Company Description

At Spark Foundry we bring HEAT to brands, Higher Engagement, Affinity and Transaction. Engagement with consumers, customers and stakeholders, affinity with brands, and transactions, that materially impact our client’s businesses.

Diverse thinkers with diverse thinking—what we call Allsorts—are essential to tackle challenges through the lens of different disciplines and perspectives. To succeed at Spark, you must thrive on the belief that great ideas are only great if they work. It’s not enough to be new, cool, or interesting; our solutions must drive business results. You need to embrace both the art and the evidence—right and left brain, imagination and activation, insight and technology in the pursuit of big ideas that are forensically measured. If you are motivated by these values, we welcome you to apply to become a Sparkie.

Overview

We’re looking for a Client Manager to join our Sydney team, working exclusively on a leading FMCG and consumer health client patch that includes some of Australia’s most trusted brands.

 

This role sits at the heart of our client service and planning team and offers the opportunity to work across a diverse channel mix spanning digital, TV, BVOD, social, OOH, emerging formats and more. You’ll play a key role in shaping media plans, managing campaigns end‑to‑end and partnering closely with clients and cross‑functional specialists to ensure every campaign delivers impact - creatively and commercially.

 

You’ll be immersed in a fast‑paced, highly accountable environment where strong media thinking goes hand‑in‑hand with rigorous financial discipline. Being comfortable with numbers is critical in this role — you’ll be trusted to manage budgets, forecasts, reporting and campaign accuracy, ensuring everything is running exactly as planned. Attention to detail isn’t just valued here - it’s essential.

 

This is a role that offers real variety, balancing big‑picture thinking with hands‑on delivery, and one where your judgement, organisation and precision genuinely make a difference. You’ll have ownership, visibility and the opportunity to influence outcomes across a high‑profile client portfolio.

 

Just as importantly, you’ll join a warm, collaborative and supportive team who value shared success, clear communication and personal growth. You’ll be trusted to take ownership, supported to stretch your skills, and encouraged to build a long‑term career within Spark Foundry and the wider Publicis Groupe ANZ network.

 

If you enjoy responsibility, thrive in fast‑moving environments, take pride in getting the details right, and want to work on brands that genuinely impact people’s everyday lives, this is a role where you can do your best work and keep growing while you do it.

 

What key accountabilities does this role have?

 

• Be the go‑to, trusted contact for clients, internal teams and stakeholders — responsive, organised and always one step ahead
• Work hand‑in‑hand with the Client team and cross‑functional specialists to deliver seamless, high‑quality client service
• Lead integrated media planning and campaign delivery across all channels, collaborating closely within the agency village
• Own campaigns end‑to‑end - from brief and planning through to implementation, optimisation and reporting
• Manage timelines, deliverables and budgets with confidence - you’re a numbers whiz with excellent attention to detail and take pride in accuracy
• Partner with strategy, digital, performance, investment and activation teams to deliver best‑in‑class outcomes
• Ensure every campaign is live, on‑air and running exactly as it should across platforms
• Support senior client leads with WIPs, presentations and strategic conversations, bringing clarity and structure to every interaction
• Bring performance to life by translating data into clear insights and recommendations clients can genuinely act on
• Spot opportunities to test, learn and innovate across channels, formats and approaches
• Proactively flag risks, improvements and smarter ways of working — you don’t wait for problems to land
• Take ownership of your own development, leaning into feedback and learning opportunities as you grow your career

 

What are the key skills and requirements for this role?

 

• 3+ years’ experience in media planning, client management or account service, ideally within an agency environment
• Strong understanding of integrated media, with exposure across digital, TV, BVOD, social, OOH and emerging channels
• Some exposure working on FMCG, consumer health or pharma brands (highly regarded, but not essential)
• Highly numerate with a proven track record of accuracy — confident managing budgets, forecasts, reconciliations, POs and financial reporting
• Advanced capability in Excel and comfort working with planning, reporting and media tools
• Ability to manage multiple campaigns and priorities while maintaining exceptional attention to detail
• Confident communicator with the ability to build trusted relationships with clients and internal stakeholders
• Comfortable translating performance data into clear insights, learnings and recommendations
• Strong organisational skills, bringing structure, clarity and accountability to your work
• Curious, collaborative and eager to learn, with a genuine interest in media, innovation and effectiveness
• A client‑first mindset, with clear, professional communication skills
• A collaborative approach and enjoyment working with cross‑functional specialists
• Excellent analytical skills with the ability to present concise, actionable insights
• Ability to independently manage multiple campaigns and competing priorities
• Solid understanding of the Australian media landscape
