    Stay current on emerging media trends to proactively author POVs based on relevant industry, category, and client topics.

    Work with client services and cross functional teams to deliver new and proactive ideas to clients based on your media insight.

    Accountable for client quarterly business reviews delivering actionable insights to your accounts.

    Line management and team management:

    Experience in managing key/senior client and partner relationships and comfortable communicating both internally and externally at C-Level.
    Experience of directing media programs based on client/business objectives, and recommending marketing solutions to business challenges.
