Ogilvy was founded in 1948 by David Ogilvy. David created a culture that deeply respects and cares about its people and clients. Our mission is to inspire people and brands to make an impact and we are committed to attracting, growing, and retaining the best talent in the industry.
About the Role
Ogilvyseeksa highly driven, passionate Vice President with a strong background in capacity and capability building and community engagement with Tribal nations. This role will support tribal and non-tribal resilience and climate change efforts in disadvantaged communities on behalf of FEMA, with whom Ogilvy has a long-standing client relationship. Our current work centers around the Community Engagement and Risk Communication (CERC) contract, which focuses on growing awareness of, and resilience towards natural disasters in American communities and, specifically here, equitable distribution of federal grants. As the country and Tribal nations continue to come to terms with the long-term effects of climate change, this work is increasingly important.
This is an exciting opportunity to work with a federal agency and a large, integrated team encompassing a network of behavior change, disaster resilience, risk communications, emergency management, community outreach, partnership building, community planning, and engineering experts to engage a broad array of national and local decision makers and influencers. The team's work is centered around issues of natural disaster mitigation, climate change adaptation, and capacity building to empower communities to drive resilience. This unique program functions on national, regional, and community levels, and is extremely dynamic with many moving parts.
Vice President Overview
Vice Presidents bring value to our clients by analyzing, solving and presenting viable integrated solutions to client problems. They identify and inspire new work streams and creative solutions, act as conduit between FEMA and communities or Tribal nations and provide counsel and support to more junior staff. They are part of a tight knit, collaborative team of senior team members who solution together to advance programmatic goals while being capable and ready to support the team and client deliverables.
