Job Specification

Hello, we're Eleven. We're an independent creative agency with a strong moral compass and a proven track record of success.

Our mission is to create a brighter, fairer world. We do this by creating campaigns and content that help not-for-profit organisations drive positive change. 

For example, when the Greater Manchester Combined Authority needed to recruit more foster carers across Greater Manchester, they came to Eleven. And when Samaritans wanted to reduce suicides on the railway, they too came to Eleven.

We specialise in working in the following sectors: charity, education, fostering, health and social care and public sector.

We use our deep knowledge of these sectors to get to the heart of issues quickly, combining this with fresh perspectives from other industries to connect with audiences in meaningful ways – raising awareness, changing behaviours and inspiring action.

Our culture is important to us and it is essential that all colleagues reflect our values:

  • We're curious about the world around us;
  • We’re committed to making the world a better place; and
  • We're collaborative problem solvers that support each other to be our best.
