The Company
Red Apple creative is a fast paced advertising and content agency specialising in multi-platform campaigns for radio, Spotify and digital platforms. We are part of the SNK Publishing Group that also includes SNK Studios and Radio Results.
Our audio department is growing rapidly and we're currently looking for an Audio Project Coordinator to join us in our London office. We are a leader in audio creative production in the UK and have a strong roster of clients including Spotify, Arcadia Group and UK Sport. We have long lasting relationships with our clients because they trust us and we always deliver.
We produce commercials, podcasts, videos and immersive audio experiences. Our work can be heard on radio stations, Spotify and other audio platforms around the world and we're proud to be a founder member of the IAB Audio Council.
We've seen significant growth as a company in the last few years and it's an exciting time to join us. We firmly believe that the people in our company are our strongest asset and we're proud to have a brilliant team who amaze us every day. We boast a high staff retention rate and have doubled in size in the last two years.
We have big ambitions so we're looking for an equally driven individual to join us on the journey. We're not looking for back seat drivers because in our company there's nowhere to hide, but if you've got passion and ambition you'll love it and thrive.
Our Culture - Defined By Our Audio Team
We're creative (standard). We're honest and open. A swear jar would bankrupt us all.
We're all equal and we laugh at ourselves...and each other. We're unconventional, productive and we do whatever it takes to get the job done. We like burgers. We always make time for each other and our clients. We live and breathe audio. We're all very different and we love that about our team. We like going to the pub...a lot. We praise each other and recognise achievements. We don't quit, we fix. We're kind and caring. We make a difference. We stick together and pick each other up when it's needed. We're people pleasers. We say please and thank you. We're passionate and motivated. We like to dance. We always leave our clients feeling good.
The Role
The audio project manager is the backbone of our audio creative team and is the glue that holds it all together.
