&lt;p&gt;Independent of mind, spirit and action, we remain free to find the right answers to our clients’ strategic and creative challenges.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We build strategies, develop ideas and deliver at scale, creating experiences that change the status quo for some of the world’s most exciting brands - across our core offers of Consulting, Destinations, Content and Live.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;To get to groundbreaking ideas, we start with unexpected combinations. Research shows that the greatest accelerator of creativity is the diversity of talent in the team, and we actively recruit for unique individuals who embody our core beliefs and demonstrate the behaviors that underpin Independent Creativity.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Our Core Beliefs&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We have identified four foundational beliefs that underpin Independent Creativity. More powerful than generic corporate values, they motivate us to act, to foster the behaviors that lead to success:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;We believe &lt;strong&gt;curiosity&lt;/strong&gt; is the root of original insights and ideas... so we look at the world with fresh eyes, we experiment, invent and up-end conventions.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;We believe &lt;strong&gt;rigor&lt;/strong&gt; results in better choices... so we ask precise, provocative questions.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;We believe &lt;strong&gt;bravery&lt;/strong&gt; tames the unknown... so we demand ambition, confident that together we can meet ‘never been done before challenges’.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;We believe &lt;strong&gt;respect&lt;/strong&gt; builds stronger teams and continued success... so we recognize the uniqueness and unique potential in each individual, we are accountable to each other, we play as a team.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Imagination is an equal opportunity employer, committed to a culturally diverse workforce. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, religion, color, age, sex, national origin, sexual orientation, gender identity, disability or protected veteran status.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;DIVERSITY, EQUITY &amp;amp; INCLUSION STATEMENT &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Imagination believes that diversity, equity and inclusion are more than just words, and more than a legal framework or a moral obligation - they are guiding principles that, when acted upon, make us stronger, more innovative and more creative as an organization.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We commit to not only significantly increasing our efforts to effect change today, but also to ensure that our efforts will be sustained for the long-term. To support us on this journey we have appointed a Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Board to help shape our plans to bring about positive change, to help us learn and keep us all moving forward together.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We believe the responsibility for a diverse, equitable and inclusive workplace ultimately rests with all of us.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We believe that all employees should feel a sense of belonging at Imagination - regardless of their race, religion or belief, gender identity, age, sexual orientation, disability or background.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We believe racism has no place within our workplace or our work culture and we reject all forms of hatred, prejudice, intolerance and discrimination.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We believe that Black Lives Matter and it is our expectation that all employees become actively committed to making unbiased choices and are anti-racist in everything they do.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Our Imagination community must share and live these beliefs, as diversity makes us stronger.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Our priority is humanity and our efforts toward a more diverse, more equitable and more inclusive workplace are never done.&lt;/p&gt;

Investor Communications Account Director

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Responsibilities&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Analyze company objectives and recommend story arcs that will help the company achieve its goals&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Work with diverse teams, including clients, banks, lawyers, video directors, editors and other creatives, to define assets (videos, presentations, web content) that need to be created&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Write and present concepts and scripts with conviction and clarity, instilling confidence in your audiences (includes long and short form content ranging from 5-35 minutes in length)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Nurture assets through development and creation, reacting to input and changed circumstances.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Write presentation and film scripts integrating financial data, marketing messaging and executive and consumer voices, instilling confidence in your client and financial community audiences&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Manage the drafting process integrating feedback from all constituents (creative team, client, bankers, counsel).&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Skills/Qualifications&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Genuine interest in how companies explain their value to various stakeholders and partners and come to market&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Ability to zoom – understand the big picture, know the details, and be able to transition effortlessly between the two&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Resilience – the work we do is mission-critical for our clients (it’s literally their life’s work), and they and their advisors will have robust views about your work. You need to be able to absorb what’s correct, charmingly deflect what’s incorrect, and revise the work fast&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Credibility – you’ll be interacting with business leaders who have earned their stripes. You will speak their language and be able to interpret it for sophisticated audiences. And you’ll have absorbed the latest news, worked out what it means for the company, and be ready to offer a well-thought through POV on how the planned communication needs to change.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Adaptability – we work with a very diverse set of brands and executives within those brands. You will need to be able to write from the vantage of various tones of voices and capture the uniqueness of each individual and brand.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Creative storytelling – you will know how to tell a brand story, while also understanding the financial side of the business and being able to interpret that in a creative and engaging way for the investor audience&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This work can currently be completed from various locations within the US. When we’re able to return to our office (in New York), we’d expect you to join the team there on an agreed schedule, so we can all benefit from easy and continuous interaction.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If this sounds like you, and you’re ready to show us the great work you’ve done, we look forward to meeting you.&amp;nbsp; Our projects generally run 6-12 weeks.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Imagination is an experience design company founded on the principle of Independent Creativity.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Independent of mind, spirit and action, we remain free to find the right answers to our clients’ strategic and creative challenges.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We build strategies, develop ideas and deliver at scale, creating experiences that change the status quo for some of the world’s most exciting brands - across our core offers of Consulting, Destinations, Content and Live.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;To get to groundbreaking ideas, we start with unexpected combinations. Research shows that the greatest accelerator of creativity is the diversity of talent in the team, and we actively recruit for unique individuals who embody our core beliefs and demonstrate the behaviors that underpin Independent Creativity.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Our Core Beliefs&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We have identified four foundational beliefs that underpin Independent Creativity. More powerful than generic corporate values, they motivate us to act, to foster the behaviors that lead to success:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;We believe &lt;strong&gt;curiosity&lt;/strong&gt; is the root of original insights and ideas... so we look at the world with fresh eyes, we experiment, invent and up-end conventions&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;We believe &lt;strong&gt;rigor&lt;/strong&gt; results in better choices... so we ask precise, provocative questions.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;We believe &lt;strong&gt;bravery&lt;/strong&gt; tames the unknown... so we demand ambition, confident that together we can meet ‘never been done before challenges’.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;We believe &lt;strong&gt;respect&lt;/strong&gt; builds stronger teams and continued success... so we recognize the uniqueness and unique potential in each individual, we are accountable to each other, we play as a team.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Imagination is an equal opportunity employer, committed to a culturally diverse workforce. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, religion, color, age, sex, national origin, sexual orientation, gender identity, disability or protected veteran status.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;DIVERSITY, EQUITY &amp;amp; INCLUSION STATEMENT &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Imagination believes that diversity, equity and inclusion are more than just words, and more than a legal framework or a moral obligation - they are guiding principles that, when acted upon, make us stronger, more innovative and more creative as an organisation.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We commit to not only significantly increasing our efforts to effect change today, but also to ensure that our efforts will be sustained for the long-term. To support us on this journey we have appointed a Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Board to help shape our plans to bring about positive change, to help us learn and keep us all moving forward together.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We believe the responsibility for a diverse, equitable and inclusive workplace ultimately rests with all of us.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We believe that all employees should feel a sense of belonging at Imagination - regardless of their race, religion or belief, gender identity, age, sexual orientation, disability or background.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We believe racism has no place within our workplace or our work culture and we reject all forms of hatred, prejudice, intolerance and discrimination.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We believe that Black Lives Matter and it is our expectation that all employees become actively committed to making unbiased choices and are anti-racist in everything they do.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Our Imagination community must share and live these beliefs, as diversity makes us stronger.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Our priority is humanity and our efforts toward a more diverse, more equitable and more inclusive workplace are never done.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;li&gt;Assertive and confident in negotiating contracts with vendors and venues, and releases with talent and locations&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Initiative and enthusiasm, with an ability to ‘think on your feet’&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Flexibility and adaptability&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Not averse to short notice travel at times for shoots and events&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Be prepared to work demanding hours in the office and at times on the road&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;PowerPoint and Excel competency is essential&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Strong numeracy skills, well-practiced in complex budgeting and reconciliation&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Candidate will be communicating with banking clients on a regular basis and should be interested in the financial sector with at least a basic understanding of capital markets.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;An attraction to financial and business news is a plus and keeping up-to-date with the industry will be expected in this role.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Complex event management experience.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;li&gt;Keen attention to detail&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Clear understanding of working with confidential information and management&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Flexibility&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Resourcefulness&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Engrained, strong problem-solving skills – solutions-oriented by nature&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;A love of persuasive communication&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;A passion for culinary experiences&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Naturally curious about people and cultures&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Our clients are household brand names who commission us to design and build experiences that truly differentiate them in the marketplace.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;You are both visionary (aware of the latest thinking in UX best practice) and practical (able to build quick, working prototypes that our very visual clients will be entranced by). One without the other is no good – Imagination team members in every discipline blend both roles, and this is no exception.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Our Team&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;You will be part of the compact Technology Team within Imagination New York, working alongside three Full Stack Developers, a project management lead, and reporting into our Head of Technology. Every day, you’ll coordinate with account managers, specialist creatives, and production managers (responsible for building physical environments).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;You’re also likely to work with extended Imagination teams in other parts of the USA and worldwide, as well as networks of subcontractors.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Translating findings into user flows, customer journey maps, wireframes, mockups, and prototypes&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Designing elegant and effective user interfaces for mobile, web and experiential activations&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Safeguarding the user experience as the integrated project is subjected to scope and budget changes and modifying it as necessary.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Capable of producing a range of innovative solutions to any brief, rather than defaulting to a single, standard-practice solution.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Residency Requirements&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Candidates who are not US citizens or US permanent residents need to have authorization to work in the US in order to apply.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Imagination is an experience design company founded on the principle of Independent Creativity.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Independent of mind, spirit and action, we remain free to find the right answers to our clients’ strategic and creative challenges.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We build strategies, develop ideas and deliver at scale, creating experiences that change the status quo for some of the world’s most exciting brands - across our core offers of Consulting, Destinations, Content and Live.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;To get to groundbreaking ideas, we start with unexpected combinations. Research shows that the greatest accelerator of creativity is the diversity of talent in the team, and we actively recruit for unique individuals who embody our core beliefs and demonstrate the behaviors that underpin Independent Creativity.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Our Core Beliefs&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We have identified four foundational beliefs that underpin Independent Creativity. More powerful than generic corporate values, they motivate us to act, to foster the behaviors that lead to success:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;We believe &lt;strong&gt;curiosity&lt;/strong&gt; is the root of original insights and ideas... so we look at the world with fresh eyes, we experiment, invent and up-end conventions.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;We believe &lt;strong&gt;rigor&lt;/strong&gt; results in better choices... so we ask precise, provocative questions.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;We believe &lt;strong&gt;bravery&lt;/strong&gt; tames the unknown... so we demand ambition, confident that together we can meet ‘never been done before challenges’.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;We believe &lt;strong&gt;respect&lt;/strong&gt; builds stronger teams and continued success... so we recognize the uniqueness and unique potential in each individual, we are accountable to each other, we play as a team.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Imagination is an equal opportunity employer, committed to a culturally diverse workforce. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, religion, color, age, sex, national origin, sexual orientation, gender identity, disability or protected veteran status.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;DIVERSITY, EQUITY &amp;amp; INCLUSION STATEMENT &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Imagination believes that diversity, equity and inclusion are more than just words, and more than a legal framework or a moral obligation - they are guiding principles that, when acted upon, make us stronger, more innovative and more creative as an organization.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We commit to not only significantly increasing our efforts to effect change today, but also to ensure that our efforts will be sustained for the long-term. To support us on this journey we have appointed a Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Board to help shape our plans to bring about positive change, to help us learn and keep us all moving forward together.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We believe the responsibility for a diverse, equitable and inclusive workplace ultimately rests with all of us.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We believe that all employees should feel a sense of belonging at Imagination - regardless of their race, religion or belief, gender identity, age, sexual orientation, disability or background.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We believe racism has no place within our workplace or our work culture and we reject all forms of hatred, prejudice, intolerance and discrimination.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We believe that Black Lives Matter and it is our expectation that all employees become actively committed to making unbiased choices and are anti-racist in everything they do.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Our Imagination community must share and live these beliefs, as diversity makes us stronger.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Our priority is humanity and our efforts toward a more diverse, more equitable and more inclusive workplace are never done.&lt;/p&gt;
