NOW HIRING: Junior/Midweight Copywriter (VML Sydney)
Lion vs bear. Which one wins?
Some would pick the lion, a fierce feline with a chomping force of 650 pounds per square inch.
Others would pick the bear, because if it's not hunting honey in short red pants, it's a mountain of muscle ripping through anything in its way.
But you're different. You're asking the 'what, why, how, and when's. That's because you know the truth is in the prodding.
ARE YOU THE QUESTIONING TYPE? WELCOME TO VML.
Picture Rodin's 'The Thinker'. Now imagine it with a little less muscle and a little more pants. At VML, we're home to the lateral, creative thinkers that tackle cultural problems from all possible angles.
We're a global communication agency that connects brands through creativity, culture and technology. TL;DR? We connect cool people with cool stuff to make cool things happen. We're the industry's cultural shifters, media hijackers and norm disruptors, because the rules of the world haven't been etched into stone for centuries.
Don't believe us? Just ask Pete, our carpenter on speed-dial, for endless shelf extensions to support our ever-growing statue collection, accumulated with some of the best clients across AUNZ (Colgate-Palmolive, ADF Careers, Rip Curl and Monash University, to name a few).
WHO ARE WE LOOKING FOR?
A junior to midweight copywriter to create advertising campaigns amongst the best AUNZ has to offer. You have anywhere between 0 to 4 years of experience. You may have just recently completed AWARD School, or have already had your start in the biz. Either way, you're looking to pair up with a highly talented Art Director, and join one of the best creative departments in the country. Most importantly, you're creative, passionate and ambitious; we're here to help you with the rest.
Among the ranks, you'll get top-notch learning experiences from some of the best creatives in the industry. We're big on helping you thrive, so you'll get plenty of opportunities to fill your book and win awards.
WHAT'S IT LIKE IN THE CREATIVE DEPARTMENT?

WHO WILL YOU BE WORKING WITH?
At VML, we're the embodiment of creativity without bounds, which explains why we're now the amalgamation of 3 creative powerhouses: VMLY&R, VMLY&R Commerce and Wunderman Thompson. Not only do we have a strong Sydney/Melbourne collab' going on, we're always working with our other teams across Australia as well.
Known for our Midas touch, we're a passionate bunch that always aims to make campaigns we're proud of. From strapping fitness trackers on chickens to put the 'free' in 'free range', building a 'Legacy Lager' tap so patrons can buy fallen veterans a beer to say thanks, to using AI to bring childhood selves to life to end the debate as to whether they'd be proud, we've continued our winning streak from the agency's rich heritage.
WHAT HAVE WE ACHIEVED?
We hate patting our own backs, but since you asked... this past year, amongst individual awards, our agency achieved:

And if that's not enough, here are some other work perks:
LION VS. BEAR STILL MULLING AROUND AT THE BACK OF YOUR MIND?
Then you're clearly one of us.
But if you're after what we think... it's the lion who wins, because bears don't come in titanium, gold, or silver. Duh.
Any other questions that didn't get answered? Get in touch! We love those around here.
