Responsibilities:

  • Lead and own day-to-day project delivery across multiple performance marketing projects spanning media planning & strategy, social advertising, programmatic, media and creative testing

  • Strong communicator who builds trust with clients and motivates teams internally
  • Organized, proactive, and calm under pressure - juggling timelines and deliverables without losing sight of the big picture
  • Ability to work independently and in a team environment
