MRY is a dynamic creative agency that unlocks cultural relevance to create ideas that uniquely captivate and compel. Our approach is rooted in behavior science which gives us a deep understanding of the human experience. Our ideas are designed to be channel-proof, so that they are not bound by media, but come to life with contextual reference.

Part of Publicis Groupe, MRY is headquartered in New York and works with some of the world's leading brands. We offer a full spectrum of services to make sure our big ideas meet all the needs of our clients.
 

Our team members constantly have an ear to the ground to uncover popular memes, cultural trends, social vernacular, and consumer needs both within and outside of our brands’ online communities. They are not only in tune with what’s happening online, but also offline. From mainstream music festivals to secret suppers and hot album releases to sneaker drops, our team members have a pulse on pop culture and in-depth knowledge about what’s hot and what’s not. 
 

We are seeking a Community Manager for this role in particular who is excited by the opportunity to work collaboratively day in and day out with a team of MRY Strategists and Creatives as well as directly with our clients to create and launch content that taps into culture and engages the audience in real time.
