“Upp is a place where everyone gets their hands dirty! It’s made up of great people and great work which, in turn, creates a great atmosphere. I’ve learnt more working at Upp than I have at any other agency – this is due to the thirst for knowledge and the strong support network that surrounds all of us.”
Craig – Creative
“Working at Upp is like running the last stretch of a race over and over. High energy, absolutely packed with people cheering you on, and the best feelings of achievement and satisfaction. Everyone has their own reasons for taking part, but you’re all working towards the same goal and it feels fantastic. And a team beer at the finish line on a Friday is glorious.”
Mel – Client Services
“At Upp B2B, every day is a new day with lots of exciting things to do and being part of a really energetic team full of ideas. There’s always a good vibe in the office and it’s a very nice environment to work in.

Senior Planner
Salary & benefits – subject to experience
We’re looking for a really bright mind to play a key role in our growing strategy and insight team.
An overactive mind that likes unravelling and solving the challenges others fear to contemplate. An intrepid insight explorer, a deep-diving data geek, a rational thinker who knows how to translate facts and figures into emotionally-charged propositions.
This is a great opportunity for an experienced agency ‘thinker’ to join a team of like-minded strategic marketers who love getting under the skin of a meaty client brief. You’ll be fascinated by all things brand – positioning, proposition and perception, and be able to think like a business consumer to plan and plot great user experiences online.
The salary we offer will be in line with your planning experience, and we’re looking for somebody with the potential to fast track to a Head of Planning role within 12 months.
It goes without saying that we’re looking for a b2b supremo with experience of working with big name brands and lesser-known industry leaders. As this will also be a client-facing role you need to enjoy fronting your thinking and selling in your ideas to senior audiences looking for expert guidance.
For a confidential chat or a copy of the job description for this role, please drop a line to our Director of Strategy, max.clark@uppb2b.co.uk
