Established full-service creative agency in the Irish market, backed by the global WPP network
JWT Dublin is the Dublin-based office of J. Walter Thompson (JWT), one of the world's oldest and most storied advertising agency networks, founded globally in 1864. Operating as part of the WPP Group, JWT Dublin has served as a creative hub for Ireland, handling above-the-line advertising, brand strategy, digital campaigns, and integrated communications for both domestic Irish brands and multinational companies operating in the Irish market. The agency offers a full suite of advertising and marketing services including creative development, brand strategy, media planning, digital marketing, and content production. As part of the broader JWT and WPP network, the Dublin office benefits from global resources, proprietary research tools, and cross-agency collaboration while maintaining a local market focus tailored to Irish consumer culture and business needs. It is worth noting that globally, J. Walter Thompson was rebranded to Wunderman Thompson in 2018 following a merger with Wunderman, and subsequently rebranded again to VML in 2023 after merging with VMLY&R. The status of the Dublin office specifically under these global rebranding exercises may mean it now operates under the VML or Wunderman Thompson banner in Ireland, though it has historically been known as JWT Dublin.
