Description
Who is mSix&Partners

mSix&Partners is one of the
fastest growing media network
in the world.

We have marked the chapters of our expansion with new client relationships:

TalkTalk helped us open our doors in the UK, Toyota enabled us to grow into EMEA and EA has strengthened our presence and offering in APAC and North America.

Today over 50 offices and spanning 5 continents and this role of UK & EMEA Head of Technology is key to our continued growth and success

We take our clients and people Further Faster.

As a joint venture between independent agency network The&Partnership and GroupM, backed by WPP, we offer our clients the best of both worlds.

Because of this unique structure, we create new operating models that integrate agency functions and often embed our people into our clients' marketing teams.

Our ability to come together with our clients, regardless of whether co-located or working remotely, has proven critical to our success.

The way we behave - Honest, Energetic and Pioneering:

**Honest**:we build trusted relationships through openness, focus & clarity

-
Energetic: we meet people with warmth & positivity. We say 'yes, and not 'yes, but.'
-
Pioneering: we drive forwards, looking for new technology, new ideas & new sources of growth. We are driven to look for the next innovation, to meet our clients' challenges

We are known for delivering great award-winning work for our clients.

We have continued to win industry accolades throughout the last year whilst also celebrating our people's achievements who have also seen individual industry recognition.

We have been awarded the
IPA CPD Gold accreditation in the UK
for continuous professional development of our people for 3 years in a row, and in 2022 we won the
IPA CPD Platinum accreditation alongside a small group of agencies.

We have won Campaign's Best Places to Work 2022, which recognises mSix as one the best employers in our industry, showing our commitment to our culture of learning and our focus on the professional development of all mSixers, in order to become **the most important place in their careers.
In 2022,
we also won
Digiday's** Best Workplace in Young People's Careers.**
Our Diversity, Equity
and Inclusion commitment:

We are committed to being a diverse, equitable and inclusive agency with the aim to build and retain teams that represent the communities we operate in. Our Global employee
run DEI group,
The Collective, are pioneers in delivering and maintaining accountability of these commitments.

We were the first media agency in the UK to partner with Ambitious about Autism and launch an internship programme designed to actively champion neurodiversity and unlock the potential of young autistic adults.

Now in its fourth year, our commitment continues, expanding our already successful internship programme and calling the industry to open their doors and minds to young autistic talent.
