Job description

Overview

As a leading global media network, Omnicom Media Group (OMG) sets itself apart with an agile, client-first approach that helps businesses thrive today and into the future. With more than 26,000 employees globally, OMG has the talent, expertise, and clout to deliver unprecedented levels of innovation for our clients. At Omnicom Media Group, we don’t just adapt to change, we propel it - crafting media and moments that create connections and deliver better outcomes. We are committed to transformative priorities that inform how clients experience the world around them through our Agency as a Platform proposition (AaaP).

ABOUT THE ROLE

In 2023 we merged the individual brand Business Development, Marketing and Design Teams around the world into one global GBX (Growth, Brand and Experience) team of 70+ specialists in 3 locations around the world (London, New York, Singapore). This role sits within the London based Growth Team.

The Growth Director will be charged with supporting the Head of Growth with the end-to-end development and delivery of Growth pitches, ensuring high quality delivery, driving pitch timelines and adherence to deadlines. You will be responsible for operational excellence – supporting Head of Growth, agency teams and the pitch leads. In this role you will lead and support the development of pitch presentations, assisting with creation of pitch content, brainstorming ideas with the teams and development of the pitch story (by providing your POV and perspective).

About You

You will have experience in pitching for the Media Industry in a New Business/Growth function or Account Management from a global media agency.

You will have strong knowledge of the media landscape (from a local, regional, global perspective) with the ability to persuade and effectively influence others – fostering good working relationships - building consensus among different stakeholders, including senior executives, managers, and employees.

You will be a results-driven, agile, change agent with the commitment and confidence to assume a leadership role in an evolving complex environment to drive growth initiatives with limited resources and roll-up your sleeves attitude to achieve desired results.

Unquestionable personal integrity, fairness, and credibility necessary to gain the trust and commitment of individuals at all levels.

Demonstrated success at cultivating strong relationships with internal and external stakeholders and creating partnerships at all levels to achieve results.

Empathetic and engaging individual, who listens well, is responsive, solutions focused and results oriented.

Flexible Working

At Omnicom Media Group, we are committed to supporting flexibility for our people while fostering collaboration, innovation, and teamwork. We have a hybrid working model (three days in the office, two working remotely), to ensure that we meet the needs of both our people and our business, balancing the benefits of in-person connections with the flexibility of remote working. Our standard working hours are 9:30 – 17:30, but we offer the ability to flex around core hours of 10:30 – 16:30 to give our people flexibility on how they manage their working day, whether that’s in the office or working remotely. For example, you could start work at 8:30 and finish at 16:30 or start at 10:30 and finish at 18:30.

We encourage open conversations between our people and managers to help navigate high-need periods and individual circumstances. Our goal is to create an environment where people feel genuinely supported to do their best - both in their careers and in their lives outside of work.
