We are passionate about our people and see them as our most important asset. We employ the best talent who are fully committed to their clients and their role and have the balance of skills and experience required. And in return for their valuable contribution we look after them well.

Diversity of Skills Across the Business

Over the last several years, we have worked hard to diversify our talent to achieve a powerful balance of traditional OOH media skills and those of newer and emerging areas.

This blend of talent is seen right across our business and is also very evident in our management team which provides a wealth of OOH rigour and professionalism along with extensive experience of digital, programmatic, data, technology and content.

Diversity and Inclusion

Diversity and inclusion is a key and ongoing focus for us at Posterscope.

We champion diverse and inclusive thinking that generates better outcomes for our people, partners and communities in the connected economy. We believe that with a focus on creative thinking, diversity of perspectives, thinking approaches and backgrounds our clients’ businesses will thrive.

We recognise and celebrate everyone as individuals, and foster a culture that does the same.

Talent Development

A core driver of success across the Posterscope business is its consistent investment in top tier talent but extensive training is also crucial to achieving an energised and innovative culture. In the UK for example, over 60% of our staff have achieved at least one Institute of Practitioners in Advertising (IPA) qualification, we have been an IPA CPD Gold winner for 9 years and have held IPA Platinum status for the last 6 years (one of only 21 of the 300 IPA agency members that have this level of accreditation for outstanding approach to Continuous Professional Development).

Best practice in Talent Development is shared across the Posterscope global network.

We strongly believe in supporting our local communities, those in need, and environmental projects through staff volunteering and working closely with our charity partners.

Some notable projects include Posterscope UK’s partnership with Breakthrough, Media Trust and the local soup kitchen, Posterscope Netherland’s Sheltersuit initiative, PSI’s fundraising efforts for Smart Works on Women’s International Day, Posterscope Brasil’s billboard creation to fight against the Zika virus, and the entire Posterscope network’s involvement in Project Everyone – delivering a global digital OOH campaign to share the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals.
