About us

dentsu Aotearoa is a uniquely kiwi business raised in New Zealand and born in Japan. We’re a world class, award-winning agency that prides itself on creating experiences that impact society and challenge the way we think. We are more than an agency, we’re a catalyst for innovation. We understand our purpose in society is to create meaningful impact through technology and data, and to craft human experiences through our dentsu Creative, dentsu Media and Merkle brands.

At dentsu Aotearoa we are approximately 250 strong across Auckland and Wellington. We are part of a global network of over 70,000 craft experts across 145 countries, with our global dentsu Group HQ in Tokyo, Japan. When you join us, you are becoming part of one team. One team with diverse talents and a shared ambition to innovate the way brands are built. One team that collaborates across disciplines and boundaries. One team that wants to innovate with a purpose.

What your role and typical day might look like

In this role you play an active role in planning and executing media campaigns end to end. This includes supporting and mentoring a team of juniors, taking ownership of the administrative needs of the team, overseeing the execution with suppliers and monitoring media campaigns. In addition, you also play a lead role with day-to-day communication with the client teams (e.g. Marketing Managers) to align briefs and report back on progress.

While this role leans toward traditional / offline media, your digital expertise will help shape integrated, future-ready campaigns. You’ll be deeply connected to every part of the strategy, collaborating across teams and managing stakeholders with confidence.

This might include

  • Stay ahead of media trends, technologies, and innovations across the industries in your client portfolio
  • Lead day-to-day client communications and oversee end-to-end campaign execution
  • Manage WIPs, timelines, and agency partner relationships
  • Ensure delivery of performance metrics and campaign reporting
  • Contribute to media planning and strategy with client insights
  • Support award submissions and new business pitches
  • Mentor and manage junior team members
  • Support efforts across recruitment, training, and performance reviews
  • Collaborate closely with media execution teams to manage client expectations and ensure timely, high-quality delivery
  • Partner with Business Directors and Client Partners to identify and capture award-worthy work
  • A bit about you

  • At least 3 years’ experience working within a Media Agency or similar environment
  • Understanding of media planning, buying and strategy, ideally within New Zealand
  • Experience with media platforms such as Pegasus, TVMap, Roy Morgan and Nielsen
  • Strong communication and stakeholder relationship management skills with the ability to present ideas and solutions to clients and internal stakeholders.
  • Effective organisation skills and time management
  • Ability to manage a small team of people and work collaboratively
  • Excellent negotiation and client service skills
  • A proactive problem-solver who thrives in a collaborative, fast-paced environment
  • Be a champion of meaningful progress

    At dentsu Aotearoa, our diverse and inclusive culture enables our employees to bring their whole selves to work and be proud of doing so. For us, this is the foundation for great innovation which, in turn, generates better outcomes for our people, partners and communities. This is why we encourage applications from people with disabilities, and of all ages, nationalities, backgrounds and cultures.

    We’re committed to creating a workplace where everyone feels seen, heard, and valued. If you want to belong to a one global network where opportunities are limitless – we look forward to welcoming you.
