Job Description

As one of Europeʼs most awarded healthcare agencies, McCann Health London launched the IGNITE programme in 2020 to kick-start creative careers. The 15-week internship pays the London Living Wage, providing a way into the industry regardless of background or experience.

You will be completely immersed in the creative process at a leading agency. You'll work on live client briefs, get involved in pitches and collaborate with international teams, all under the mentorship of award-winning creatives.

So whoever you are, wherever you come from, if youʼre passionate about creativity and its power to improve peopleʼs lives, you can IGNITE your career with us.

We’re**looking for all sorts, so show us your sort of creativity.**

You’ll see a button to upload a portfolio, but we’re open to anything! Upload anything you’re proud of; a painting, a poem, a video, even a cake you’ve made. Whatever shows how your brain works, who you are, and how you see the world.

We want to see YOUR thinking. So, surprise us. Let us into your process.

At IGNITE, we know great ideas don’t come in one format. That’s why, when you answer our questions below, you can respond in any way. We want to see it all. The rough stuff. The fun stuff. The unexpected stuff.

For your application to be considered, please answer the following questions

Questions:

• If there was a news article written about you, what would the headline be?
• Create a new type of clock that doesn’t use numbers or hands, how does it tell the time?
• If you had to explain social media to a medieval knight, what would you say?
