Directing core accounts autonomously my role involved the strategy, planning, implementation and reporting for two key players in the Australian aged care sector. Moving into an indie agency allowed for a stronger sense of independence in strategic ideation, also providing valuable experience in new business development.
Following promotion into a new team, this multi-faceted role provided extensive experience across media strategy, planning and implementation. Working across a broad variety of both government and mainstream clients, I tailored campaigns to meet the needs of multiple brands.
Entering the industry as a Media Coordinator shaped my understanding of advertising and exposed my passion for effective communication planning. Assisting Executives and Managers across multiple aspects of the campaign process, I quickly built a solid foundation of industry knowledge.
