• 5-7 years of experience in omni-channel media strategy and planning • A strong passion for critical thinking, problem solving, and a deep understanding of how businesses, brands, and customers interact • Experience in 'Connections Planning' or Integrated Marketing Communications (IMC) • Expert-level proficiency with media research and audience profiling tools (GWI, MRI, ComScore, Pathmatics, etc.) • Demonstrated success in managing 360-degree sponsorship or tentpole campaign planning • Strong leadership presence with the ability to influence senior clients and navigate complex multi-agency (IAT) environments • A data-driven mindset paired with creative intuition—you know how to back up big ideas with hard numbers. • Proven experience in managing and growing direct reports, building a culture of excellence and curiosity.
