Arena Media
Arena is a media agency designed exclusively for clients who live in culture – think Gaming, Arts, Film, TV, and Fashion. From Puma to JBL, Bumble, Rémy Cognac, Cointreau, Bethesda to Square Enix, UKTV to Universal Music, and our most recent win, Lionsgate.
We are here to rewrite the rules of entertainment and create meaningful moments in culture.
Do you want to challenge the status quo? Do you think there’s a better way that defies the tired, outdated conventions you see from most of today’s media agencies? Do you have an appetite to do the type of work that gets more shared, more talked about, more noticed? If yes, then we are for you.
A bit about you…
We want people who feel a passion for this industry,
- Who are naturally curious,
- Who live and breathe culture.
We want fresh opinions and ideas. Thinking that challenges the status quo and that leads to innovation.
Our philosophy here is to hire for attitude, train for skill. If you’ve got the qualifications, great. If you’ve got the passion, even better.
If any of this sounds like you. If you want to create solutions that unify advertising, PR, social, experiences, and media. If you want to create cultural impact far greater than the sum of the individual parts, then please get in touch.
Account Manager
As an Account Manager at Arena Media, you are a key operator in the smooth execution of theatrical and home entertainment campaigns across the Lionsgate slate. Working closely with the Account Director, you will be responsible for campaign planning, client servicing, and execution. This role requires balancing precision in delivery with creative ideas, all while navigating fast-paced, ever-evolving projects.
