The Media Rating Council wrapped up a massive 2025 agenda webinar covering a multitude of new initiatives by noting that it is in market to hire additional talent to help manage it.

In fact, the MRC website just posted a job description for a new vice president-syndicated research audits, which can be accessed here.

Specs include:

• Reviewing audit reports and identifying and interpreting audit findings as they relate to applicable standards compliance criteria to help inform MRC audit conclusions.

• Participating in, and, as directed by MRC’s senior management, leading meetings to review and discuss audit results with MRC member committees.

• Performing appropriate follow up actions on assigned audits, including summarizing audit findings and accreditation outcomes, preparing written communications directed to measurement services, coordinating with CPA auditors engaged by MRC, overseeing measurement services’ remediation processes as necessary, and acting to bring annual accreditation processes to timely conclusions.

• Maintaining ongoing relationships and serving as an initial primary point of contact with services that are engaged in the MRC’s accreditation process.

• Assist in reviewing and approving audit scope, cost and coverage.

Coverage of the 2025 agenda to follow shortly.
