If you know which area you would like to join, please let us know in your application. If you are unsure, we can help advise you so please still apply!
You’ll join our growing Media Planning team, getting stuck into campaign planning and activation early on, coupled with a 6-week intensive course into the world of Media Planning & Buying. Throughout your training, you will obtain best in class industry professional qualifications with the likes of IPA (Institute of Practitioners in Advertising), Thinkbox TV Masters and Google fundamentals qualification.
The Bootcamp training offers a plethora of media channel training, run by our internal media experts, as well as external partners, covering all of the key media platforms and tools. You will have exposure to clients from an early stage, helping them run active campaigns across all media channels, in a number of different sectors.

Medialab is the UK’s leading independent media agency, and one of the fastest growing. We’re a media agency that’s made differently. Purpose-led, data-driven, founder-run and proudly independent.
Our independence means we can focus 100% on doing the right thing to secure success for our clients and our brilliant people. We work with a wide variety of clients including SunLife, Standard Life, Laithwaites Wine, EMMA, Save the Children, Mind, Guide Dogs, Alzheimer’s Society, RNLI and Clearscore.
We’re a diverse team of 150 people (and growing), based near Oxford Circus. Our people-first, purpose-driven culture has been key to our success. We commit to creating a more sustainable future through our partnership with FuturePlus, and foster a diverse and inclusive culture, through a number of DEI Communities to drive real change. We offer a supportive environment for working parents, carers, those who are (peri)menopausal and anyone else who needs it, and flexible working opportunities to all, from day one.
Our entrepreneurial spirit means success is rewarded and there are no limits to what you can achieve, which our employees agree with, by supporting our place in Campaign’s ‘Best Places to work’ for 4 years in a row, and we recently won Silver in Campaign’s Agency of the Year Awards.
