Job description

You know paid social moves fast, and you like keeping up. You’re curious about new platforms and trends, but you’re just as interested in what the numbers say and how to make a campaign better. You catch the details, see the bigger picture and enjoy working with a team where every day brings something different.

At WTA, you’ll manage paid social campaigns for a group of clients, contribute to weekly and monthly reporting, and join client meetings with your team. We’ll count on you to share what you’re seeing, bring ideas to the table and help turn those ideas into stronger campaigns.

We’re looking for someone who’s ready to jump in and do the work: someone who asks good questions, takes ownership and wants to keep growing. If you like a busy, collaborative environment and the chance to make a real contribution, we’d love to meet you.

RESPONSIBILITIES

• Assist the team to develop strategic integrated media plans.
• Align client objectives with KPIs that achieve optimal campaign performance.
• Client reporting monthly and, in some cases, weekly or as requested.
• Collaboration with agency team in brainstorming, identifying, evaluating and recommending new opportunities.
• Responsible for client and vendor billing and reconciliation with accounting.
• Maintain strong relationships with other agency departments and agency partners.
• Prioritize client requests with team collaboration, including account service.
• Helping department identify training needs and providing input for educational initiatives.
• Working directly in social platforms to build recommendations, activate campaigns and pull reporting and insights.
• Manage and track pixel placement.
• Manage and report on higher budget conversion campaigns.
• Lead by example, support Walz Tetrick’s values and positively contribute to the culture.

WHAT YOU BRING TO THE TABLE

• 3+ years of experience in paid social advertising.
• Experience in planning and buying directly in social platforms with a variety of objectives and budgets.
• Self-motivation and proven time management.
• Strong written and oral communication skills.
• Established organizational expertise and keen attention to detail.
• Involvement with client and vendor billing and reconciliation.
• Ability to identify and solve problems.
• Strategic thinking and interest in what’s on the horizon and how it may impact digital/social advertising to come.
• Work well in a cross-functional, collaborative, team environment.
