FlexPoint Media is seeking a Digital Placement Coordinator to take ownership of paid media execution across our top-tier political and advocacy client base.

The perfect candidate is curious, organized, and energized by fast-moving, high-stakes work with a strong desire to grow professionally and build top-level skills in terms of media placement.

• Building, trafficking, and QA’ing digital ad campaigns end-to-end across paid search, paid social, display, video, and programmatic ads

• Drafting performance reports and client-ready recaps that turn data into clear recommendations
• Supporting audience research and targeting strategy across paid social, display, video, and programmatic ads
• Managing relationships with platform reps, ad vendors, and programmatic partners
• Ensuring all campaign details are 100% error-free

Requirements

• Two to four years of hands-on digital ad placement experience
• Working proficiency in at least one of the following: Google Ads, Meta (Facebook) Ads Manager, X Ads, or a programmatic DSP such as The Trade Desk or Google DV360
• Strong analytical instincts and comfort working in spreadsheets and platform reporting tools
• Meticulous attention to detail and the ability to manage multiple campaigns under tight deadlines
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills
• Familiarity with ad tech fundamentals: pixel implementation, conversion tracking, UTMs, and insertion order / billing workflows
• Prior experience with political, advocacy, or public affairs campaigns is a plus
• Familiarity with additional platforms beyond your primary expertise (e.g., CTV/OTT DSPs, TikTok Ads, LinkedIn Campaign Manager) is a plus
