Career-curious? Let’s talk.
We work with world-class brands, which is why we hire world-class talent. By that we mean kind, driven, and curious people who love what they do, and do it very well. And who respect everyone they work with, be it colleagues, clients, or competitors.

Our values
Call it like it is
We believe that feedback is the highest form of caring – and we care a lot. We speak our minds whenever there’s a chance to learn and make each other’s work even better. Good intentions allow full honesty: we’re as direct with constructive criticism as we are with positive feedback. Our way of giving feedback is candid but never rude.
Love the craft
We are genuinely passionate about what we do. It shows through things like an extreme eye for detail, vivid debates, and being the biggest critics of our own craft. Creative work can never be perfect, but we still aim for it.
You dare me, I dare you
Daring ideas come from daring teams. We’d rather shock with boldness than please with the ordinary. We dare to challenge our clients and colleagues, and they dare to challenge us. In the end, we may disagree but will always commit to the final decision entirely.
Humour
Laughter brings the best out of our team and clients. When we can laugh and joke around, we feel comfortable sharing our boldest and weirdest ideas. When we can be our true, silly selves at work, we can probably address the hardest things pretty well too. So come as you are, laugh like you do: we take our work seriously, but ourselves, not so much-oh.

The Bou Principles
Independent
brand teams
Our brand teams have both freedom and responsibility to make decisions independently. That's because they are closest to the client, and have the most information about the case at hand. Independent brand teams are simply the best way to organize creative work we have found so far.
No pure strategists or account managers
The way our teams are structured means that we don’t have anyone who only does strategy or account management. Instead, every brand team has a Brand Lead. They make strategic decisions, act as primary points of contact for the client, and participate in daily brand work with their hands-on skills.
Concept is nothing without execution
We don’t think concepting is a separate part of the creative process. Even the best concept is worthless without the best execution. That’s why no one at Bou specializes in the “big picture” or “early phase” only. When we create concepts, we also follow them through and ensure they go live as planned.
