Job Description

Responsibilities

  • Own the end-to-end analytics strategy for client accounts, ensuring robust conversion tracking via Google Tag Manager (web and server-side), enhanced conversions for paid media platforms (Google Ads, Meta, LinkedIn, TikTok), and accurate data flow into reporting systems
  • Define and maintain measurement frameworks that connect marketing activity to client KPIs, with a focus on revenue attribution and channel-level performance
  • Stay ahead of platform changes, privacy regulations, and cookie deprecation, ensuring our tracking architecture and consent strategies evolve accordingly
  • Oversee the design, build, and maintenance of client-facing dashboards in Looker Studio, powered by data ETL’d into and housed in BigQuery

  • Step into client-facing conversations when accounts need senior-level strategic guidance, QBR support, or stakeholder alignment on measurement approach

  • Identify and eliminate bottlenecks in analytics workflows, from account onboarding and tracking setup to dashboard delivery and ongoing reporting cycles
  • Build and document scalable processes, templates, and SOPs that reduce time-to-value for new accounts and free the team to focus on higher-impact work

  • Strong understanding of data ETL processes and how marketing data flows from platforms through pipelines into a data warehouse
  • Experience working with client CRM systems (Salesforce, HubSpot, or similar) and connecting CRM data to marketing performance reporting
  • Demonstrated ability to build new analytics deliverables or service lines from scratch and scale them across a client portfolio
  • Track record of managing account escalations with poise and urgency
