Global media agency network optimizing campaigns across digital channels
WPP Media operates a large, geographically distributed agency with 1,400+ open roles focused heavily on marketing (954 positions) and data (119 positions) — typical of a media-buying operation scaling campaign execution. The tech stack reveals a dual-platform model: Google (DV360, GA360, Search Ads 360) and Meta dominate, supplemented by Snowflake and Python for analytics, while active adoption of AWS and Amazon Marketing Cloud suggests a shift toward consolidated, cloud-based reporting infrastructure to address a stated pain point around data accuracy.
