Why you’ll love this job We believe that what a brand does is more important than what it says—we want you to help brands do amazing, unprecedented, wild things, creating experiences that people never forget.

Not only that but, within the Activations Team you will be helping manage high-fame and flagship partnerships, with the chance to deliver some of the agency’s primary annual activations. You will work with a highly-motivated team and have access to all departments within the business – here in London, in Manchester and New York City. Total Brand Experience is at the heart of everything we do as an agency, and this role represents the opportunity to deliver a truly global, category-defining example of that.

No day (or hour) is the same and you’ll be across every element of the project meaning the work will be varied, challenging and fulfilling. Why you’ll love doing it at Momentum We are experiences creators and like to entertain with a swagger. We add colour with every idea and every hello (just ask Rambo our reception dog). And that isn’t only for our clients – we wouldn’t have been able to crash twitter (yes we did), float a tennis court down the Thames (it’s true) or turn Alcatraz into a speakeasy bar (we really do make the impossible possible), without our incredible and inspirational team. We ensure the same entertaining spark that has created global award winning work is kept alive internally so creativity can flourish. We really believe a creative idea can come from anyone, anywhere - just ask our ECD about how he nailed an idea in a butcher’s queue or our Talent Director who joined a pitch team for 48 hours – it’s true to say we do things differently. And we like that. Regardless of the job title on this document, you are part of a global team of creative imagineers who have perfected the art of delighting, amusing, engaging, distracting, fascinating, enthralling, charming, immersing and absorbing consumers, customers, staff and clients of all ages and cultures on line and off line through experience.

A brand experience business whose creative work is transforming the careers of our people and our clients like American Express, Microsoft, Premier League, Nestle, SAP and Coca Cola. And whose environments continually foster creativity and new ways of thinking.
