CAREERS
We're always on the look out for talented individuals to join our unique team. We offer the opportunity to expand your career horizons - working on cutting edge, integrated strategy, leadership, organisational development, innovation and engagement programmes for some of the world's biggest brands.
As a Gold Investor in People, we're also in the top 1% of companies in the UK in terms of our own development offer. We've been Surrey 'Employer of the Year' and 'Employer of the Year' finalists at the National Business Awards, so live and breathe the approach we advocate to our clients.
We look for individuals who have that rare combination of the 'what' and 'how'. The 'what' is being outstanding in your field of expertise. The 'how' is having an approach and attitude that makes people love working with you. In our business they hold equal importance.
The roles we most regularly recruit into are:
Commercial Leaders: These are individuals who create value for our business by having a fusion of high-end consultancy skills. Clients come to us, and stay with us, due to our end-to-end approach. This requires commercial leads to not only design client solutions, but to sell them in, manage client relationships to the highest standards, and to deliver their own programmes working with the wider team.
Consultants and Senior Consultants: Individuals who are first and foremost business consultants, but with one or more areas of specialist expertise. An example of this could be an organisational development specialist with previous consultancy experience. These individuals are able to take a business brief and design and deliver world-class solutions in their field of expertise. All of our consultants are able to facilitate at a senior level, as well as design broad solutions that may flex across different business disciplines.
Programme Managers: Individuals who are expert in managing complex projects on time and on budget, often on an international basis. Our programme managers live and breathe client service. They combine this with a deep understanding of our areas of expertise, with an approach that values making new ideas possible. They work in partnership with our consultancy team.
Business support: Individuals that support the consultancy team. These include our in-house graphic design, video and web studios, finance manager and professional operations and administration team.
So, if you think a career at DPA may be right for you, please look out for our vacancies. Role details and application packs will be provided on this page, and advertised via our LinkedIn Company Page, local press and recruitment agencies.
Associate Working
Whilst we work with a number of expert Associates on client programmes, the majority of our work with clients is designed and delivered by consultants in our core DPA team, due to their depth of understanding of the client's business.
Occasionally we require additional support for high volume projects or to bring in specific expertise. This approach enables us to deliver a consistently high quality of service.
At least twice a year we do refresh our Associate pool. If you'd like to be considered, please send through details of your consultancy expertise to: careers@dpacoms.com.
We will keep this on file until an appropriate client brief or opportunity to work together arises. In the interests of everyone's time we only meet new Associates on the basis of potential client work, rather than for speculative introductory meetings.
