The Business Director will sit within our Discovery team, which own and nurtures key client relationships, work closely with media agency partners to unlock growth opportunities and design and develop brilliant cultural marketing solutions for clients.

We’re looking for someone who is as comfortable building new relationships with clients and agency partners as they are leading complex projects from conception to conversion, challenging the work and ensuring that we put the best creative solutions forward to clients. The successful candidate will manage a team of Senior Account Directors, work closely with all other DRUM functions including creative, strategy, production, partnerships & project delivery, and play a pivotal role in driving new business initiatives. Responsibilities will also include commercial reporting and revenue forecasting, and you’ll be part of a newly created Extended Leadership Team driving agency growth.

About the Agency:

DRUM are Omnicom Media Group’s branded content, partnerships and entertainment agency that helps ambitious brands create their own cultural signals; things with real value for people that cut through the clutter.

Headquartered in London with offices in locations across Europe, Asia-Pacific, LATAM, DRUM create content and partnerships that join the dots between media, entertainment, creativity, and culture to enable brands to create meaningful connections with their audiences.

From producing original entertainment formats for brands (or commissions for broadcasters via our Studios division) to social content innovation or partnerships with media owners and talent, DRUM provide clients with creative, production and project management capabilities to help them create impact in the spaces that ads can’t.

We hire cultural mavens who soak up the world outside of the office and bring it into their work and have diverse skills and backgrounds from the worlds of advertising, brands, TV, music, rights holders and sponsorship.

As a result, DRUM is one of the most awarded and successful content agencies in the business, having been awarded Content Agency of the Year three times in the last six years, multiple Cannes Lions - including x2 awards in Entertainment & Entertainment For Music in 2021 and in 2022 our first International Emmy for Best Documentary.
