Has anyone as a US citizen (without a dual citizenship) successfully gotten a role at a media agency in a different country, specifically in a media buying (or similar) role? If yes, what was the process to do this?

Ask your HR rep, they will have the details. Will be easier to transfer than find a new job to sponsor you.

I’ve transferred within Groupm, been recruited in US for job in Canada and found another agency in Canada to sponsor my work permit. Transferring is easiest but it took years to happen.
