• Assist in creative development through the post‑production process of ad campaigns, with an eye on metrics and how we are measuring success.
• Collaborate with a diverse team of strategists, planners, creatives, and producers to conceptualize innovative and memorable campaigns that move the needle.
• Apply keen analytical skills to monitor and evaluate campaign performance, and continually optimize the agency’s efforts.
• Work with Account Supervisor, Account Director and finance and operations on client reporting, billing, and ongoing process improvements.
• Build up sources of information relevant to your work (for example industry publications, research tools, competitive trackers) to stay plugged into the business and our client’s business.
