We're partnering with a leading global digital marketing agency to find an experienced Media Strategy & Planning Director to support a portfolio of high-profile client accounts.

The Role

Partner with Paid Search, Paid Social, Programmatic and Planning specialists.
Present strategic recommendations to senior stakeholders.

Build strong client relationships and become a trusted strategic partner.
Work collaboratively across internal teams to ensure seamless delivery.

Significant media strategy and communications planning experience gained within a media or digital agency.
Strong understanding of the wider media landscape across digital and offline channels.
Proven experience leading strategy for large or complex client accounts.
Excellent client-facing, presentation and stakeholder management skills.
Able to work autonomously and make an immediate impact.
Experience collaborating closely with cross-functional media teams.
