International Investment Executive

The newly rebranded Investment & Accountability team sits as a key pillar within Publicis Media Exchange (PMX) and overall Commercial structure. We are growing with an exciting shift in both mission and culture.

The team’s holistic approach to Investment & Accountability feeds into key workstreams across the business: from new business tenders (orchestrating the value & trading proposals for potential new clients), to negotiating contracts, managing pricing guarantees and relationships with auditors. We are also focused on developing tools and new ways of measuring value, while also being fully integrated with the range of PMX offerings.

This is a truly Global remit, and we are very closely connected with our regional hubs across EMEA, APAC, LATAM & North America. From time to time, there will be opportunities for international travel, either to visit clients, our local offices or attend conferences.

Publicis Media offers general and bespoke training across a wide range of subjects. We encourage members of the team to actively participate so we can develop our personal and professional skills.

The Head Office in White City is a modern and invigorating place to work with a wide range of benefits to staff such as flexible working hours, subsidised canteen, local business discounts, mental and physical health programs, and extensive social activities.

The team is recruiting for an International Investment Executive to join them at the London Headquarters.
