**A LITTLE BIT ABOUT US**:
OLIVER provides clients with dedicated agencies. We do this because we believe the traditional agency model is not fit for the speed of modern marketing. Businesses want, and rightly demand, the same quality of strategic and creative thinking the traditional agency provides, but at a speed that befits how they now work.

The traditional agency outside-in model means that huge quantities of time are wasted in the back and forth and linear processes between agencies and clients. OLIVER agencies come to the client, live inside their office and solve their problems collaboratively.

OLIVER agencies are strategic and creative, whilst being agile and adaptive. They cover the full range of integrated marketing, but at the speed that businesses now demand. We allow our clients to work in real time. Creating better work, at pace.

**OUR VALUES AND HOW TO LIVE THEM**:
**Ambition** - you look for opportunities to deliver greater value to those around you.

**Imagination** - you identify a range of solutions to problems.

**Inclusion - **to be actively pro-inclusive and anti-racist across our community, clients and creations.

**Inspiration** - you lead by example and encourage others to do the same.

**Learning **- you have excellent listening skills that helps you to learn from our clients and those around you.

**Results** - you accept responsibility for your actions.
- We've set ambitious, market-leading environmental and social goals around sustainability at OLIVER. _We have committed to be net zero by 2030 and take far reaching action on DE&I in the sector. _We expect everyone to contribute to our mission, embedding sustainability into every department and
