Great work starts with great people
None of the amazing work that ICS does is possible without the special group of people behind it. We all have our own unique skills, interests, and backgrounds but one thing we all have is common is a desire to do great work together.
Who We Are
We care about each other, look after one another, and generally enjoy spending time together. We have long-standing partnerships with our clients, and many of our team members have
been with us for years.
It’s true. We actually like eachother as human beings!
Meet the Team
Our strength is in our diversity of talents, career maturity, and interests. We’re bound by a great sense of humor, delight in working together, and insistence on making really cool stuff.
Our Principles
Our Principles
Set expectations, meet expectations
Strategy is foundational to literally everything we do. Get ready to ask and answer “why” and “how” ALOT. We make sure to set expectations at every corner so that everyone from our clients to our designers to our pricipal knows what what the end goal is and how we’re going to measure success. We won’t quit until we’ve met and exceeded those expectations.
Do the right thing
In a lot of agencies, there can be pressure to cut corners to come under budget or hit a timeline. ICS insists on making budget and timeline work by doing the right thing. Be prepared to flexible, candid, and creative so we can work together to do the right thing and still create world-class work.
Quality over quantity
This one speaks for itself. We will always value quality over quantity. Our clients come to us for deep, strategic thinking that will guide them in their brand discovery journey. To do that, we create thoughtful, curated work. The more the merrier does not a strategy make.
Measure twice, cut once
Are you hearing a theme? ICS is thoughtful, intentionally, and strategic. Focus on the goal and methodology first and foremost gets us to our best work. So get ready to measure twice, before you jump in to execute.
Stay curious
Every single one of our team members has this quality in spades. Curiosity makes our work innovative, our team bonds stronger, and keeps our clients coming back to here our perspective. This attribute is a must so if you love imagining “what ifs”, this is the right fit.
Check your ego at the door
ICS is a team. Everyone brings something to the table and is continuously learning and growing. Big egos won’t fit through our bright yellow door, so make sure to leave that at home.
