Media Strategy:
- Develop and implement data-driven media strategies across digital channels (Paid Social, Programmatic, Search) and traditional channels for clients and prospects.
- Own media planning and budgeting to achieve performance marketing goals while ensuring alignment with broader business objectives.
- Collaborate with the creative, data, and account teams to ensure media plans are strategically grounded and integrated with client goals.
Collaboration & Client Management:
- Build and maintain strong client relationships, offering proactive strategic guidance and ensuring that campaigns are delivering on business goals.
- Interface regularly with account leads and clients to present strategies, insights, and recommendations, contributing to long-term business growth.
Innovation & Industry Trends:
- Stay on top of emerging industry trends, new technologies, and digital marketing strategies to keep clients ahead of the curve.
- Suggest innovative ways to leverage new media channels and technologies to achieve client goals.
Team Leadership & Development:
- Mentor and support junior members of the strategy and media teams, ensuring alignment with best practices and company standards.
- Lead training sessions for strategy and media teams, ensuring their outputs contribute to the company’s success.
Key Requirements:
- 6-8 years of experience in digital media planning, with a strong understanding of both creative and media aspects of campaigns.
- A strong understanding of the marketing funnel and comms planning.
- Proven expertise in managing campaigns across Paid Social, Programmatic, and Search.
- Strong analytical skills and experience working with data platforms such as GWI, Brandwatch, Google Analytics, etc.
- Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to present and explain complex strategies to clients.
