We need a media manager to join our team, who will become the head of department's right-hand person in working with TV and radio advertising. This is not an administrative position: the core of the work involves media plans, negotiations with platforms, documents, output control, and reporting.
Initially, tasks will be handled together with the head of department, and then the employee will gradually take on independent blocks and campaigns. We are looking for someone who wants to grow in the media sphere and brings tasks to completion.
What you will be doing

- Analyzing audience, ratings, reach, frequency, and other placement indicators.
- Requesting and comparing offers from TV channels, radio stations, and agencies, preparing media plan options and budget allocation.
- Participating in negotiations on cost, deadlines, and placement conditions, as well as in the purchase of advertising time.
- Coordinating the transfer and legal approval of advertising materials, working with contractors to create and refine TV and radio commercials.
- Monitoring advertising placements, deadlines, postponements, and any discrepancies with the media plan.
- Preparing final reports and assisting in evaluating campaign effectiveness.
- Managing contracts, invoices, and closing documents, maintaining advertising expenses in CRM and spreadsheets.
- Tracking competitor advertising and preparing short analytical insights.
- Using AI tools for drafts, spreadsheets, and presentations – with mandatory result verification.
