Hoffman York (or HY, as our friends call us) was founded by Harry Hoffman and Wilford York in 1933. Like a fine wine, we continue to get better with age. Over the last 85 years, we have acquired nearly a dozen small agencies and moved into one of Milwaukee’s Coolest Office Spaces located downtown in the heart of Milwaukee’s Historic Third Ward. We’ve achieved our success through late nights and early mornings fueled by coffee, creativity and a commitment to Return on Ideas (RO!). Each of our 70+ employees have contributed to award-winning campaigns for clients like Montana Office of Tourism and Business Development, Wisconsin Lottery, Yamaha and more. HY offers clients a full suite of integrated services ranging from creative, web design & development, research, PR, social media and media planning and buying. Hey, that’s where you come in. HY is looking to add an Assistant Media Planner to our team.
