We Are Collider
We Are Collider is a boutique brand experience agency that takes a behavioural science approach to build experience-led campaigns for brands.
Based in the UK, the agency delivers work globally. It works across the live, digital, and virtual space – from grand live events to intimate digital activations.
Entertainment, gaming, and Esports feature heavily in its work – with the likes of Riot Games and Red Bull on its client list. A recent win for Waitrose has seen an increase in different sectors alongside some major global LNG clients.
Last year We Are Collider was shortlisted for 16 awards and won eight.

Inside the Company
Since 2017 the agency has grown organically and has almost 20 people based in the vibrant area of Bermondsey Street, southeast London.
Staff works across creative, client services, and production departments three days a week at the office and two days a week from home.
One staff member is based in Cardiff and comes to the office a couple of times a month.
As you can see, flexible working is not an issue.

Culture and Benefits
The company ensures it works hard and plays hard.
Each week we have ‘thirsty Thursday’ a chance to enjoy a beverage informally where people can share interesting work or content.
Every month the whole company goes out for a social. This has included trips to immersive experiences: Stranger Things, Guardians of the Galaxy, and Shuffleboard.
There are pop-up ‘lunch and learns’, and pizza lunches. During summer and Christmas, we go big.
We also get glammed up throughout the year when attending awards and dinners.
Rocky the dog is a welcome addition, but there’s always room for more.
From a company benefits perspective, all employees have 25 days of holiday, (charity day, as well as access to YuLife app which gives financial, emotional, and physical Support).
Entry-Level Opportunities
Everyone at We Are Collider is a strong advocate of recruiting from junior levels. Two of our last five appointments have been at a junior level – a junior designer and a junior account handler.
We don’t see age as a barrier at either end, taking young and old on individual merits. We embrace talent from all ethnic and socio-economic backgrounds.
We have had a full-time placement with a student from Nottingham University who is undertaking a one-year internship with us. Each year we also accept students from the Charter School Dulwich, aged 15 and 17 to experience what working life is like in an agency.
