Edelman need a junior planner...

There won't be lines. Promise.

Hello there.

This is kind of an odd posting. Edelman, the company I work for, are after a Junior Planner.

Now, it's an odd one for me, because the person who gets the job will be working with me, as we're a tiddly department. I will have to *gulp* train and look after them.

So, naturally, we'd like to find someone who is so sharp and so laterally minded that they scare me on a daily basis. We're after a graduate; no prior planning experience is required, but those who can prove to us that they can think laterally/have heard of the internet/have a point of view about brands and why they're important will be crucial.

The Junior Planner's job does involve a lot of research; some of it will be bespoke, random stuff, and other bits will be more prosiac. (How many people eat margarine in the UK, for example).

There's a helluva lot more detail here. The deadline's the 30th of June. Best of luck.

A bit of a different one....

It's just like this, honest.

Hello there. Thought I should drop you guys a bit of a different post than the usual advertising job opening.

I've recently moved agencies to a PR shop called Edelman. Now, we're hiring in our digital team, and one of the roles specifically calls for a grad.

Now, I bet you're thinking - this is a blog for advertising/media jobs? Well, this role is more like a typical digital agency position, and so I thought it'd make sense if I put it up here. It's an ideal role if you have an interest in digital communications, and want to be involved in the wider communications mix.

Details are here, and there are other jobs here if you're interested.
