Who We Are?

At VML, we are a beacon of innovation and growth in an ever-evolving world.

Our heritage is built upon a century of combined expertise, where creativity meets technology, and diverse perspectives ignite inspiration.

With the merger of VMLY&R and Wunderman Thompson, we have forged a new path as a growth partner that is part creative agency, part consultancy, and part technology powerhouse.

Our global family now encompasses over 30,000 employees across 150+ offices in 64 markets, each contributing to a culture that values connection, belonging, and the power of differences.

Our expertise spans the entire customer journey, offering deep insights in communications, commerce, consultancy, CRM, CX, data, production, and technology.

We deliver end-to-end solutions that result in revolutionary work.

Roles And Responsibilities :

  • Role is to set one operating standard across markets, connect CRM with media and platform, and drive a simple rhythm : ship, learn, scale.
  • Analytics is oversight only; the focus is Salesforce, operations, and outcomes.

  • Convert winning tests into standards : document, train, templatize, roll out; retire legacy approaches.
  • Analytics and digital platform oversight (light) :

  • Ensure essential reporting exists (journey health, deliverability, site-to-lead, lead-to-booking, CAC).
  • Partner with data analytics for deeper work; use insights to drive action without building pipelines yourself.
  • Governance and cadence :
