Company Description

Ever dreamt of working for a top-notch creative agency, with award winning work across global brands and a transformative new model centered around creativity and data?

About LeGarage part of LePub

Le Pub/Publicis Italy is one of the most admired creative forces in the world (“#1 Creative Agency in World” – Adweek 2022, “#2 Creative Agency in the World” at Cannes 2022, “Most Effective Ad in the World” – Kantar 2021), combining best-in-class creativity, inventiveness, and technology expertise with creatively ambitious clients.

We operate as the R&D engine for brands — designing new platforms, products, services, and business models that move culture and drive growth.

From connected nightlife ecosystems to AI-powered brand utilities, we build what traditional marketing can’t.

We’re looking for a Business Lead to help shape what’s next — commercially & structurally.

You will:

• Turn invention into scalable revenue
• Structure new business models
• Unlock partnerships beyond traditional agency scopes
• Help position LeGarage as the future-facing growth engine within LePub and beyond

You will operate at the intersection of strategy, commercial design, and entrepreneurial execution.

What You’ll Do

1. Turn Innovation into Business

• Develop monetization frameworks for new products, platforms and experiences
• Build scalable revenue models (licensing, partnerships, ecosystem plays, etc.)
• Translate creative ambition into commercial logic

2. Drive Strategic Growth

• Identify high-value opportunities across markets
• Lead senior client conversations
• Shape expansion into new offices and territories

3. Build the Ecosystem

• Unlock partnerships with tech, media, cultural and platform players
• Structure co-investment and shared value models
• Connect brands to culture in non-traditional ways

4. Help Define the Future of Marketing

• Challenge legacy agency thinking
• Push toward productized, tech-enabled, performance-driven innovation
• Help formalize LeGarage’s growth playbook for 2026–2030

Who You Are

• 8–12+ years in growth, venture building, innovation or strategic leadership
• Comfortable operating with C-level stakeholders
• Strong commercial instinct + entrepreneurial mindset
• Experience in agency, consulting, digital platforms, tech or start-up ecosystems
• Able to operate in ambiguity and turn vision into structure

You are excited by building something that doesn’t fully exist yet.

What Success Looks Like (Year 1)

• Clear new revenue streams generated from innovation products
• Structured monetization models embedded in our offerings
• Strategic partnerships unlocked
• Recognizable positioning of LeGarage as the growth lab within LePub

What we offer 

• A competitive salary, a laptop, phone, and travel expense reimbursement.

• A super ‘gezellig’ (if you know you know) office where you can bring your dog
• Hybrid working, with work-from-home days coordinated with your team members.
• The Work Your World Program: the opportunity to work elsewhere in the world for 6 weeks a year.
• Discounts on Classpass, a bike plan, and clothing repair service.
