About the Role
Bauer Media Outdoor is one of the UK’s leading Out of Home media owners and infrastructure companies, with more than 33,000 advertising sites in our portfolio. Our talented team of over 600 people work across 14 locations nationwide, creating and delivering some of the most memorable advertising campaigns in the UK. We are committed to building a sustainable business that benefits our public, partners, and advertiser stakeholders through ad-funded social infrastructure, digital innovation, and proactive societal efforts.

As a Trading Executive, you will start your career in OOH media by learning all aspects of the business before taking on client-specific commercial responsibility. Working within our agile, collaborative Trading Team, you will develop detailed systems and product knowledge while handling a wide range of tasks. You will engage with multiple internal stakeholders to deepen your understanding of our business and client needs.

You will quickly progress to managing key out of home specialist relationships, delivering unique client solutions. While much of your initial workload will be reactive, you will be expected to proactively promote Bauer Media’s success by selling enhanced solutions for both short and long-term growth.

Key responsibilities include building and maintaining relationships with aligned Specialists, responding promptly and accurately to briefs, questioning client requirements to prepare precise briefs, and proactively educating and inspiring customers both over the phone and face to face. You will align client needs with Bauer Media Outdoor’s offerings, leveraging data and insight, demonstrate smart negotiation skills using all internal resources, and efficiently use internal systems to manage bookings.

You will build outstanding knowledge of the Bauer Media Outdoor product portfolio, pricing, and packaging, collaborate with internal stakeholders to establish shared sales strategies, understand current availability, and proactively sell more exposed formats. Your goal will be to exceed Specialist targets through selling, upselling, and cross-selling products.
