Media Planning Manager

Media Planning Manager

£45,000 | Hybrid (3 days per week in office) | London

The Opportunity

A leading global media and marketing network is looking for a Media Planning Manager to join their team, working on one of the network's biggest and most high-profile global accounts.

This is a true planning-focused role (approx. 80% offline / 20% digital), covering channels including TV and linear, with cross-channel marketing (XCM) and retail media planning also forming part of the remit. Some knowledge of activation and digital platforms is a strong advantage, but this is not an activation-heavy position.

You'll be working within a specialist "open door" style integrated team, sitting close to both planning and activation functions, and will play a genuinely international role — collaborating with teams and stakeholders across 12 European markets.

What You'll Be Doing

\n
• Owning campaign planning and management across offline and cross-channel activity
\n
• Acting as a key client-facing contact, overseeing communications and campaign intent
\n
• Collaborating closely with planning and activation teams across multiple European markets
\n
• Presenting directly from planning and data platforms (experience with tools such as Talkwalker/Tableau-style data or planning platforms is a plus, though not essential)
\n
• Managing international stakeholders and ensuring consistency of approach across regions
\n

What We're Looking For

\n
• Solid experience in media planning, ideally with exposure to offline/TV and cross-channel campaigns
\n
• Some activation knowledge/experience is a bonus, but not the core focus of the role
\n
• Proven experience managing international or multi-market campaigns and stakeholders (candidates with UK-only market experience are less likely to be considered, unless truly exceptional across all other criteria)
\n
• Confident, senior client-facing communication skills
\n
• Comfortable working with global blue-chip brands in a fast-paced, demanding environment
\n
• Strong platform/data literacy is desirable
\n

The Details

\n
• Salary: £45,000
\n
• Working pattern: Hybrid - 3 days per week in the office (with some flexibility)
\n
