About Mindshare: A Leading WPP Media Brand

Mindshare delivers Good Growth for its clients. As “Growth Architects," we drive growth that benefits all stakeholders — better for people, planet, and business — by using media with intention. This approach creates more meaningful connections with consumers, increases consumer trust in the brand, and delivers better outcomes for all stakeholders.

The Role

Location: Sydney

We have found a great balance of embracing flexible working whilst also maintaining in-office collaboration with most teams meeting in the office 3 days per week.

• Drive retail search success: Take charge of retail search activation for iconic Unilever brands (like Rexona, Dove, and Omo), owning campaign pacing, optimisation plans, and insightful reporting.
• Master end-to-end execution: Support the flawless delivery of retail media campaigns, from crafting media plans and booking retailer assets to running post-campaign analysis (PCAs).
• Command top-tier platforms: Get hands-on and master key retail search platforms (including CitrusAd, Cartology Ads Manager, Pacvue, and Criteo) across major networks like Coles, Woolworths, and Chemist Warehouse.
• Collaborate and guide: Work daily with a brilliant offshore team, providing clear briefs, guidance, and quality checks to ensure search optimisations hit the mark.
• Accelerate your growth: Dedicate time to continuous up-skilling and self-learning through industry accreditations, keeping you at the absolute forefront of commerce and retail media trends.

Ideal Skills and Experience

This opportunity is tailor-made for a driven, detail-oriented digital specialist who loves collaborating across teams, embraces change, and is eager to fast-track their career in the exciting, fast-paced world of commerce. We’re also looking for;

• Digital foundations: Experience in Digital Implementation & Activation (a high-performing Coordinator or existing Exec). If you have a background in Google, Programmatic, or Social, you already have the perfect transferrable skills!
• Exceptional attention to detail: Stellar project management skills with a keen eye for accuracy across all financial, booking, and compliance workflows.
• Eagerness to learn: A driven, go-getter mentality with a genuine appetite to master new and emerging commerce channels, rather than sticking to the same old silos.
• Retail media curiosity: While prior knowledge of Coles and Woolworths retail media is a huge plus, an eagerness to dive in (along with any knowledge of the Amazon ecosystem) is highly valued.
• A highly collaborative spirit: An open-minded, adaptable team player who loves working with a diverse, large team and brings a positive, can-do attitude to the desk every day.
