Media Executive

3075 - Media Executive - GCS

Role Summary and Impact

We are looking for a  highly organised and motivated Account Executive to join our Duracell team based in London. You’ll help plan and run marketing campaigns for a high-profile client; it is a great opportunity for someone early in their career that wants to learn how campaigns are built, launched and tracked.

The team is responsible for delivering best-in-class planning and implementation of the E&A “Bunny Markets”. This role will allow you to develop a baseline of media planning knowledge across a number of channels including TV, digital, social and e-commerce. You’ll be part of a close-knit planning team, however have exposure to other internal teams across strategy, biddable and local markets. You will grow into a key client stakeholder and ultimately be responsible for project managing all media plans from creation to activation and analysis. We work with a number of different markets, so this is a great opportunity for someone who is eager to ‘get stuck in’ and (with the support of your colleagues) start to own your workstreams from the outset.

This is a brand led account whereby our main KPI is to achieve top of mind awareness, as well as drive sales of Duracell batteries. The main vehicles we activate across are paid social, programmatic online video, linear TV, CTV, OOH, pOOH and audio. The brand is highly aligned with key sporting events so there is also scope to be involved in key partnerships, working with the Sports & Entertainment team, alongside the more traditional media campaigns.
