We are Merkle B2B, one of the biggest and most successful B2B agencies in the world, and further part of the incredible Merkle and Dentsu parent groups. Since our establishment as a global end-toend, best-in-class B2B agency, we are growing at a rapid and exciting pace. You will be joining a team of over 1,000 B2B specialists globally, acting as agency of record for some of the biggest and most exciting B2B brands in the world where we provide service across our many practice areas, including Media, Creative, Insights and more. But don’t just take our word for it – we’ve recently won The Drum’s Best Large B2B agency award.
At MB2B, we are determined to be the best - and we know that only comes from having the best people on our teams. So, as we progress and develop as a company, you will too. Within our fastgrowing network, there’s plenty of opportunity to develop your skillset through market-leading training schemes, including our proprietary Merkle University courses. You’ll be encouraged to be curious, to share new ideas and to be innovative and bold – we believe great ideas should come from everyone in the team. To that end we’re also actively engaged in ensuring DEI is at the heart of what we think, say and do. We work as part of the many pillars within our global and local DEI group - and strongly encourage all of our teams to be actively involved here too.
In exchange for your contribution to our award-winning company, we make sure you’ll find the right work-life balance - mental wellness is incredibly important to us so we ensure everyone takes advantage of their generous holiday allowance as well as several additional Wellness Days each year - additional days off which are enjoyed by everyone within the Dentsu group. We know right now that the ability to work remotely is as important as the ability to come together f2f as a team and agency, so we have enabled each team to build bespoke charters to identify the rhythm and cadence of when it will add value to be in the office collaborating round a table and when it’s useful to work from where suits you – all with the goal of driving success for our clients, our teams and our agency in the smartest ways possible. We’re really proud of our company values and culture, and we want you to feel fully part of that fantastic community, something we celebrate in our regular company and team socials
The Paid Social Account Executive (AE) role is vital for ensuring the smooth running of all paid social campaign activity and client interaction (calls, meetings etc) on the account. They are responsible for supporting the Paid Social Account Managers, Account Directors and wider team for all internal and external comms and processes. They are here to learn, so use their ambitious and open mind to learn from both those around them and the ample opportunities to take ownership of campaign activation – from ensuring campaigns are launched to match the right media plans, to managing campaign status and optimisation action logs to ensure no deliverables are missed and all deadlines are hit. We know great thinking comes from everywhere in the team, so AEs will be strongly encouraged to fully immerse themselves in the industry, meeting with media partners, networking with other teams around the agency and liaising with their peers on other accounts to learn what great looks like and spot interesting opportunities to solve paid social challenges on your account patch.
The AE will work at pace across a number of simultaneous paid social projects either within one account or more likely across multiple accounts. They will develop their experience of paid social account management as well as starting to understand the wider paid social strategy and planning process across. Further they will work closely with other channel teams, strategists and external agencies to ensure the smooth delivery, activation, reporting and optimisation of campaigns for clients.
Our entry-level roles are accessible for everyone so whether you are a fresh graduate, school leaver or career changer we would love to hear from you.
