Full-service agency for pharma, QSR, and automotive brands
Merkley + Partners is a full-service advertising agency operating across media, digital, design, and CRM on a unified P+L. The tech stack is lightweight—Meta, Instagram, Google Ads, Excel, PowerPoint—reflecting a people-driven creative operation rather than a platform-heavy one. Current hiring leans heavily marketing (4 of 6 open roles) with accelerating velocity, while active projects around paid social optimization and campaign planning suggest a shift toward performance-driven client work in pharma.
