Wavemaker Australia & New Zealand

Sydney, Australia · 179 people · Est. 2017

At Wavemaker we believe there is always a better way to grow. We know that growth models of the past will not serve the future. Established approaches and traditional thinking are being exploded in every sector, in every market. But exceptional growth requires uncomfortable change – and this change demands courage, from our clients and from our people. That’s why we’ve built Provocative Planning, a way of working powered by our spirit of restless enquiry in pursuit of better outcomes. It rejects traditional linear planning in favour of a modular approach, fusing machine learning and human intelligence in a unique way that gets the best from both. The three growth modules in Provocative Planning – Unlock, Maximize and Transform – provoke growth at different speeds, for today, ongoing, and for tomorrow. Positive Provocation empowers our people every bit as much it does our clients. It inspires us to be well-informed, careful listeners with the confidence and knowledge to ask tough questions. We become more confident, more courageous, more capable. When we positively provoke, we Grow Fearless. We shape consumers’ brand decisions and experiences through media, content and technology. Wavemaker’s Provocative Planning is fuelled by the world’s most powerful consumer decision-making data. This means we know where and how you can win customers. The intelligent insight this provides feeds our world-class precision capabilities in every area of our business, from planning and activation, to our integrated practices such as ecommerce and content – provoking growth for many of the world’s leading brands and businesses. #GrowFearless #PositiveProvocation

UM Australia

Sydney, Australia · 154 people · Est. 1955

From their friends and family to their money to their favorite brands, media is how people connect with the things that matter most to them. We're inspired by this. But in this new era of media, figuring out what works means doing things differently. So that's what we do. We are in a constant state of testing, learning, and trying new things. Universal McCann (UM) is Australia's most awarded media agency. UM Australia has offices in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and Canberra and employs more than 300 people. The agency is among the three largest in Australia, with annual media billings in excess of A$800 million. UM's clients include AMEX, Australian Government, ING, Kmart, Mattel, Energizer, and more. UM have been winning awards for our work and people for many years. Most recently, in 2021 UM won Campaign Asia Agency of the Year.

Cake.Shop is a modular ad stack and strategic partner. We help you take back control through expert support and purpose-built tools that work together. At the core of our stack is sweetshop — an AI-powered ad platform for smarter, more sustainable media buying.
