Description
Company Description
With a history that dates back over 80 years, Starcom is a global communications planning and media leader. We are an agency still grounded in our founding principle that people are at the centre of all we do. Each day, we apply this belief to harness the transformative power of data and technology to inspire and move people and business forward. With more than 7,000 employees in over 100 offices around the world, we are the flagship Publicis Media agency that uses our ‘Power of One’ business model, with teams that span multiple disciplines across clients such as Aldi, P&G, P&O Ferries, Primark, Samsung, Stellantis, and Visa.
We place a huge focus on our People and have driven flagship D&I and L&D programmes within Publicis Media; our goal is to help every individual reach their fullest potential and we encourage everyone to make “Brave Plays” in how they approach their work and their own career development. As a result, we have an exceptionally energised and committed talent base, all of us proud of our welcoming and supportive culture, as evidenced by our recognition as one of Campaign’s Best Places to Work for three years in a row (2021, 2022 and 2023) and most excitingly, Media Week's Agency of the Year 2023!
Overview
At Starcom, we believe analytics doesn’t just measure performance — it moves people, grows brands and transforms businesses. We’re looking for an Analytics Director to lead that charge.
This is a high-impact leadership role where you’ll head up a team of talented analysts embedded directly on client accounts, while also shaping and evolving our agency-wide analytics proposition. You’ll partner with some of the world’s biggest advertisers on their transformation journeys, helping future-proof their businesses and proving that data-driven strategies deliver real growth.
If you’re passionate about turning complex data into clear, actionable insight — and inspiring teams and clients to act on it — this is a unique opportunity to make your mark.
