ROLE.

We’re looking for a Campaign Manager to lead the planning, delivery and optimisation of programmatic and emerging digital media campaigns for our valued clients.

This is a client-facing role, sitting at the intersection of strategy, media planning and performance. You’ll own the campaign approach end-to-end: identifying the right partners, shaping media plans, briefing activation teams, and ensuring campaigns deliver (and keep getting better). This role is about smart planning, strong partnerships and relentless performance improvement.

IMPACT OF ROLE

• Client success - as a trusted expert, you’ll help clients navigate the complex digital landscape to unlock success with your approach

• Business growth - you’ll help our growth and new business team to deliver integrated responses across pitches and upsell opportunities

• Media innovation - you’ll take an active role in building a meaningful and forward-thinking approach (not just deliver the same thing everything else is doing)

• Delivery excellence - above all, you’ll deliver high quality work that you’ll see through to impact, building great relationships with agency teams, our clients and media partners

• Utilise company platforms (such as Asana, Float, and other internal tools) effectively to manage tasks, resources, and workflows.

• Log time accurately and on schedule, providing transparency and supporting operational planning.

BEHAVIOURS IN THIS ROLE.

• Highly personable: you’ll be comfortable building relationships quickly with key stakeholders across our partners and clients

• Gets to the bottom of the problem: you’re solution oriented and someone that doesn’t give up until they’ve found the right answer to the question

• Embraces collaboration: you’re a team player and excel at bringing the right people together to deliver success

• Cuts noise to signal: you’re data-driven, analytical - but most importantly, you know how to prioritise and laser in on what matters, not what doesn’t
