Job description

Your role as a Digital Executive at Omnicom Media

As a Digital Executive, you’ll embark on a challenging training programme where we’ll train you to become a Digital Professional specialising in Search, Display and Social Media Advertising. Through learning, but above all through hands‑on experience. From day one, you’ll be setting up and managing online media campaigns for our clients. Of course, it doesn’t stop there, because as a Digital Executive you’ll undertake various training courses in areas such as Google Ads, Facebook Business Manager and DV360, ensuring your knowledge is always up to date. What’s more, during the training programme, together with your personal coach, we’ll discover what you’re good at – and, more importantly, what energises you. That way, we’ll prepare you as well as possible for your next step within Omnicom Media.

We are people‑obsessed at Omnicom Media

What do you want to achieve? You’re in charge of your own growth and we facilitate the opportunities. So do take the initiative and your career will really take off. Want to grow in your specialism or head in a completely different direction, perhaps working with clients abroad? It’s all possible!

‘My biggest achievement was that, after just a few weeks, I’d gained enough confidence to set up a campaign for Mercedes‑Benz on my own, as the specialist was going on holiday. I had weekly meetings with the client, which gave me the chance to put my newly acquired knowledge to the test straight away. If there was anything I didn’t know, I could always rely on my colleagues. Still, it feels great to have had my own project so soon!’

What is Omnicom Media?

Omnicom Media Group is an international media agency; we develop media strategies and plans for our clients and have all the media expertise in‑house to bring these campaigns to life. And by all media expertise, we mean everything: TV, Radio, Print, OOH, SEA, Social, Programmatic, SEO, CRO, Voice, E‑commerce and Branded Content & Influencers.

We have offices in both Amsterdam and Groningen. For this role, we are currently specifically looking for new colleagues to join our team in Groningen. There, you’ll work alongside an ambitious team, whilst also being part of the wider Omnicom Media network. To keep the connection strong, we have a set day when we meet up at our office in Amsterdam, and we regularly organise team activities and opportunities to get to know each other better.

What makes Omnicom Media special? We have a strong team spirit. You’re in charge of your own work and career, but as colleagues we’re always there to help you. Our focus? Finding the best solution for our clients. Our approach? Creating smart campaigns that are entirely data‑driven.

What we offer you

• An attractive salary starting at €2,600. Every 7 months, there is a fixed pay rise of €200. Upon promotion to specialist, you’ll start on a salary of at least €3,000; on average, people progress to specialist within 1.5 to 2 years.


• A training programme (not a traineeship) in which you’ll learn all the ins and outs of Search, Display and Social Media advertising as a fully-fledged full‑time employee;


• 29 days off per year (27 holiday days + 2 days to use as you wish) to ensure you get the rest you need. You’ll also, of course, receive your holiday pay in May;

• Flexible working hours. On average, we work 7.5 hours a day, but whether you start later or finish earlier is up to you;

Your tools

• A higher vocational education (HBO) or university degree ;


• Strong analytical skills ;

• Knowledge of digital advertising isn’t a requirement. An affinity for it, however, is! So you can apply without any work experience.

Q&A

Do you think you’ll benefit greatly in the future from the knowledge and experience you’ve gained here?

After the programme, you’ll be able to thrive in all areas of digital marketing and you’ll have plenty of experience from all the different campaigns you’ve worked on.” – Mylène Meijssen - Digital Executive

How did you find the onboarding period and the first few weeks?

This means that as a newly appointed Executive, you can quickly take on your first tasks, which is great because you immediately feel valued. What’s more, the support from your manager and the whole team is truly fantastic.” – Jip van Ooij - Programmatic Specialist
