Deploy future-proof measurement: Design planning frameworks rooted in unified measurement, combining next-generation Media Mix Modeling (MMM), privacy-safe clean room analytics, and rigorous, continuous incrementality testing

Navigate identity deprecation: Architect cookie-less targeting and alternative tracking strategies to ensure media plans remain resilient against signal loss and evolving global privacy regulations

Advise senior client leaders: Serve as the strategic architect and trusted advisor to Fortune 100 CMOs and financial planning teams, clearly justifying media plans using rigorous commercial data and tech capabilities

Drive tech-forward growth: Lead the performance planning and data-identity narrative for high-value new business pitches, demonstrating how the agency's technology stack drives superior client profitability

Protect agency margins: Manage internal planning team resources, ensuring scope alignment, software/data tool utilization, billable efficiency, and operational profitability across all client accounts

You have:

Experience: 15+ years of progressive leadership within a major media holding company network (e.g., GroupM, Publicis Groupe, Omnicom Media Group, IPG, Dentsu) or a data-centric management consultancy, with a heavy emphasis on enterprise-level media planning
