Job Description

This is a fantastic opportunity to join the insight team of a leading global media agency with a large and innovative range of research solutions, to get close to client’s business and communication strategy, to work at an international level with multiple markets, to gain exposure to new insights sources and to build experience across different industries.

Our team makes a very significant contribution to our agency’s income through work delivered to our clients, and we support nearly every new business pitch. We also develop simple but original ways to help our account teams interrogate industry data sets to quickly answer key client questions – enabling our mission of Better Decisions, Faster, improving the standard of work on our accounts and giving our agency and clients a competitive advantage in the marketplace.

Balancing all of these competing priorities has become a huge challenge and could hinder our future growth. We need an efficient and pro‑active leader to join us and improve our ways of working. We need help to focus in the right places so that we can deliver our commercial targets and also support the wider agency development roadmap.

You won’t be intimidated by our jargon or demands from senior stakeholders. You will be able to see the bigger picture. You will make sure that requests for new work are filtered and prioritised based on their commercial or strategic importance, whilst also making sure that we build and nurture relationships with all teams in the agency – even if they are not our current top priority.

Omnicom’s policy requires employees to work in the office for a minimum of three days a week, unless additional in-office days are directed by their agency or manager.
