About Us

What makes PHD a leading agency and a great place to work is a focus on our people. We are both proud and lucky to have some of the nicest, cleverest, most passionate and funnest people in the industry in our agency. Alongside our people, we have an amazing collection of brilliant clients that we really enjoy doing great work with.

We aren't a typical media agency. We believe in creativity as much as creative agencies. We don't just book ad space we merge great thinking, planning and buying with the latest technologies, data, and knowledge of human decision-making to deliver effective solutions for our clients each and every brief. We don't like to gloat but it's nice to have won a lot of awards over the last few years including a few Agency of the Year awards.

We are a part of the Global Marketing Company Omnicom Media Group (OMG) and encompass three integrated communications agencies covering media, digital, PR, social media, content and activation.

Specifically, this will include setting up campaigns across multiple activation platforms (programmatic, search & paid social), collecting data and processing data for reports and making recommendations based on insights with the support of the Activation Executive & Manager. Your deliverables are always of the highest quality and are completed in a timely and efficient manner

Skills and Experience
- Ideally, you would have experience working as an Intern in a digital agency, publisher, trading desk, technology company, or other, but this is not essential.
- Basic knowledge of digital platforms (Google, YouTube, Meta, TikTok, LinkedIn, Pinterest etc.) would be to your advantage, but not mandatory.
- A high level of organisation and excellent attention to detail.
