  • Work closely with other internal departments to develop cohesive, fully integrated performance media campaigns.
  • Monitor, track, and evaluate cross-channel campaign performance analytics based on critical client metrics and attribution models.
  • Deliver monthly client reports detailing channel performance, actionable insights, and strategic recommendations.
  • Think creatively and develop tools, automation scripts, and tactical frameworks to improve workflow and campaign efficiencies.
  • Actively contribute to business reviews, corporate initiatives, automation projects, process changes, and rollouts as well as new business efforts.
  • Create, or assist in creating, POVs, standard methodologies, channel playbooks, and key process documentation.
  • Oversee and mentor junior team members, guiding their professional development and managing day-to-day tactical execution.
