AdVictory

About Us:
AdVictory is an award-winning D.C.-based digital advertising technology and services firm specializing in political campaigns, advocacy organizations, and political action committees. Since 2015, we’ve helped right-of-center clients plan, launch, optimize, and measure high-impact digital advertising programs that drive meaningful results.

About the Role:
We’re looking for an Associate Paid Media Manager to support the execution and optimization of digital advertising campaigns across social, search, and programmatic platforms.

This is a strong fit for an early-career paid media professional who is detail-oriented, analytical, and excited to be a part of the fast-paced world of politics. You’ll work closely with senior media team members to help build, launch, monitor, and report on campaigns while developing hands-on experience across platforms, audiences, creative trafficking, pacing, and performance analysis. There are a number of growth opportunities for a self-starter with a pronounced work ethic and considerable curiosity.

What You’ll Do:
● Assist with campaign setup, launch, trafficking, and day-to-day maintenance across social, search, and programmatic platforms
● Monitor campaign pacing and performance, flagging issues and opportunities for optimization
● Implement optimizations under the guidance of senior media team members
● Pull platform performance reports and help translate data into clear insights for external partners
● Support the development of media plans, audience targeting recommendations, and platform-level execution strategies
● Coordinate ad creative assets, copy updates, tracking links, and trafficking requirements
● Assist with tagging, conversion tracking, QA, and campaign launch checks
● Help build clear, client-ready reporting materials and performance summaries
● Work across multiple concurrent campaigns while keeping details organized and deadlines on track
● Collaborate with internal teams to ensure campaigns are executed accurately, efficiently, and on time

What We’re Looking For:
● 1–3 years of experience in digital marketing, paid media, campaign advertising, or a related field
● Familiarity with platforms such as Google Ads, Meta Ads Manager, and/or programmatic DSPs such as The Trade Desk or DV360
● Strong attention to detail and comfort working with campaign data, spreadsheets, and reporting outputs
● Basic understanding of digital advertising metrics, pacing, optimization, and performance reporting
● Ability to learn quickly, apply feedback, and stay organized in a fast-moving environment
● Strong written and verbal communication skills
● Interest in political media, advocacy, public affairs, or campaign advertising
● Experience with political campaigns, advocacy organizations, or agency environments is a plus
● Familiarity with Google Analytics or similar analytics/reporting tools is a plus

Perks of Working at AdVictory:
● Flexible, open PTO policy
● Comprehensive health benefits, including medical, dental, and vision coverage
● Commuter benefits and travel reimbursement, including rideshares for late work nights
● Hands-on training in political digital advertising, campaign strategy, and media execution
● Opportunity to grow quickly while working on high-profile, fast-moving political and advocacy
campaigns
● Salary: $70,000 - $100,000 base
