Paid Media Strategist

Are you a cultural navigator and strategic driver who builds genuine stakeholder relationships as naturally as you drive campaign performance? We should talk.

As our Paid Media Strategist, your mission is to dominate the attention economy. You'll be a cultural navigator and strategic growth driver for iconic streaming and entertainment brands, bridging complex advertising systems with exceptional customer experiences to drive SVOD, AVOD, TVOD, and FAST viewership. This role blends campaign strategy, digital account growth, and intrapreneurial focus — positioning our Digital services for streaming industry growth over the next 12 months.

You'll bring deep expertise in streaming and entertainment campaigns, combining analytical rigour with tactical execution. As the "strategic go-to," you strategise, optimise, and innovate. You're a proactive communicator and decisive leader who thrives in ambiguity, moving seamlessly between high-level strategy and ownership of daily execution. Your track record, sound judgement, and tech-savvy approach will future-proof our digital marketing services in the AI age.

This is an initial six-month full-time contract based in our central London office, right in the heart of the entertainment industry.

You’re not just running campaigns, you’re the strategic force behind how iconic entertainment brands connect with audiences in a fast-moving attention economy. Our Digital services are at an inflection point, and the person in the role shapes that trajectory - owning performance ROI, building the kind of client trust that drives account growth from the inside out, and directly impacting viewership and revenue for some of the most recognizable titles in streaming. This starts as a six-month contract by design. We want the right fit, not just the right CV. If you lead with confidence, build trust quickly, and hold yourself to a standard that makes “good enough” genuinely uncomfortable, this is your opportunity to build something, not just run it.
