This role sits at the intersection of client service and media strategy: you'll translate client goals into cross-screen plans, keep campaigns on track from planning through delivery, and serve as a trusted, day-to-day point of contact.

The pace is quick and the details matter. You'll be managing multiple accounts and deadlines at once, so strong organization and follow-through are essential.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

• Develop and manage media strategies and plans spanning linear TV and streaming/OTT/CTV for local and national client accounts.
• Serve as the primary day-to-day contact for assigned accounts, building strong, long-term client relationships grounded in trust and responsiveness.
• Translate client objectives and budgets into actionable media plans, partnering with planning/buying teams as well as vendors.
• Monitor campaign performance and pacing, proactively identifying opportunities to optimize and troubleshoot issues before they become problems.
• Prepare and deliver clear, accurate campaign reporting, recaps, and strategic recommendations to clients.
• Coordinate closely with internal planning, buying, and analytics teams to ensure flawless campaign execution and delivery.
• Manage multiple accounts and deadlines simultaneously in a fast-paced, detail-driven environment.
• Stay current on TV and streaming media trends, inventory, and audience data to inform smarter client strategy.

WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR

• Experience planning and/or buying TV and/or streaming media is required.
• A detail-oriented mindset with the organizational skills to manage multiple accounts, timelines, and deliverables accurately and on schedule.
• Comfort operating in a fast-paced environment with shifting priorities and tight deadlines.
• Strong client relationship management skills, with the ability to communicate strategy clearly to clients, internal teams, and vendors alike.
• Analytical skills to interpret campaign and audience data and turn it into actionable recommendations.
• A collaborative, team-first approach and a genuine interest in media strategy and the evolving TV/streaming landscape.

REQUIRED EXPERIENCE

• Previous experience in media, advertising, broadcast/cable, streaming/OTT, or media operations.
• Familiarity with Strata, Nielsen, FreeWheel, or similar media platforms.
• Experience with campaign execution, reporting, reconciliation, or pacing.
• Strong Microsoft Office skills, particularly Excel.

WHY CTV MEDIA

Join a team with a 46-year track record of media expertise and a forward-looking approach to data-driven video advertising.

You’ll work alongside strategists and buyers who are genuinely passionate about creating media solutions that deliver measurable ROI, with the tools and vendor relationships to back it up.
