Advertising and Media Executive Level 3 Assessment

Level:

3

Age Range:

16+

The broad purpose of the occupation is helping the day to day progress of the whole advertising process, from receiving the brief from the marketing team, including objectives, budget and timescales, through to the measurement of how effective the advertisement has been. They also understand how the component parts are successfully orchestrated, with effective trade-offs being made as the process continues and evolves.

In their daily work, an employee in this occupation interacts with many other people, processes and systems. (For example, the client, third party suppliers, the broad team at the agency.) They help campaigns move forward, coping with inevitable setbacks and changes in direction (some at the last minute), whilst showing collaboration and maintaining relationships with all. Usually they report to an account or media manager.

This standard has optional pathways – Creative or Media.
