Bus/Financial - Advertising / Public Relations / Ad agency | | French term or phrase: acheteur d'art | "xxx est acheteuse d’art dans une grande agence publicitaire."
The term that comes to mind is 'picture buyer', but this person is responsible for finding and licensing stills, video and general multimedia -- what's the right (pref. UK) term these days? |

Asker: mm, doesn't a media buyer mostly buy slots in published/broadcast media, i.e. the "output" side, disseminating finished ads? this role, as described, is to do with the "input" side, researching and purchasing the components which go into the ads.
