AV Manager

The7stars is unlike any other agency. The distinction started in 2005 when we named ourselves after a pub and made a promise to do things differently.

This commitment guides our work, thinking, and treatment of one another, embodied in a single word: Freedom .

Our Freedom philosophy influences our people, products, and planning. It allows us to plan & buy media freely, develop careers, take holidays when needed, invent tools, and create a platform for open communication. This has helped us become a great place to work.

We have been named Campaign’s Best Place to Work in 2020, 2022, and 2023, and one of the UK’s Best Companies to Work For for the last 12 years.

The7stars comprises passionate media professionals focused on creating excellent work for clients like Warner Music, Entain, Suzuki, Gousto, Freemans, and The People’s Postcode Lottery. While UK-focused, we operate within an agile global network extending into Europe and the US.

If you value free thinking and integrity, the7stars is the agency for you.
