Media Director x2 - Must be based in London or Norwich
As the Advertising, Media & Sponsorship Director for our media brands, you’ll be tasked with helping to significantly grow our global B2B revenues from clients looking to target these sectors with their marketing, media, and events sponsorships budgets. This is a senior, front-line sales role dealing with some of the world's biggest companies and their agencies, and you'd be selling a suite of sophisticated, industry-leading media services that solve our clients' marketing challenges.
You’ll have experience selling complex B2B solutions to large, global clients and ideally have knowledge around media marketing solutions that include content, display advertising, sponsorships, events, email, and lead generation campaigns. You’ll understand that relevant audiences, engagement metrics, and data play a part in making these campaigns a success, as well as your professional, persuasive, and driven personality.
You’ll be managing existing relationships on a $1M+ portfolio, and building new trusted relationships with CMOs on Strategy, Media Planning, and Media Buying. You’ll also develop and grow existing and new relationships with media agency teams across the globe looking to target our specialist audiences in these sectors. We are looking for these two roles to work with clients in the Asia-Pacific region.
You’ll also have proven experience identifying and developing new business relationships and channels with target clients at the most senior level. You’ll be well versed in using LinkedIn to help with this and be a confident presenter on screen. We drive strong incoming enquiry levels through our websites and lead generation campaigns, so you’re not entirely on your own developing new business.
