DJE Holdings is hiring : Senior Producer in Chicago

Overview Edelman is a voice synonymous with trust, reimagining a future where the currency of communication is action. Our culture thrives on three promises : boldness is possibility, empathy is progress, and curiosity is momentum.

We are in relentless pursuit of an equitable and inspiring workplace that is respectful of all, reflects and represents the world in which we live, and fosters trust, collaboration, and belonging. Consistent with this approach, we hire the best qualified candidates for all positions.

Edelman is looking for a Senior Producer to help us make things that culture will love. Our growing creative teams are the masterminds behind some of the world’s most talked about work. Whether we\'re teaming up with RZA to replace an outdated and racist ice cream jingle, fighting for intersectional environmental justice with TAZO Tea, or creating a hotel for the world\'s most devoted Taco Bell fans, the work we create is designed to capture attention and get people talking. It’s not enough to be culturally relevant—our briefs demand that we change culture around us. Now we need a strong Senior Producer who can help unlock more of those weird, wild ideas.

To land this gig, you need to have a passion for people and helping others solve problems. Our culture is what sets us apart from traditional ad agencies, and it’s why so many stay with us awhile. At Edelman, our most valuable resource is you – our people – with a diversity of backgrounds, ideas, and smarts (with heart). We support one another, encourage each other, and we’re looking for individuals who want to contribute to our culture.
