Project Manager
ABOUT THE AGENCY:
David&Goliath is an agency that adheres to one simple philosophy: Brave. To be brave, to inspire people and brands to take on their goliaths. To create lasting impact that the world can feel and truly embrace. This is our purpose and for over two decades, we have never wavered from it. We are not made for everyone. We are made for the few who believe that purpose isn't just a business proposition, but a way of life. And for those who believe we can achieve the unthinkable, together. David&Goliath is a collaborative, empathetic, and team-oriented culture that believes in taking on challenges that others might walk away from. Because, the truth is, nobody ever became great without first being brave.
WHAT WE LOOK FOR:
In one word, PASSION. Be passionate about advertising and marketing with an insatiable appetite to learn. Be passionate about great creative and doing work you can be proud of. Be passionate about the work you do -- extreme attention to detail is a must. Be passionate about yourself - go for it! Believe in yourself. Be proactive. We’d rather you try and fail than to have never tried at all.
