CREATIVE TEAM – MEERKATS

Meerkats is on the hunt for a mid-weight creative team.

Ideally 2-4yrs agency experience (agency = ad agency, design agency, digital agency, etc.) y’know, a young team who’ve now got that first agency experience under their belts and learned the basics about concepting, presenting, strategy, media planning, etc… but feel the need to step up and prove themselves on bigger brands.

We’re after switched-on passionate kats who believe in conscious capitalism and making a difference through the power of truth, not gimmicks.

Email mike@meerkats.com.au.  Folios welcome but more interested in who you are as a person, what drives you, what you believe in.
