Job Description

CHARLIE OSCAR

Charlie Oscar is a digital growth company built to accelerate brand growth, underpinned by marketing science.

We combine data, technology and creativity to create different and better new wave media strategy and execution across Media, Influencer and Content.

Our proprietary marketing science suite, COmpass, gives clients insight into what marketing investment drives growth. Using this, our team of experts provide the best strategy and execution across digital disciplines spanning paid media, influencer CRM & CRO.

We're an innovative, independently owned company. We're not "growth hackers" or a performance agency that follows industry best practices. Rather, we're a group of founders and seasoned operators who are building innovative tools and services that set a new standard for digital marketing.

At Charlie Oscar, we like to select team members based on attitude and culture add. While we value experience and expertise, we want to work with people who are eager to challenge the status quo and driven to consistently deliver best-in-class output.

We believe in work-life balance and prioritise team well-being. We work hard but also make time to bond as a team, have some fun and socialise. We do quarterly social events and an annual company trip away to recharge and spend quality time together. The team works together in our London Bridge office and from home.
