Job Summary

Real Chemistry is looking for a Managing Director to join our growing team! The Managing Director will be a senior leader tasked to drive the agency strategy, positioning, and offerings for our clients. They will support a distinctive employee experience for our multi-disciplinary and multi-cultural team.

The majority of clients come from the healthcare sector with aspirations to expand into non-healthcare markets over time while continuing growth in healthcare. The current scopes are diverse and include multiple fields: PR, CTR, digital and social marketing, internal communications, branding, analytics and tech dev. Our clients know us as an integrated consultancy to whom they can trust – regardless of project scope or scale.

Our Managing Directors are agile, responsive, and have strong conceptual thinking capabilities.
