Senior Manager - Brand & Content, Studio+

About EY Studio+ UK 

Growth comes from solving problems that matter for people, customers, patients, employees, and society at large. At EY Studio+ UK, we are building a better working world, by putting the human first.  Our work is rooted in the way people make decisions, it’s helps us to help businesses make better choices and solve the most pressing problems. We work with organisations to create the platforms, products and services for tomorrow; making the world an easier, more enjoyable and sustainable place to live and work.   

We don’t yet have all the answers, because that’d be boring. We do have some of the best minds in the business and we are comfortable navigating complexity every day. 

We’re privileged to have access to senior critical thinkers in our clients, and we have conversations that excite us and challenge us all the time. We’re becoming an increasingly bigger part of an established global business, which throws up challenges and opportunities every day. Our way of thinking and doing business is infectious, and infecting more and more of the world around us, but that challenges us to go further and scale faster than before. Becoming part of EY Studio+ UK means getting on to enjoy this ride. 

The opportunity 

The work we do is big. Big in scale, big in ambition, big in impact – and big projects get taken seriously. We don’t create outputs for the sake of it. We don’t create work that sits in drawers, never to be revisited. We create work that is driven to implementation.  

The work we do is varied. We work across sectors (from government, healthcare, financial services and fast-moving consumer goods) to tackle a huge variety of problems in a huge variety of ways. One week you could be interviewing customers in their homes to understand how they make sense of their money, the next month you could be leading a workshop in Whitehall to articulate how a government department can embed innovation in their organisation.   

We take our practitioners seriously and you will be given the freedom and support to develop your craft, your thinking, your work and your career in a way that suits you and delivers for the practice and your clients.
