ABOUT US
Team Cyclone is an IPG team dedicated to Dyson. A beacon of innovation, it is a unique part of IPG Mediabrands, run out of UM but incorporating people from all parts of the network.
Dyson is not an ordinary brand. Which is why we’re looking for extraordinary people to join us. We promise an exciting journey of learning, discovery and breaking down barriers.
You can read more about our promise to Dyson on the next page, but our vision for Team Cyclone is one of a unified team working collaboratively across agency brands, borders and departments to create outstanding work.
You will get the opportunity to work with, and learn from, some of our smartest people as we pave the way ahead for Dyson’s marketing and advertising efforts across the globe.
Above all, we are looking for people who are proactive in building bridges, whether that be through team events, collaborative brainstorms or simply picking up tasks that seem to have fallen between a few chairs. People who use their curiosity and questions to open unexpected doors and solve problems.
We aspire to have ‘one global voice’, which leaves little room for ego on the team. We focus on doing what is right – not being right. Listening more than talking. It means we are open and honest with each other and that we hold each other accountable to ensure execution is on point and always joined up.
You will need to be comfortable balancing shifting priorities, delivery pressures and the challenges that come from being part of a matrix organization, but for the right candidate the awards and opportunities for personal career growth are high.
