About WPP Indonesia   With a population of 260 million, Indonesia is one of the fastest growing and most dynamic markets in the world. Rising consumer disposable income has put Indonesia firmly on the radar for MNCs seeking to invest in emerging markets.   Terrestrial TV still dominates the Indonesian media landscape, accounting for 65% of total ad spend — but digital is entering a period of exponential growth. Around 170 million Indonesians are online, and more than 70% access the internet via mobile. The scale of opportunity to transform this media landscape is unprecedented in the APAC region.   We're looking for entrepreneurial, diligent people to join us on this journey — building impactful solutions for the next era of media.   About the Role   We're looking for a commercially-savvy, entrepreneurial media leader to take ownership of an existing client portfolio — with a clear mandate to grow it. This is not a maintenance role. You'll be accountable for deepening client relationships, expanding scope of work, and converting strong delivery into incremental revenue.   What You'll Own   End-to-end leadership of the existing business portfolio, with a growth target attached   Translating brand priorities into commercially successful cross-platform campaigns   Full-funnel ownership (upper → mid → lower), planned as one brand ecosystem — not siloed activations   Identifying and converting organic growth opportunities within current accounts (scope expansion, new brands, new services)   Driving alignment across planning, media, commerce, advocacy and data   Senior partnership with client stakeholders, including commercial negotiation and renewal   How You'll Work   Lead and integrate teams across:   Brand & Communications Planning   E-commerce Planning   Advocacy / Creator Content   Biddable Media Execution   Data & Reporting   How You'll Work   Lead and integrate teams across:   Brand & Communications Planning   E-commerce Planning   Advocacy / Creator Content   Biddable Media Execution   Data & Reporting   Set a clear operating rhythm:   Weekly WIPs (funnel health & priorities)   Monthly business reviews (commercial + performance)   Quarterly strategic reviews and forward plans   Ensure planning decisions drive execution — not the other way around.   What Success Looks Like   Portfolio revenue and scope growth, year over year   Brands planned and executed as one connected system, not in silos   Fewer fragmented campaigns, stronger reach, clearer storytelling   Tighter planning–execution linkage translating directly into commercial outcomes   Teams operating with clarity, speed and shared accountability   Clients who see you as a growth partner, not a vendor   Who You Are 10–15 years' experience in media, planning, or client leadership roles   Proven track record of growing existing accounts — not just retaining them   Strong understanding of full-funnel media and commerce dynamics   Commercially sharp: comfortable owning revenue targets and negotiating scope/value with senior clients   Structured operator who can run a matrixed team without direct reporting lines   Comfortable in fast-moving, ambiguous environments   Strong written and verbal communication — able to build and defend a commercial narrative with clients and internally   Fluent in English; other languages a plus Why This Role   This is a business leadership role, not a functional planning seat. You'll take a portfolio that already exists and make it bigger — through integration, commercial discipline, and stronger client partnership.   If you're excited by ownership, growth, and turning good delivery into bigger business — we'd like to hear from you.
