We are now excited to invite applications for the role of Senior Client Executive with our awesome team in Sydney.

The role:

As Senior Client Executive, you’ll be the day-to-day link between our agency and two standout clients: a jewellery brand and a skincare brand. You’ll help shape and deliver media campaigns across all channels, with a particular focus on outdoor and digital.

You’ll join a close-knit team of nine, from associate through to client partner, so there’s always someone to learn from and plenty of ways to sharpen your craft.

This is a role for someone ready to take real ownership: you’ll get hands-on exposure to multi-channel planning and work directly with clients from day one.

Core responsibilities:

• Support the development and execution of integrated media campaigns across multiple traditional media channels including Linear TV, Outdoor, Audio and Radio. 
• Assist with the translation of client briefs into media strategies, planning and investment recommendations to deliver best-in-class solutions. 
• Manage the end-to-end campaign process, including planning, booking, optimisation, tracking and post-campaign reporting. 
• Ensure campaigns are delivered on time, within budget and in line with agreed KPIs and objectives. 

Client Management 

• Build strong working relationships with mid-level client stakeholders, becoming a trusted day-to-day contact for campaign queries and updates. 
• Act as a liaison between clients, media owners, agency village, and internal specialists to ensure seamless campaign delivery. 
• Confidently present Tier 2 responses to briefs, post analysis campaigns, and own and present sections of quarterly business reviews to key stakeholders. 
• Maintain a high level of attention to detail across budgets, timelines, reporting and campaign accuracy. 

Media Planning & Trading 

• Use industry planning and buying tools to support cross-channel planning and delivery, ensuring data-led recommendations. 
• Monitor campaign performance and support optimisation to improve results across channels.

Financial Management 

• Support with campaign budgeting, forecasting and financial reconciliation, ensuring accurate tracking of media investment. 
• Lead monthly financial reporting and client invoicing processes where required. 
• Ensure all campaign activity aligns with client agreements and internal financial procedures. 

A bit about you:  

• Proven experience in media planning and buying across multiple channels, in particular traditional media.
• Strong analytical skills with high attention to detail; comfortable working with numbers, forecasting, reporting, and media planning tools. 
• A confident communicator with the ability to work directly with client stakeholders, presenting insights and recommendations with clarity. 
• Self‑sufficient, proactive and solutions‑focused, thriving in environments where you can take full ownership of a client patch while still drawing on collaborative support when needed. 

What's in it for you?

• Two distinctive brands, two very different audiences
• Genuine responsibility, not just support work
• A collaborative team at every level, with room to grow
• Real flexibility to work when and where you feel most productive with our ‘Be the Best Us' Policy
• The opportunity to give back with dedicated volunteer leave and our whole-company event, One Day for Change
• 5 weeks annual leave after 2 years of service and 3 whole company Wellness days off per year for you to switch off and take your day, your way
