Viral Ad Network

I’m leaving and we’re hiring.

So what has it been like to work as campaign manager for VAN?

* You will work with some truly intelligent, witty and welcoming people. I have been taught a lot, made to laugh and and kept on my toes.
* The role has clear structure and you have the satisfaction running seeding campaigns from start to finish. You will be involved in sales, agreements, client handling, media buying and final reports.
* You will work with some incredibly popular brands and some high profile agencies.
* You will be kept up-to-date with all the latest funny and fascinating virals.
* You get a sexy MacBook you can take home in the evenings and weekends. Sweet.

What do you need to enjoy being a campaign manager?
* An understanding and love for Twitter, LinkedIn, blogging, Google Analytics etc. If you don’t have this now, you soon will.
* Good verbal and written communication
* Ability to manage time.
* A drive to hit target.

I have loved working for VAN, I am not entirely sure the realisation that I am leaving next month has actually sunken in yet to be honest. I have been part of the VAN team for a year now and Team Rubber for nearly five, and I can truthfully say I have loved it. I will be taking away some fantastic skills, knowledge and happy memories. Fortunately though, I am only moving around the corner so the guys at Rubber Towers won’t be getting away from me that easily.

The Viral Ad Network is recruiting a:

Publisher Recruitment Hero

This job is being filled with the help of the UWE Graduate Internships Scheme. So before your lovely eyes read any further you need to answer yes to this question: did you graduate in the last 2 years?

If you answered yes, go for it, read away. If you answered no, have a look anyway because even though you’ll not be eligible for this role you may know somebody who is

You’ve spent some time studying and have become really good at or passionate about or engaged with a specialist skill.  It might be that you’re:
- Highly numerate and analytical
- Great at selling stuff, love talking to people
- Methodical, organised, rigorous

How about getting paid to apply your skill(s) working for an interesting, creative, smart, well-run media company that will improve you as a professional without requiring you to wear a suit?

Tasks will be based around the following areas of responsibility:
- Researching and recruiting publishers and bloggers from key verticals to sign up to the Viral Ad Network
- Categorising publisher inventory to aid campaign planning and pitching processes
- Expanding VAN’s profile across key social media platforms – tweet, blog, get involved…
- Maintain and grow VAN’s publisher community.
- Ensuring VAN publisher inventory meets campaign targets

What you’re like
You’re probably not well-rounded (because it’s hard to be exceptional at everything).  However, no matter how remarkable your talent, you will definitely need:
- A good degree.  Everybody here has proven themselves academically or in the workplace.  Being a graduate, you haven’t had a proper job yet so you’ll need the degree.
- A genuine desire to get stuck into the world of work, do something, make good stuff, take responsibility.
- A passion for all things digital and social. You should already be active on social media spaces, and writing a blog would be a bonus!
- An exceptional talent. We’ve got a great team in place but we’re always on the lookout for more match-winners.
