ABOUT THE ROLE We are currently looking for a Paid Social Manager to join our growing media team. This person will own the day-to-day management, optimization, and reporting of paid social campaigns while beginning to connect workstreams to broader project and client goals.

YOUR DAY TO DAY Own the day-to-day execution of paid social campaigns across platforms including LinkedIn, Meta, TikTok, Snapchat, Pinterest, and Reddit, supporting B2B and B2C objectives such as brand building, site traffic, lead generation, and sales.

Lead clear, productive conversations with clients and deliver compelling inputs to both internal and client discussions. Prioritize tasks, manage assigned workstreams, and raise scope or timing challenges to leadership as needed. Move work forward confidently even when navigating ambiguity. Apply AI tools throughout your workflow to improve the quality of insights and deliverables. Use AI to enhance structure, speed, and clarity across team workstreams. Collaborate across Media and Prophet — including paid search, programmatic, and analytics teams. Proactively seek input and feedback from colleagues and leadership. Support and mentor junior team members through teaching and feedback. Start to become a go-to resource on your assigned accounts. Stay current with industry trends and platform updates. Factor external and industry dynamics into your work. Bring a growing strategic POV that connects paid social execution back to client business goals. Support firm development by participating in business development opportunities, recruiting, and internal initiatives (ERGs, Prophet Impact, etc.) as bandwidth allows.
