Job Description:
You already know how to build a media plan. Now have more say in what goes into it.
After a few years in media, the interesting questions become bigger: Are we solving the right problem? Is this really the best use of the budget? What are we missing?
As a Connection Planner at dentsu, you'll turn those questions into better plans. You'll work with clients, media owners, Investment, Strategy, and Performance teams to shape recommendations, uncover opportunities, and make sure the thinking actually gets into market.
This is for planners ready to move beyond execution and build the judgment, confidence, and influence to become a trusted voice for clients.
