- Participate in developing the creative brief, articulating key insights and a clear point of view
- Collaborate actively with account team members to ensure effective connections through all agency disciplines relative to client work
- Commit to 10 weeks (May 31st – August 11th of 2023) of hard work, learning, and fun, day in, day out

- Independent thinking, which you are not afraid to share with the team
- Excellent attention to detail
- Keen curiosity in understanding people and what moves them
