Finding a Job in Advertising and Media with Senses 2026

Senses is a Belgium-based staffing agency dedicated to the advertising, marketing, sales, and media production sectors. We connect creative and commercial talent with industry-leading firms. The most important thing to know is that we act as a bridge, meaning your profile must clearly highlight your specific industry experience to stand out.

Who pays Senses

Paid by the employer, not by you.

Senses earns a fee from the company that hires you, usually a share of your first-year salary or a margin on your contract rate. Their client is that company.

What that means for you

Expect roles that fit their open vacancies before roles that fit your plan. Ask which company a role is for before your CV goes anywhere, and apply direct where you can.

What sectors and roles does Senses focus on?

We specialize exclusively in the creative and commercial ecosystem. Our placements span advertising agencies, marketing departments, sales teams, and media production houses. We focus on roles ranging from account management and creative strategy to media operations and sales development, ensuring our consultants understand the unique technical requirements of your specific craft.

Where you meet

How does the staffing process work for candidates?

The process begins with a review of your portfolio or CV against our current open mandates. If your background aligns with our clients' needs, we conduct an initial screening to discuss your career goals and technical expertise. We then present your profile to relevant hiring managers, manage interview logistics, and facilitate feedback throughout the negotiation phase.

What should I expect during our partnership?

Expect a professional, transparent relationship where communication is focused on active opportunities. We do not charge candidates for our services, as our fees are covered by the hiring companies. While we cannot guarantee a placement for every applicant, we commit to keeping your profile in our active database for relevant future roles.

Your side

How can I get on the Senses radar?

To capture our attention, ensure your CV is tailored to the specific language of the advertising and media sectors. Use industry-standard keywords related to your software proficiency, campaign experience, or sales metrics. Registering directly through our portal with a link to your updated portfolio is the most effective way to ensure our team sees your work.

Is Senses the right fit for my job search?

Senses is an ideal partner if you have a proven track record in marketing, sales, or media production and want to work with established industry players. If your experience lies outside these creative and commercial sectors, or if you are looking for entry-level roles without prior industry exposure, you may find better success with a generalist agency.

Frequently asked questions

Should I apply to a job directly if I am also working with Senses?

It is generally best to coordinate with your Senses consultant first. If we have already submitted your profile to that specific client, applying again can create administrative confusion and may disqualify you from our representation.

What happens to my personal data after I submit my CV?

Your data is stored in our secure candidate management system in compliance with Belgian privacy regulations. We only share your profile with hiring companies after obtaining your explicit permission for each specific role.

How should I follow up if I have not heard back after an interview?

We recommend waiting at least one week before sending a polite follow-up email to your consultant. We strive to provide feedback as soon as the client makes a decision, but delays in the hiring process are common in the media sector.

Can I register with multiple agencies at the same time?

Yes, it is common practice to work with multiple agencies to broaden your reach. However, always keep a clear record of which agency has submitted your profile to which company to avoid duplicate applications.
