Magellan is an owner-managed agency specializing in connected shopper marketing. For over 20 years, we’ve been developing value-added solutions for brands in the food, beverage, beauty, and pharmaceutical industries—with a team of about 15 people, flat hierarchies, and a passion for great creative work.
Our strength: Brand presentation and brand activation throughout the entire shopper journey—from digital engagement and packaging to brand presence at the point of sale (PoS). As a consultant, you’ll work with market leaders in the beverage and dairy industries and collaborate with our team to develop solutions that strengthen brands and drive sales.

You present concepts persuasively, drive decisions, and keep clients and the team on a clear, shared path.
You take ownership of your accounts: You drive initiatives, identify risks early on, and are accountable for results and the financial success of projects.
You use AI strategically for research, analysis, concept development, presentations, and project work—and turn critically evaluated results into robust recommendations.
