The Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) is the UK's independent regulator of advertising across all media, now including marketing on websites. We work to ensure ads are legal, decent, honest and truthful by applying the Advertising Codes.
We are independent of both the Government and the advertising industry and we are recognised by the Government, the courts and other regulators such as the Office of Fair Trading (OFT) and Ofcom as the body to deal with complaints about advertising.
Our work includes acting on and investigating complaints as well as proactively monitoring and taking action against misleading, harmful or offensive advertisements, sales promotions and direct marketing.
We are an equal opportunity employer offering market competitive salaries and a variety of benefits including private health insurance, interest free season ticket loans, contributory pension scheme (after six month's service) and a subsidised gym membership. Salaries are reviewed once a year, to take into account cost of living and performance. Normal working hours are 35 per week with some flexibility around start and finish times.
