At Barkley, we are on the front lines of a world-class idea company. We are looking for a Brand Leadership partner who is prepared to change the trajectory of brands by creating the conditions for world-class design work.

As a fundamental part of the overall team, this person is reliable, responsible, and passionate about the client’s business and the work we do for them. This partner has an eye for detail, can multitask like no other, and works with teams to deliver a high standard of quality and accuracy in all the work. This partner is fueled by outcomes and seeing the work perform in the marketplace.

A BM at Barkley is seeking to learn from every project they touch - whether they are playing a supporting role or a lead role in a smaller project. They have a desire to understand the many steps of advertising and Barkley’s approach to whole brands. They are taking responsibility for some key steps in the process and expected to both deliver accurately, but also with the anticipation of what might be needed to deliver the best quality work on time as a team.
