Job description

Are you obsessed with social platforms, love getting under the hood of how they work, and want to build your career across some of the biggest brands, agencies and platforms in the market?

We’re looking for a Trading Executive (Social) to join our central Omnicom Media craft team.

This is a brilliant opportunity for someone with hands-on paid social experience who wants to broaden their exposure beyond individual campaigns and become a go-to social specialist across the wider group.

You’ll work across Meta, TikTok, LinkedIn, Pinterest, Snapchat, Reddit and X, partnering with our activation teams and platform partners to help us trade smarter, adopt new products and capabilities, and continuously improve the way we work.

What you’ll get involved in:

• Becoming a trusted social platform expert for our activation team
• Troubleshooting campaigns and supporting teams with more complex trading challenges
• Building relationships with our key social partners and getting early exposure to new products, features and beta opportunities
• Testing new platform capabilities and helping roll out best practice across Omnicom Media
• Supporting training, Lunch & Learns and platform education across our teams
• Helping teams get the most from our internal technology, including Omni and Synergy
• Improving processes, workflows and operational standards across social trading
• Supporting campaign audits, platform governance and trading best practice
• Working collaboratively across activation, investment, finance and our wider agency network

Who are we looking for?

You’ll already have a good grounding in paid social and understand how campaigns are set up and traded across platforms such as Meta and TikTok.

More importantly, you’ll be curious, proactive and hungry to learn. You’ll enjoy solving problems, helping others and finding better ways of doing things.

You don’t need to know everything on day one — but you do need to be someone who asks questions, gets stuck in and genuinely wants to become an expert in their craft.

If you’re currently working in paid social and thinking “what’s next?”, this could be a fantastic opportunity to expand your platform knowledge, build relationships across the industry and gain exposure across the broader Omnicom Media network.
