About Us
Associated Advertising & Rabbit Digital Branding Solutions is a full-service integrated communications agency with over 8 decades of experience in building brands and delivering impactful campaigns across advertising, digital and media.
Role Overview
We are looking for a digital-first integrated advertising qualified to lead client relationships, drive brand strategy and lead the agency’s digital business and team.
The ideal candidate will bring strong digital expertise, substantial mainline advertising experience and a sound understanding of brand building. The role requires someone who can move seamlessly between brand strategy, integrated communication and digital execution, and is equally comfortable discussing business and marketing challenges with senior clients as leading multidisciplinary teams.
This is not a specialist digital marketing role. We are looking for a strategic, client-facing agency leader who understands digital deeply but can also lead integrated communication across mainline and digital platforms.
Key Responsibilities
- Lead key client relationships, acting as a strategic partner to senior marketing and business stakeholders.
- Develop brand strategies, communication strategies and go-to-market strategies based on business and consumer understanding.
- Lead the integration of mainline and digital communication to build cohesive, effective brand solutions.
- Lead, mentor and develop the digital team across Social Media, E-commerce, Performance Marketing and SEO.
- Drive greater efficiency, collaboration, accountability and strategic thinking within the digital team.
- Work closely with creative, strategy, servicing, media and digital teams to deliver integrated brand solutions.
- Proactively identify opportunities to grow existing accounts,
deepen relationships and generate new business.
- Bring a solid commercial and business orientation to client management and agency growth.
- Mentor the servicing and digital teams and raise the overall quality of strategic thinking, client servicing and delivery.
- Ideal Candidate
- 10–15 years of experience in an advertising agency, with a digital-first career and strong mainline advertising experience.
- Has worked on brands and integrated communication, rather than being primarily a channel or platform specialist.
- Strong understanding of brand strategy, consumer behaviour, creative communication and go-to-market thinking.
- Deep understanding of the digital ecosystem, including Social Media, E-commerce, Performance Marketing and SEO, without being a specialist limited to any one of these disciplines.
- Proven ability to lead and mentor multidisciplinary teams and improve their effectiveness and efficiency.
- Strong client leadership skills with the ability to engage CMOs, CXOs and senior business stakeholders.
- Demonstrated ability to grow existing businesses and actively pursue new business opportunities.
- Strong strategic, communication and presentation skills, with the ability to connect business objectives, brand thinking and digital opportunity.
- What We Are Looking For A digital-first agency leader who understands brands, not just platforms. Someone who can think strategy, lead people, manage clients, integrate mainline and digital communication, grow business and drive the agency forward.
