Your responsibilities will include:

• Developing tailored digital media plans in response to client briefs, budgets and campaign objectives.
• Supporting international sales teams with media planning recommendations and campaign information.
• Forecasting digital advertising inventory using ad servers and reporting dashboards.
• Working with inventory teams to ensure media plans meet local commercial requirements and availability.
• Coordinating confirmed campaigns with traffic managers to ensure a smooth transition from planning to campaign delivery.
