Within the Argos Client Services team, you’ll be part of an exciting area that is shaping the future of retail media across one of the UK’s most recognised digital and general merchandise retailers. The team works closely with Argos commercial teams, suppliers and wider Nectar360 colleagues to deliver impactful campaigns across on-site, off-site, above-the-line and targeted channels, helping suppliers reach customers in more relevant and effective ways.
