ELEVEN - BUSINESS DIRECTOR

Our purpose

We believe cultural impact can move a business, a service or an industry forward. It can influence government policies. It can shift outdated notions, stereotypes, and behaviours. It can even move the position of a marginalised group in society forward. We believe there's always a way to turn it up.

At Eleven, we're motivated by helping brands identify and live their place in culture, through the products and services offered and the communications they serve. We lean on culture heavily for inspiration and look for ways to intersect brands with new and emerging cultural narratives.

We nurture and value a restless curiosity, and we never, ever stand still.
