Who We Are:
A laugh. A tear. A heart skipping a beat. A human reaction to something completely unexpected.
This is what drives us. It’s also the inspiration for our name btw (an elevated blood pressure, since you ask).
160over90 is a cultural marketing agency like no other. We’re part of a global powerhouse that represents talent, IP and brands ––and as a growing Strategy team within, we take the mantle of navigating the cultural currents of what people care about most today and tomorrow; attaching a brand to the right and relevant cultural insights…and guiding the way ideas come to life across every/any part the marketing spectrum.

Who You Are:
First and foremost, you’re serially curious; about brands, about people and the world around us. How all of it is changing and evolving. You’re plugged into culture; Interested and inspired by the now and next with a love and deep understanding of brands and how to sculpt them. Simply put, you love to ask (and understand) why.
You appreciate the value of others, nurturing those who work for you, inspiring those who work with you. Powering the collective that gets us to bigger and better; that gets us to wow. When in doubt, you do, valuing courage over comfort. And you always give a damn. About the client, the agency, the people and the work.
Success in this role requires the intellectual curiosity to dive deep and stay at the forefront of cultural and category dynamics, the emotional intelligence to question and understand consumer behaviour and the collaborative spirit to work closely with internal creative, account, and project management teams. It also requires a degree of experience, product excellence and management skills allied to a certain confidence, gravitas and way with words (written and spoken) that means clients and colleagues alike, listen.
