Senior Media Manager – Offline (f/m/x)

About the Position

We are looking for a Senior Media Manager – Offline (f/m/x) who knows how to turn offline media investment into measurable business results.

This is a hands-on role. You will own your markets end to end, run campaigns yourself, stay close to performance every day and continuously challenge how we invest. Your seniority shows in the quality of your judgement: we expect you to improve the plan, not simply execute it.

Deep expertise in either the German or Spanish media market is a must. You will report directly to our Team Lead Media.

Responsibilities

• Own your markets end to end - plan, book, steer and evaluate offline campaigns across TV, radio, OOH, cinema, print and sponsorships, staying close to delivery and performance every day
• Make every Euro work - deliver against volume and CPL targets, understand what is driving performance and take fast action when results move off plan
• Build and challenge media plans - define channel mix and pressure, benchmark and negotiate opportunities to build data-backed investment cases for where we should invest more - or pull back
• Know what moved and why - go beyond reporting performance, establish cause and effect and turn changes in pressure, schedules, placements or market conditions into clear insights and actions
• Own agencies and media partners - challenge their output, lead market-level commercial discussions, verify delivery and push for better conditions, make-goods and new opportunities
• Raise the bar - improve analytical frameworks and playbooks, automate repetitive work with AI and share your expertise to make the wider team better

Requirements

• Media Management: 5+ years of hands-on experience across TV, radio, OOH and other offline channels
• Offline Media Expertise: Deep local media-market expertise in either Germany or Spain
• Performance Marketing: Connect media investment to volume, CPL and measurable business impact
• Analytical Thinking: Dig into the data, understand why it happened and know what to do next
• Commercial Sharpness: Focus on performance, not activity
• Problem Solving: Stay close to campaigns, take ownership, move fast and solve problems yourself

Nice to Have

• Data Analysis
• Commercial Sharpness
• Analytical Thinking
• Problem Solving

We Offer

• Real ownership - complex markets, meaningful media investment and campaign performance sit directly in your hands
• A seat at the table - we expect you to challenge plans, build investment cases and influence where we put the next Euro
• Work in a fast-moving, international environment with colleagues from 90+ nationalities
• Dedicated education budget for courses, conferences and professional development
• Flexible working hours, 30 days of vacation and a modern office just steps from Munich’s Englischer Garten - combining a central location with one of the city’s best spots right outside the door
• Employee discounts across brands including Flaconi, Bosch, Apple and Sky, plus special offers on used cars
