Working at Wavemaker
Wavemaker is our name, our mission and our method. We believe there is always a better way to grow. Our attitude, Positive Provocation , is defined by the idea that what got you here, won't get you there. Today that seems more appropriate than ever. We don't provoke for the sake of it, we provoke to create innovative and better outcomes for our clients. This attitude is behind our growth, helping us attract and retain some of the most iconic brands across ANZ.
Being a provocateur means
Being experts in the known, but curious about the unknown
Inspired to do anything, but deliberate in our choices
Delivering on-time in-full, but knowing it's always in beta
Making media, not just buying it
Bringing 100% of ourselves, 100% of the time
Inclusive policies
We believe that diversity is vital and positively influences the environment in which we operate. We are committed to fostering a diverse and inclusive work environment that is free of discrimination, harassment or bullying. Race, colour, ancestry, religion, gender, gender identity, national origin, sexual orientation, age, marital status, disability or veteran status have no bearing on our hiring decisions, we encourage all applicants.
