  • Skilled in Git for version control and team collaboration.
  • Problem-solving mindset and sharp attention to detail.

  • Offices in the WPP Campus at Bubenská 1, offering various events and conferences directly in the building, plus discounts in the surrounding area;
  • Close collaboration with other WPP agencies, so when we need expertise, we don’t have to go far;
  • Meal allowance of CZK 99/day;
  • Dog & baby friendly approach;
