You're a cultural navigator and strategic driver for iconic entertainment brands like Hasbro and Sony, bridging complex programming systems with exceptional customer experiences to drive 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 go beyond campaign management to strategise, optimise, and innovate. You are 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 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, in the heart of the entertainment industry. What You'll Own PIONEER PAID MEDIA EXCELLENCE: Develop and execute impactful international multi channel paid media and social advertising strategies. Own the "why" and the "how" for our clients, defining account level strategy and owning performance ROI.

Champion automation and iterative workflow improvements to push the boundaries of operational efficiency. Accountability: client ROI and SLA metrics ACCOUNT & PARTNER MANAGEMENT: Architect global paid account success, taking full ownership of your portfolio and forging powerful client partnerships.

Design and execute full funnel strategies specifically for entertainment clients. Take an intrapreneurial approach to identifying upsell and cross sell opportunities that add genuine value to the client's ecosystem while expanding Wordbank's footprint. Accountability: in account growth and contribution to successful new business pitches Why This Role Matters 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. SALARY & BENEFITS UK: £55K £60K annual base salary + contract benefits. Initial 6 month contract, with strong potential to extend or transition into a permanent role, subject to performance and business requirements Paid flexible time off Hussle health & fitness monthly pass EXPERIENCE & SKILLS YOU HAVE Paid Social Media: Deep expertise in managing complex, high budget campaigns across Meta, TikTok, and Reddit.

Entertainment/Streaming Industry: Proven track record driving paid strategies for streaming or entertainment brands, with measurable ROI and demonstrable impact on viewership, engagement, and revenue. Understand the SVOD, AVOD, TVOD and FAST landscape deeply enough to challenge briefs, not just execute them. Reporting & Analytics: Excellent at analysing complex data sets, building reports, and crafting data narratives. Baseline knowledge of GTM, Looker Studio, Sheets/Excel, and GA4. Turn performance data into clear, actionable decisions that move the needle on campaign outcomes. AI Fluency: An early adopter who actively leverages emerging tools and builds AI workflows to automate reporting, creative versioning, and audience bidding. Identify efficiency gains and implement them before anyone asks. YOU ARE A RELATIONSHIP ARCHITECT: Forge genuine, lasting client partnerships. Lead with social confidence and warmth - clients respect your expertise and trust you as a strategic extension of their team. Keep them ahead of the curve navigating AVOD, SVOD, and FAST. An INTRAPRENEURIAL DRIVER: Natural ownership of results and a hunter's eye for growth. Think in medium term strategies, take calculated risks with self confidence, and move forward without micro management. A DECISIVE NAVIGATOR: Thrive in ambiguity. Take data backed risks to deliver exceptional CX and move the needle. Own outcomes fully, course correct proactively, and be a dependable anchor for Digital and Customer Success teams. An ELOQUENT COLLABORATOR: Flawless communication skills. Authoritative with stakeholders yet approachable with teammates, translating complex media jargon into clear, persuasive narratives. An ANALYTICAL PROBLEM SOLVER: Assimilate data naturally. Identify patterns, deconstruct complex challenges, and present tiered solutions that address immediate needs while anticipating second and third order impacts. Bonus Experience International Marketing: Experience scaling campaigns across global markets and navigating local cultural nuances. Search Engine Marketing: Experience managing Google Ads campaigns. Do NOT Apply If: You need consensus or sign off before making account decisions. Autonomy makes you uncomfortable rather than energised. You're transactional with the brands and partners you work with. You see account management as reporting and delivery rather than strategic partnership and relationship building. You wait for direction rather than proactively identifying risks, opportunities, and growth plays across your portfolio. You need a fully defined playbook to execute. Ambiguity stalls you rather than sharpening your focus. You struggle to present data clearly or make a compelling case for strategic decisions to senior stakeholders. You're not genuinely excited about AI and automation as a competitive advantage for your clients. You think consistently good is acceptable when exceptional is within reach. Equal Opportunity Employer Wordbank is an equal opportunity employer committed to building a diverse, inclusive team. We welcome all qualified candidates regardless of race, colour, age, religion, gender identity, sexual orientation, disability status, or any other protected characteristic.
