Job Description

Who we're looking for:

Does the thought of social engines, targeted interests, and ad copy & image testing make you jump out of your chair with excitement? Do you eat, drink, and breathe bid optimizations? We want to talk to you!

We are on the hunt for a superstar looking to begin their career in Social Marketing - a solution-seeker who always looks on the bright side and is willing to jump over obstacles to bring the work from good to great!

We value our culture above anything else, and that culture is built on the spirit of our people. We're looking for tireless optimists, happy warriors and fearless collaborators who bring that extra dose of contagious energy.

The Opportunity:

If you're reading this, we want to talk to you about joining our team as a Social Senior Associate. Your responsibilities will include:

• Conduct testing
• Plan budgets and flighting
• Develop insights and actions (implications) that demonstrate a thorough understanding of the client's goals across all relevant objectives
• Conduct report analyses
• Develop projections/proposals and understand the tools used to build them
• Understand, implement, and troubleshoot the tracking process
• Proactively bring new ideas for the account to improve performance
• Identify and implement advanced optimization tactics
• Leverage advanced Excel and campaign management tool skills

You will be poised for a position of growth within your Digital Activation team - the person closest to the day-to-day details of the campaign and working closely with a more experienced Supervisor to learn advanced methods of data analysis and bid management to identify opportunities and unlock new heights of campaign performance. In addition to execution and management, you'll have opportunities to contribute ideas to the planning process and help guide the direction of every campaign you work on.

Our employees have a wealth of resources at their fingertips including customized training from the likes of Facebook, Twitter and TikTok as well as regular updates on industry research and best practices to keep you at the top of the field.

Even if you decide that Social isn't where you want to be and you're more of a Marketing Science type, we offer the ability to switch disciplines and explore new paths with ease.

Our expectations of you:

Senior Associates are able to operate fairly autonomously to effectively meet client goals and expectations day-to-day. This includes the ability develop and implement basic tactical strategies, define goals, define timelines, and manage to them, problem-solve, and plan for contingencies across brand awareness, consideration and conversion campaigns.

The beginnings of leadership skills are also expected of a Social Senior Associate. They should be able to train, mentor and help onboard more junior team members, challenge existing processes, help bring new ideas to quarterly planning sessions, and overall be a self-driven learner and solutions-oriented team member.

What You’ll Need To Succeed

• Bachelor's degree in marketing, advertising or communications, or relevant post-secondary education, training, or equivalent experience
• 1+ years of work experience managing accounts focused on delivering and optimizing social marketing and/or other interactive campaigns
• Be a proactive self-starter
• Be a team player and committed to training
• Possess a desire to work for a fast-paced, results-based company
• Have strong program management and organizational skills being able to manage multiple projects at once
• Be confident in analyzing and acting on marketing data

In addition to technical skills, Senior Associates should be able to effectively communicate, including the ability to:

• Effectively convey insights to the client
• Tie what's happening in the accounts to the client's business
• Build relationships with clients and partners such as engines or networks
• Adjust their communication style based on the audience
• Prepare basic and assist with client-facing deliverables, including presentations and quarterly reviews
• Understand how to effectively organize ideas and concepts through tools such as PowerPoint

The outcomes we will celebrate:

Strong client relationships, admiring teammates, more effective plans, industry awards, strong agency partnerships.

Who You’ll Partner With

You'll work most closely with your direct Social team, working hand in hand with a Social Coordinator and reporting into a Supervisor.

Beyond your immediate team, you'll also work closely with the rest of the Digital Activation team, including Search and Programmatic Video/Display, as well as the wider media and marketing sciences teams to drive your client’s business forward.

What you can expect:

The chance to grow the agency and yourself.

Freedom to collaborate with over 4,000 colleagues in 80+ offices worldwide.

The ability to be brave, try new things and help continue to grow our digital offering.

A place that cares about your personal passions just as much as your work.
