• Manage, coach, and coordinate advertising staff while working closely with a smart, experienced team across the agency.

• Help maintain high standards for strategy, execution, responsiveness, and client service.

• Participate in business development, including pitches, proposals, and opportunities to grow existing accounts.

What you bring

• Significant experience in advertising or marketing, ideally in an agency or other client-facing environment.

• Strong knowledge of digital advertising, including Google Ads, Meta advertising, targeting, measurement, and campaign optimization.

• A demonstrated ability to develop marketing plans and present recommendations confidently to clients and senior decision-makers.

• Experience leading staff, managing competing priorities, and keeping complex work moving.

• Strategic thinking, sound business judgment, and the ability to solve problems without losing sight of the client relationship.

• Strong writing, communication, and presentation skills.

• Experience using AI tools effectively and responsibly as part of the marketing process.

• Google certifications and relevant Meta or other industry credentials are valued assets.

This position leads the advertising and marketing side of the agency. It offers the opportunity to make a meaningful impact, grow into a more senior title, and earn commissions through business development.
