The role
We are looking for a Client Executive / Associate to join our agency partnership with Morrisons based in Bradford.

You will be part of the in-house team operating as the Morrisons Media Group, focusing on connecting their brands with a large base of shoppers.

This fast-paced role will see you manage a portfolio of clients and FMCG brands.

You will be accountable for the delivery of campaigns, from initial strategy development and briefing, through to implementation and evaluation.

What you'll be doing
We pride ourselves on creating challenging and exciting opportunities, meaning that no two days are the same.

However, here's an idea of what your responsibilities will look like:

Develop proposals and strategies based on supplier budgets to create cohesive media plan that will deliver against KPIs.
Liaise with a variety of stakeholders to activate FMCG branded activity across a range of channels, including on and offsite media within agreed timelines, following creative guidelines.
Work to ensure all content (including but not limited to media plans, status reports, performance reviews and recommendations) are completed to a high standard.
Build positive relationships with our clients, nuancing your approach with different stakeholders and ensure you present yourself as a trusted member of the team.
Support wider organisational projects, helping to create a great workplace and supporting with SMG's mission to lead connected commerce marketing.

What you'll need to have

Previous experience within a similar role.
An interest in working and growing a career within a marketing agency.
The ability to "think differently": As one of our key behaviours here at SMG, you won't be afraid to approach problems from a different angle or challenge the status quo.
Great organisational skills with excellent attention to detail and ability to follow processes.
A 'can do' attitude and strong work ethic to get stuck in and provide best in class marketing campaigns and client servicing.
Exceptional communication and relationship skills for managing key stakeholders.
P.s. we try really hard to make sure that we list only essential criteria here, BUT if you think you can do an amazing job, yet don't have every single thing on this list, we'd still love to hear from you._

If successful, you will then be invited to a
Recruitment Day on
Monday 4th December at our office in Bradford for the 2nd stage which will last a little longer, and involve some form of task to showcase your ability.
We then provide feedback from second stage interviews and let you know if you have been successful.
