+ Leveraging data & audience insights, as well as historical performance, to validate video investment strategies, inform tactical decisions, and exhibit ongoing willingness to optimize investments for campaign success.

+ Overseeing the work of video specialists, managing workflow and providing strategic guidance and oversight

+ A willingness to learn about and embrace local formats like local TV, radio, and OOH – which our team often advises on in addition to national video

+ Providing thoughtful feedback to direct reports, using performance evaluation and internal process improvement to develop and motivate talent

+ Contributing to new business pitches by lending strategic video expertise and high-level planning across a variety of categories and prospective clients

+ Staying up-to-date on the latest advanced video offerings in the marketplace spanning streaming and addressable TV

+ Bachelor's degree or higher, with a concentration in advertising, marketing, business administration, communications, or equivalent

+ Analytical background – comfort with data and numbers

+ 5+ years of people managing experience, overseeing five or more reports in an account management/client services team

+ Deep industry relationships with video partners

+ Excellent negotiation skills and understanding of how to add incremental value and communicate that to our clients

+ Strong communication and writing skills—you’re poised, precise, and above all, kind when engaging with others

+ Able to package, merchandise, and sell in concepts and new opportunities

+ Strategic thinking and able to see the bigger picture

+ Self-starter with ability to work independently and in a collaborative team setting

Got what it takes? We’d love to hear from you.
