Do I need to have global or multi-market media strategy or planning experience to work on Kellanova?

This would be ideal, but it’s not essential. Some of our team have got multi-market experience, others don’t.

You will need to be prepared to develop multi-market strategies though and will need to consider the needs of different markets and be prepared to develop tiered strategies and approaches.

UK is the lead market on most Kellanova brands.

Similarly, FMCG experience is ideal, but not essential.

What else do I need to know?

The Co-op is based in Manchester and you would be expected to travel to their offices once or twice a month.

Carat’s Kellanova Europe team comprises 3 Strategy Leads, 3 Comms Planning Leads and 3 Market Planning Leads. Kellanova is a centralised media account with its own in house media team.

Kellanova is based in Dublin with new offices next to Dublin airport. Most client contact is by Teams, but you should be prepared to fly to Dublin for client meetings in the future.

You need to be enthusiastic (or at least curious) about developments in digital media and gaming. _We are looking for a brief maker, not just a brief taker_
