Culture Analyst – remote possibility

ABOUT OGILVY SOCIAL.LAB

Ogilvy Social.Lab (OSL) is a full-service advertising agency headquartered in Brussels’ WPP Campus. As part of the international Ogilvy network, our operations span four continents with over 15 nationalities on the 130-strong team working in our offices – our mindset is borderless.

It is has become imperative for brands to keep up with the speed of culture – and use culture as a shortcut to create connection & relevancy.

But ‘culture’ is an incredibly broad, multi-layered term. To succeed in a culture-first way, brand must understand & navigate the cultural context surrounding us. This is achieved through active tracking and assessment of culture as it plays out in real-time.

We are looking for a Culture Analyst – someone that loves identifying cultural trends & insights (data backed) that can be used as fuel for building potent strategies for our clients and in pitches.

The Culture Analyst will typically work with other Strategic Planners from across our global Ogilvy network.

This is an entirely new role – one that we are tremendously excited about!

The Culture Analyst will have access to our current data & intelligence stack to uncover valuable cultural insights to fully benefit our strategy teams.
