Company Description
For decades, Saatchi & Saatchi Wellness has provided consumer and professional marketing, strategic consulting, and medical education to pharmaceutical and wellness brands. Our mission is to inspire a healthier, happier, well-er world through award-winning work.
If you google us (which you may have done already), you'll see that spreading wellness is literally our mission. We don't just talk about making your well-being the most important thing, we mean it. Having a flexible hybrid-work policy, plentiful time off, and colleagues who want you to do well are all part of the gig. Oh, and of course the opportunity to work on some of the good-vibiest campaigns on the planet with very caring, very resourceful people. So, if you're a rockstar writer, aspiring strategist, jill-or jack-of all trades, or just an all-around nice person, let's chat.

Your ultimate goal is to place the right talent on the right assignment at the right time, requiring a deep understanding of talent and resource needs across the agency.
