Job Description and Skill Set Required:

- We are an advertising agency (we offer 360-degree, integrated solutions and special focus on digital medium and live entertainment). While we’ve been in the business for more than 18 years, we want to plan for the next 18. And to do so, we need a couple of crystal-ball gazers.
- As a part of two-member team, you’d read, explore, meet people, research, understand, catalogue ideas, predict trends, see patterns, write and most important talk to the entire office (and select clients) about the infinite possibilities that future has to offer.
- In simpler language, you would surf the internet all day long, talk to interesting people, uncover cool things and create content for the entire office to consume. And ensure that they consume it.

What would you do if you are in?

- You would publish a report every week. And present that to internal teams. And clients.
- The goal is to be able to create something that a WPP may want to acquire.
- Work on our clients and think about what all can we for them.
- No, we dont want “traditional” ideas for making a print ad or a film.
- We want to push the envelope to the extent that it frightens us.
- Create ideas that work! For the brand and for the consumers.
- Your work / research / reports get featured on the likes of TED, SingularityU, Trendhunting etc. If you don't know what these are, you may need to rethink the application.- Full-time.
- Work from home possible once in a while. But essentially a full-time role. 8 to 5. Or 10 to 7 on candidates choice.

- Publish a weekly report on the blog
- Market the blog (and reach 10000 organic subscribers in 6 months)
