VP Consumer Media

Job Description

This senior leadership role is responsible for building and scaling a consumer media practice from the ground up within a performance-driven agency environment. The VP, Consumer Media will serve as the primary strategic lead and client-facing expert for consumer media, owning both new business growth and media strategy oversight across key accounts.

The role blends hands‑on media expertise with a strong new business mindset, partnering closely with creative and growth teams to support pitches, develop media narratives, and help close and deliver new client relationships. While not responsible for day‑to‑day execution, this leader will guide media strategy, oversee large budgets, and mentor execution teams as the practice grows.

This is an opportunity for a builder‑type leader—someone comfortable operating in both enterprise and entrepreneurial environments—who wants the autonomy to run a media division like their own business, with a long‑term runway to success and meaningful impact on agency growth.
