Comms Planning Business Director
Comms & Strategic Planning Dublin, Dublin

m/SIX are one of the UK&#**Apply on the website**;s fastest-growing
media planning and buying agencies, having doubled in size in the last
two years to **Apply on the website** people and ?**Apply on the
website**m in billings. Our international network now comprises over
**Apply on the website** offices across 3 continents.

We have a unique proposition and ownership structure, which is
fundamental to how we operate for our clients. We are majority owned
by our partners within The&Partnership, but GroupM?s minority
ownership means that we are able to offer a true ?best of both
worlds? advantage. This means a progressive and entrepreneurial
approach to business and culture, whilst providing full access to
GroupM?s market leading pricing, data and technology assets.

As both The&Partnership and m/SIX we have therefore created new models
and ways of working which are leading the industry in defining the
agency of the future. This means solutions built bespoke for
clients? individual needs, inclusive of all necessary disciplines
and working to one bottom line. Creatives, strategists, analysts,
investment and production teams working together, with data and
technology at the centre. These teams are often implanted directly
within the client marketing teams: in the UK we have fully embedded
teams at News UK, Talk Talk and Toyota/Lexus. The impact of this has
been transformational on our clients? business.

which we operate, and to be the most important place in the careers of
our people.
