Who We Are:

At VML, we are a beacon of innovation and growth in an ever-evolving world. Our heritage is built upon a century of combined expertise, where creativity meets technology, and diverse perspectives ignite inspiration. With the merger of VMLY&R and Wunderman Thompson, we have forged a new path as a growth partner that is part creative agency, part consultancy, and part technology powerhouse. 

Our global family now encompasses over 30,000 employees across 150+ offices in 64 markets, each contributing to a culture that values connection, belonging, and the power of differences.  Our expertise spans the entire customer journey, offering deep insights in communications, commerce, consultancy, CRM, CX, data, production, and technology. We deliver end-to-end solutions that result in revolutionary work. 

We are VML Enterprise Solutions - a group of talented engineers, tech experts, and creators who combine our passions and contribute to the IT world.

  • Communicate effectively with technical and non-technical colleagues, including clients.
  • Own projects end-to-end, including maintenance and scaling.
  • Maintain code quality, accessibility, performance, and testing standards.
  • Stay current with evolving front-end technologies.

  • Excellent communication skills and ability to collaborate with teams and stakeholders.
  • Strong problem-solving skills and a proactive, self-motivated work ethic.
