About the Role

We are seeking a Media Strategist who thrives at the intersection of media and client services. This hybrid role blends strategic thinking, data-driven insights, and client-facing collaboration. The ideal candidate is equal parts researcher, strategist, and communicator-someone who can translate complex data into clear strategies and ensure media recommendations align with client goals and audience needs.

What You'll Do

  • Research & Insights

Conduct industry, competitive, and audience research to uncover meaningful insights.

  • Develop thoughtful points of view (POVs) and recommendations that inform client strategy.
  • Strategic Media Planning

    • Build integrated media strategies across digital, social, traditional, and emerging platforms.

  • Align plans with client business objectives, target audience behaviors, and performance data.
  • Leverage analytics and data to inform planning, optimization, and measurement.
  • Client Partnership

    • Collaborate with account and client service teams to ensure media strategies connect seamlessly to broader marketing initiatives.

  • Present research, POVs, and media recommendations with clarity and confidence.
  • Serve as a trusted partner for clients, helping them navigate a dynamic media landscape.
  • Cross-Functional Collaboration

    • Partner closely with internal creative, media buying, and analytics teams to deliver cohesive campaigns.

  • Ensure strategies are executable, measurable, and adaptable to client needs.

    • What We're Looking For

  • 3-5 years of experience in media strategy, media planning, or a related marketing role (agency experience a plus).
  • Strong research and analytical skills, with the ability to synthesize data into actionable insights.
  • Familiarity with media planning tools, analytics platforms, and measurement frameworks.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills-able to translate complex ideas into simple, compelling recommendations.
  • Collaborative spirit with a client-first mindset.
  • Detail-oriented with strong organizational skills and the ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously.

    • Why You'll Love Working Here

    At 116 & West, you'll be part of a team that values creativity, collaboration, and bold thinking. We offer a flexible, supportive culture that encourages professional growth and celebrates success-together.
