB client campaigns have been awarded at the Cannes Lions, Influencer Marketing Awards, Webby Awards, Shortys, The Drum Awards and Adweek. Our Culture Our mission is to redefine advertising by reflecting culture through the voices of creators, where creativity is democratized, and technology is the driving force behind impact. We champion equity and inclusion, and believe that diversity sparks creativity, problem-solving, and well-being. Along with fostering these values, BDB is committed to being the most innovative creator marketing agency in the world through initiatives like FiveTwoNine and Muse. Our Values We believe one of the biggest issues advertising agencies face is reputational. Our vision is to change that by setting a new standard of advertising with a greater social purpose, where creativity is democratised, and technology drives efficiency and effectiveness. Billion Dollar Boy has identified industry problems and potential solutions, leading to a set of Future Behaviours that should be adopted by every agency to positively change advertising as a whole: Work with brands, but on behalf of people - Brands are clients, but agencies must prioritise people's interests, educating brands on consumer importance and acting on behalf of the people. Seek out less heard voices, act upon what they tell you - Diverse opinions and perspectives improve work and the world. Agencies must actively listen to and act on a broad range of voices. Be fair to everyone, then you'll have nothing to hide - Agencies should ensure objective and transparent reward structures to promote equality. Treat your clients like friends and employees like best friends - Clients provide opportunities, but employees turn them into work. Agencies must prioritise employees' wellbeing. Solve problems with a curious mind - Creativity involves original ideas. Agencies should explore unproven solutions and take risks for better outcomes, even if things aren't broken. Empower employees with a framework for freedom - Provide supportive structures without restrictions, allowing employees to make decisions and control their career progression within clear business parameters. Equal Opportunities We encourage employees to be open and confident and appreciate that every member of the team makes a vital difference. Billion Dollar Boy embraces equality, diversity and inclusion and will seek to promote these benefits in all of our business activities.

Be part of the executive team reporting to the CEO Maintain governance and management practices across Nacro About Our Client At Nacro we believe passionately that everybody has a right to a second chance, where everyone can fulfill their potential. Our core belief is that a good education, a decent job and a safe place to live are what everyone in our society deserves. For those who end up in prison, it's the start of new chance, not a road to nowhere. We all know that having somewhere to live, a job, good health and connections mean someone is much less likely to commit a crime. Sadly, a growing number of people who enter prison are homeless; thousands have mental health problems, drug addictions, are unemployed and/or have bad experiences of the education system. For far too many this stays the same when they're released. This isn't inevitable. As a society we believe that there should be consequences for those who break the law, but we also believe that those who end up in contact with the criminal justice system should be given the support they need to be able to turn their lives around after serving their sentence. Nacro sees that by removing the barriers and giving the right support, thousands of people have the chance to rebuild their lives and their families, and to contribute to our communities. We believe that everyone should have the best chance at a second chance. In the next year, Nacro is likely to reach a turnover of c£100m. This is a growth of over one third in three years.
