Job Description

Media Transformation Execution — Serve as the day-to-day strategic media lead within the client's US organization, translating a global media transformation vision into actionable plans. Drive progress on audience-based planning, channel mix strategy, operating model changes, and measurement frameworks — owning the work from recommendation through implementation, in close coordination with the broader Digilant team.
Stakeholder Management & Alignment — Build and maintain strong working relationships across the client's media team leads. This role requires executive presence with a hands-on mentality.
Team Integration & Coordination — Function as the in-market extension of a senior Digilant advisory team. Proactively surface insights, flag risks early, and bring solutions. Responsiveness and communication within the team are as critical as client-facing performance.

Media Strategy Expertise — 6–9 years of progressive experience in media strategy and planning, with meaningful exposure to large CPG or Fortune 500 accounts. In-depth knowledge of planning across on and offline media, including advanced targeting, optimization against reach, frequency, quality and sufficiency, media mix modeling, contribution/attribution methodologies. A clear understanding of how data and audience strategy connect to business outcomes.
Reliability & Responsiveness — Demonstrated ability to operate as a trusted partner in client-embedded or client-side environments. Known for being consistently reachable, proactive in communication, and accountable to deadlines.
Collaborative Team Player — Thrives in a team-based delivery model where senior advisors are actively involved and credit is shared. Comfortable being the visible face of a collective effort, integrating input from multiple stakeholders, and elevating the work rather than owning it in isolation. Strong listener, strong communicator, and genuinely collaborative by nature.
