About us

Rival is a marketing innovation consultancy that helps businesses develop strategies and capabilities to grow faster. 

We believe there is hyper-growth potential in any business with the right marketing mindset and model. You don’t need to be a start-up to be a challenger. 

We work with marketing leaders to deliver market-beating commercial results by building brands and teams that think and act like challengers. 

Rival is a now B Corp!

As a start-up, we took this as an opportunity to demonstrate how smaller organizations (without a huge budget or expertees in green initiatives!) can operate in a way that balances profit with purpose. We also wanted to challenge ourselves to be accountable and to continue improving with the support of the B Corp community.

Rival was built on the belief that any business can grow like a challenger with the right mindset and model. We applied this mind-set to our growth by baking sustainability into our business model and implementing small, creative strategies from day one.

“We aim to set a new standard for corporate social responsibility in our industry. We believe we have a responsibility to not just do well for ourselves and our clients, but do good for others and the world at large. We don’t believe we can change the world on our own. But we do believe we can make a meaningful difference in this industry and set a meaningful example for others to follow.”The Rival Handbook

Flexible working at Rival

At Rival, we fully embrace being a flexible place to work.

We want to redesign the workplace and workflow for the modern world. How we work will be a constant work-in-progress, and we’d love your input in evolving how we do what we do. We’ve tried to reimagine our process and systems ‘from scratch’ for the world of today to provide a foundation for our organizational health and development. 

We are a remote-first company. We want to give people the benefit and flexibility to work from home. However, the value and impact of spending time together in person is critical, especially at this early stage. Over our first two years we were fully remote, but in our effort to constantly learn, evolve, and grow, we’ve shifted to a remote-first, mostly-flexible model.

For anyone based in a hub city with more than one employee (currently just London), you will be required to be in the office on Wednesdays. You are also strongly encouraged to come into the office on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Every quarter, you will also be required to be in the office for three days for our “Team Week” where we focus on team building and professional development. These requirements do not apply to anyone who was hired as a remote employee over the first two years. We will also have our Rival Retreat each year where we bring everyone together (and all expenses will be covered).

What do we think of Rival?

Rival is an exciting and disruptive marketing consultancy, with a FlexScore of 100 from their employees! That is no small feat.

We want to build a long-term home for the world’s best marketing talent, not the world’s most popular marketing talent. We believe there are thousands of incredibly smart, hard-working, and talented people out there who haven’t been given the respect, support, and opportunity they deserve. We want to find the undervalued talent in this industry and give them the opportunity (and upside) they deserve!
