Media Executive​/Senior Media Executive

We’re looking for a talented Media Executive or Senior Media Executive (depending on experience) to join our growing media team in Manchester. This is a hands‑on role where you’ll work alongside experienced Account Managers and Directors to plan, activate, and report on best‑in‑class media campaigns for our clients.

If you’re someone who thrives in a collaborative environment, loves the detail as much as the big picture, and is ready to take real ownership of campaign elements, this could be the perfect next step in your media career.

• Support the development and delivery of multi‑channel media plans that meet client objectives and budgets.
• Take ownership of planning tasks including research, audience insights, and competitor analysis.
• Coordinate with internal teams (Creative, Strategy, Data) to ensure seamless campaign delivery from brief to execution.
• Build and maintain strong relationships with media owners across relevant channels.
• Negotiate added value and secure the best possible activations for clients.
• Stay informed on new opportunities, inventory, and partnership possibilities.
• Manage the end‑to‑end campaign process: briefing, planning, implementation, monitoring, and reporting alongside Account Managers.
• Provide clear, insightful post‑campaign analysis that highlights performance and learnings.
• Ensure all finance and admin processes are accurate and up to date across your accounts.
• Attend client meetings and contribute to presentations with confidence.
• Communicate proactively with clients and internal stakeholders throughout the campaign lifecycle.
• Stay on top of industry trends, platform updates, and emerging media channels to bring fresh thinking to the team.
• 1‑2 years of experience in a media planning, buying, or account management role.
• Strong organisational skills with a keen eye for detail.
• Excellent communication skills, both written and verbal.
• Ability to juggle multiple campaigns and deadlines without dropping the ball.
• A genuine curiosity about media, culture, and what makes great campaigns work.
• Experience planning or buying Out of Home (OOH) media.
• Familiarity with media planning tools, reporting platforms, or campaign management systems.
• A proactive, can‑do attitude with a willingness to learn and grow.

The level of seniority (Media Executive vs Senior Media Executive) will be determined based on your experience and skillset.
