Lead the development of cross-channel media strategies, turning complex client challenges into clear, compelling recommendations grounded in insight and evidence. Turn research, audience understanding, media planning tools and campaign data into actionable insights that strengthen strategic decisions. Take ownership of strategic briefs and projects, bringing together account, specialist and international teams around a clear direction. Connect brand and performance thinking, building integrated approaches across upper and lower-funnel media to improve effectiveness. Use campaign performance and previous learnings to refine planning principles, implementation guidelines and future recommendations. Build strong partnerships with clients and creative agency teams, helping connect media and creative thinking throughout the planning process. Support and develop talent, managing and coaching a Strategy Manager while sharing knowledge and raising the quality of strategic thinking across the wider team. Qualifications What are we looking for? Strong experience in media strategy and cross-channel planning, ideally including work across international markets or multi-market clients. The ability to turn data and insight into a simple, persuasive strategic story, using media planning tools and PowerPoint effectively. A strong understanding of audiences and human behaviour, with the curiosity to explore what influences people and translate that into effective media thinking. Confidence communicating strategic recommendations and presenting clearly to clients, colleagues and agency partners. A passion for data-led, multi-channel planning, with familiarity with approaches such as Marketing Mix Modelling or other predictive and analytical methodologies. Experience building trusted stakeholder relationships and contributing to media pitches and collaborative client work. A collaborative approach to coaching and developing others, alongside the flexibility to manage multiple priorities and work effectively as client and business needs evolve.
