At ICAN we spend a lot of time getting a bit stressed out at our computers. We thought it would be nice to go back in time, abandon technology and put paint to paper and get our hands dirty. So six of us headed to South Dublin Studios, stopping crucially in Fallon’s for a quick pick-me-up. Read more
Yes, it’s official, we’re looking for a new Copywriter!
After many years, we say goodbye to our long serving Senior Copywriter Lizzie Kinross, who is off to foreign shores and new adventures. ICAN will miss her! But it does mean we now have an opportunity for a new writer to join us. So here’s the spec:
This is a great opportunity for an experienced copywriter to join a creative digital ad agency in the city centre. You are a copywriter who understands and gets digital. You’ll have a portfolio that is bursting with creative ideas and proven creative genius! Not all of it has to be digital. We do a lot of traditional too.
What’s the role?
The successful candidate will create concepts and copy for online advertising, social media, viral video, websites, direct mail, radio, press and T.V. with the majority of the focus being on Digital. This is a genuine opportunity to create high quality, award winning creative work for many of Ireland’s best known brands. We’re looking for people with a minimum of five years experience. A mix of traditional and digital would be very good. But not essential. Salary and benefits to match experience.
So, if you’d like to be part of an agency, known for creativity and innovation, please contact andrew@ican.ie
Today we wish a fond farewell to Upper Mount Street. We’re on the move and the builders are hard at work kitting out our super new offices on Ely Place. We’ll be getting the keys in January so in the meantime you’ll find us at our temporary digs at 77 St. John Rogerson’s Quay – The Fitzwilliam Business Centre.
It’ll be business as usual so you can still get a hold of us on 01 7756500 or via your usual contact. If you’re coming in to see us here are the directions.
I love this time of year. So my Friday post is full of Christmas spirit. As Christmas fast approaches, brands are out in force to engage consumers in different ways. TV ads have gone viral, and the use of technology continues to drive engagement through Augmented Reality and QR codes. Exciting times! Here’s just a few examples to get the ball rolling, and get everyone in the season spirit. HO HO HO!
This month will go down as being an epic month in the world of video games. We have seen the launch of some of the biggest gaming titles just before Christmas Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3, Battlefield 3, Assassins Creed Revelations, and Forza 4. Read more
