  Mediahub Worldwide

  Aug 2022 - now

  Mediahub is a growing and multi award winning global media entity that is built for challenger brands. Challenger brands are companies disrupting their category and as a result are looking for a media company that is challenging the principles of media.New Balance are one of the world's major sports footwear and apparel brands, based in Boston USA. New Balance differentiate their products from others with its technical features as well as having a strong brand presence within the lifestyle sector.At Mediahub, I am leading the media planning for New Balance across Germany, Netherlands and Scandinavia (as well previously across France). This global role has seen my expertise move outside of the UK media space, and increased my full comms management experience. At Mediahub, I am leading the planning in the EMEA markets at a local level, therefore I am responsible for the planning and buying OOH, digital, social and video activity, rather than a coordination focussed role. I am managing a team of 5, with a broader remit of 7 of varying knowledge levels. My main responsibilities include budget management, forecasting, client development, team development, test and learn work streams, emerging technology and opportunities within the markets alongside overseeing all media plans for the markets that sit in my team. Along with this, due to my vast digital experience, I am working on upskilling the team in the digital landscape, from best practise when planning and buying, to the use and fundamentals of prorgrammatic to educating the clients on how digital is a key aspect of media plans.
