The successful agency will work with dedicated marketing resources in each division to develop and execute media strategies for key international markets. Trinity Global and E3 require largely planned campaigns, while Trinity Business School requires high flexibility and agility to respond quickly to emerging opportunities in the competitive private education landscape.
