Digital Producer

About Us

Codeword is a communication agency that helps brands create breakthrough comms, content, and community experiences.

A few more things you should know about Codeword

• The Codeword dream: Make good money doing work you care about with people you like.
• We love our clients (they write the checks!), which means maintaining a high bar for the creativity, smarts, responsiveness, and communication skills we offer them.
• We’re around 100 people, big enough to handle large-scale marketing programs, small enough that you’ll have an impact on our culture.
• We’re a friendly team, we look after each other, and we grow our careers together.
• We respect everyone’s personal life. After-hours emails are strongly frowned upon, night and weekend work is very rare, and employees are encouraged to pursue their side-hustles.
• We’re all grownups here, and we trust each other to get the work done, whether at home or in an office or a time zone on the other side of the world.
• We believe in defaulting to openness. Our calendars, our salary tiers, and our doors are open for all to see. (Except for secret client stuff, which we guard with our lives.)
• We’re a proud member of the global WE Communications family.
• Equal Opportunity: Codeword provides equal employment opportunity and doesn’t discriminate against employees or applicants because of age, race, color, religion, gender, national origin, veteran status, disability, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, marital status, or other legally protected class status.
• Diversity and Inclusion: Codeword works hard to foster a diverse team and an inclusive workplace where everyone thrives.

We aren’t a traditional agency, so we like to hire people who don’t necessarily fit the agency mold or check all the “right” boxes. If you’re on the fence about applying, please do!
