At Running Total Media we are committed to diversity & inclusion and providing equal opportunities for everyone. We are dedicated to ensuring our processes are free from any form of discrimination or bias, right from the application process to life as part of our team.
The Agency:
Running Total Media is a very successful and fast-growing Manchester city centre based media planning & buying agency, and part of the Total Media Group. We work with some of the highest profile advertisers in the UK, and a key aspect of our offering to clients is our ability to evaluate and forecast the performance of their advertising campaigns, across the full spectrum of media – TV, digital, radio, out-of-home, and so forth.
The Team:
There are 26 friendly faces in our Manchester office, and we’re a tight-knit and mutually supportive team. We work closely across a range of different clients in multiple business sectors, so no day is ever the same, and learning opportunities are constant and plentiful. With most of us local to the City Centre, we have a brilliant ‘Back to Office’ culture and you’ll find us all working together in person most days.

Either way, we’d like to hear from you if you’re industrious, curious, flexible, and numerate. You’ll play a vital part in the agency’s output, and in due course, will help us grow our offering and revenue, improve processes and develop new products and insight.
Key Responsibilities:
- Planning & buying advertising campaigns across Broadcast, Radio, Outdoor and some YouTube.
- Negotiating with sales representatives from said media channels (Media Owners) to secure great outcomes for clients.
- Active management of campaigns to ensure best possible results and performance.
- Detailed analysis of campaign performance & high level of numeracy.
- Interacting with clients to help develop their plans & advertising campaigns.
- Representing Running Total in Media Owner meetings and events.
- Liaising with creative & PR agencies.
- Studying for relevant industry-recognised qualifications.
- Contributing to and participating in the culture of the wider Media Investment team, of which you would be a critical part of.
The Benefits:
- Pension: Once you’ve been with us for 3 months you’ll be enrolled into our pension scheme . We’ll match your contributions up to 5%.
- Private Medical Insurance, healthcare and life assurance: When you’ve passed your probation, you have the opportunity to use our private medical insurance, healthcare and life assurance schemes.
- Holiday entitlement: Your holiday entitlement will be set out in your contract, and once you’ve worked with us for over 12 months, you’ll also get a day off for your birthday.
- Charity/Volunteering entitlement: We think people who volunteer their time for charitable causes deserve a little recognition. We give staff a “charity day” off for charitable work.
- IPA Qualification Support: The Institute of Practitioners in Advertising run various qualifications throughout the year, both online and offline. We support our members of staff in obtaining these qualifications in every way we can.
Plus...
- Fantastic training programme which includes immersion sessions at the media channel offices based in Manchester.
- Subsidised social activities (including the occasional () office drinks on a Friday).
- A Summer trip away each year.
- Brilliant Summer and Christmas parties.
- Summer Friday’s early finish.
