Qualifications

​​​​​​​What are we looking for?

At Starcom, we’re all about growth: for our clients, for the team and for you as an individual.  In this role, we're looking for someone with some experience in a Senior Account Executive role or similar, with prior experience in biddable media planning and/or activation, and within programmatic media.  Whilst we're not expecting you to have lead on project managing a complex activation, we'd like you to have been part of a team which has done this, so you're familiar with how it works.

In addition, you'll have:

  • Exposure to managing budgets and booking finance
  • Strong Microsoft Excel (Pivot tables, advanced formulas, formatting) experience
  • Analytical mindset and a natural affinity and competence for handling figures and data
  • Ability to manage communications across multiple time-zones, and organise and prioritise workstreams

What can we offer you?

In this role, we're happy for someone to join us who is looking for a step up into an Account Manager role, rather than having been at that level already.  We'll therefore help you get up to speed with the role, including the following:

  • How to lead latest activations across social platforms, including access to beta advertising opportunities;
  • Insight into the marketing/communications strategy behind one of the largest advertisers across the world; 
  • How to collaborate with a team to produce award-nominated and award-winning work
  • Enhance your critical and strategic thinking skills

A final word from the team:

“I love the exposure working on this account has given me, as a planner you will expand your knowledge across all areas of media, get to work across multiple time-zones and have the opportunity to work on some really big budget campaigns. The super collaborative and supportive team have been an added bonus too!” Global Planning Senior Executive, Starcom
