Your working day with us:

• Your morning usually starts with an overview of current campaign status, appointments & deadlines, as well as emails from clients, marketers and internal teams
• Then it's straight into internal coordination on ongoing campaigns, as you are the interface between the client, strategy and the internal media specialists
• Now it's time for conceptual work: you evaluate market, target group and performance data, develop cross-media media strategies and allocate budget across various channels such as TV, cinema, online video & display, paid social, (D)OOH, (digital) audio with the aim of maximum impact along the customer journey
• A central part of your everyday life is, of course, taking part in client meetings.

You translate complex media topics into clear decision-making bases and advise at eye level, strategically, solution-oriented and transparently
• What must not be missing with us? Of course: exchange with your colleagues. Whether at shared lunch breaks or over a coffee break: we love the exchange, whether private or about future trends and formats that you simply must test and try out
• Your day usually ends with creating reports or presentations on learnings or proposal presentations: you know that it is not only the numbers that matter, but the story behind them!

This is you:

• Successfully completed commercial training or a degree in media, marketing, communication, business administration or a comparable qualification
• Several years of experience in media consulting and/or media planning, ideally with a cross-media focus
• Very good understanding of cross-channel campaigns and of developing media strategies
