About the role

Translated into English from German by Korum. The employer's original wording is on their site.

What awaits you with us: 

  • You take on the leadership and strategic development of the Digital Planning department.

  • Together with your colleagues, you are responsible for the planning and development of digital media campaigns.

  • You lead your team leads with clarity and trust: you give them the framework they need to lead themselves and support them in developing their teams, setting priorities and taking on responsibility with conviction.

  • You actively develop your team: you recognise strengths and development potential, give regular feedback, support individual development paths and create an environment in which accountability, quality and collaboration are a matter of course.

  • You work closely with Client Management, Strategy, Procurement, BI, Data and other disciplines and bring new impulses around AI, innovative media approaches and data-driven communication into our work.

  • You recognise potential, develop processes and structures further and actively contribute to the development of pilot.

  • You work on an equal footing with the Management Board, other directors and department heads: you contribute to strategic decisions, represent your area clearly internally and represent pilot confidently externally.

What you should bring: 

  • Several years of experience in digital media planning as well as proven leadership experience.

  • In-depth expertise in the digital media landscape - you know the market mechanics, technologies and trends.

  • Experience in steering complex campaign architectures as well as in developing strategic media recommendations.

  • A very good feel for linking communication measures along the entire marketing funnel.

  • The ability to lead people, develop teams and bring together different perspectives: with clarity, trust and enthusiasm.

  • Decisiveness, entrepreneurial thinking and a structured, solution-oriented way of working, including in complex situations.

  • Communication skills at all levels: you convince clients, teams and stakeholders alike.

  • Very good German skills as well as good English skills, spoken and written.

  • Curiosity about new topics, particularly around BI, AI and data-driven media, and the motivation to continuously develop yourself and your environment.

And that's not all: 

  • Hybrid working (60% in the office & 40% mobile)

  • 30 days' holiday + Christmas Eve & New Year's Eve off

  • Modern and central offices

  • Individual further training via our Talent Forge

  • Plenty of room for creativity

  • Structured onboarding

  • Open feedback culture

  • English courses

  • Subsidy towards the Deutschlandticket

  • JobRad leasing

  • Company pension scheme & occupational disability insurance

  • Exclusive employee discounts

  • Regular parties & team events

  • Gifts for anniversaries & end of probationary period

  • Regular employee updates

  • And much more
