Full-Time | NY or LA Preferred
Our client is a growth marketing consultancy.
We're looking for a media leader who knows what great looks like and is actively reimagining what it looks like next. This person has agency-side experience and real relationships, but isn't married to how things have always been done. AI and automation are reshaping media practices fast, and we want someone who sees that as an opportunity, not a threat.
You'll lead our Growth Marketing team, own the practice's standards and evolution, and be a key voice in new business.
What You'll Own
- Leadership and development of the Growth Marketing team across paid media and retention
- Media strategy: from channel planning through optimization and measurement
- Building and refining practice processes
- New business: bringing sharp, credible media thinking into pitches and proposals
- Actively integrating emerging tools and approaches into how the team works
What We're Looking For
- 8+ years in paid media, with meaningful time inside an established agency or consultancy
- A people leader who develops talent and holds a high bar
- Genuine curiosity about AI and automation and hands-on experience applying it to media work
- Comfortable in a lean environment where craft and innovation matter more than headcount
Why This Role The practice has a strong foundation and a capable team and the firm is part of a larger Network which brings in integrated opportunities. The opportunity is to lead it into its next chapter.
