ABOUT US_
At Talon, our purpose is to be the independent agency of choice providing a pioneering global platform for brands to connect with audiences in the outside world. We want to reimagine the industry to deliver greater value for our clients whilst inspiring people and caring for our planet. We’re passionate about OOH and are on a mission to drive the growth of this sector within the media industry – changing perceptions of it as a legacy medium to one that is highly effective, creative, sustainable, and measurable for our clients.
In our first 10 years, our desire to offer intelligent, creative, technology-led OOH solutions and a full-service OOH offering saw us grow into a team of over 350 people located in key cities across the globe. In that time, we have been awarded for our approach to our people, our clients and our industry and want to continue and expand upon these successes.
THE ROLE_
As an International Client Manager, you are supporting your Account Director on an agency portfolio, and handling all day to day campaigns for your clients. As a manager, you are expected to build and maintain good relationship with your client agencies and give them personalised attention to ensure consistent organic growth.
You will be leading your own campaigns, planning and buying, with the help of our strategy and insight team to build your strategy, and the support of the wider team to make it go live.
During the planning stage, you will recommend the best OOH sites which fit the budget and brief of each client. Here, you act as an intermediator between agencies and media owners. Buying involves working towards a financial proposal which fits both the agency and the vendor and negotiating costs making sure you can provide the best service to our clients. Activation relates to campaign management, making sure everything runs smoothly and that the campaign is ready to go live. You will have the support of the Activation team on this part.
Finally, once the campaign has gone live, you will prepare a post campaigns analysis which summarize the campaign brief, strategy and results using audience impressions which you will present to your client agency, in hope to invite to repeat business and increase revenue growth.
