  • Develop in-depth performance analyses and projection models using campaign analytics and reporting tools to guide strategic decision-making.
  • Maintain proper budget pacing across various clients, channels, tactics, and creatives.
  • Plan and execute A / B and multivariate tests across ad units, landing pages, creative, messaging, and other key campaign variables to optimize performance.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams—including account, strategy, and creative—to ensure paid media efforts are aligned with overarching client business objectives.
  • Work directly with clients to present media plans, strategies, reporting, analysis, etc.
  • Stay up to date on media trends, emerging platforms, and best practices to continuously improve campaign impact.
