About R/GA
In our 40-year history, we’ve changed a lot—from a culture-defining film title studio (Superman, Alien, Ghostbusters); to an interactive advertising agency; to an award-winning product and marketing agency with design, technology, communications, ventures, and IP practices. We like change, and we like to navigate our clients through it too.

Our approach to work is always human first. This unwavering focus helps us create meaningful and memorable experiences that live across digital platforms and often blur the line between the digital and real worlds. We believe disruptive thinking happens when you collide experts in design, technology, and culture.

About the Role
Our Experience Strategy practice makes sure the user’s voice is at the center, from early strategic thinking through the design of a product or service. We partner with companies to uncover what people need, want, and feel, then turn those insights into strategies that guide meaningful and intuitive experiences.

Our strategists are curious and creative problem solvers. They design inventive ways to understand what motivates users, translate those learnings into clear opportunities, and collaborate with designers, technologists, and creatives to bring new digital experiences to life. Together, we shape ideas that make products more useful, brands more human, and innovation more impactful.
