Job Description

Responsibilities

  • Lead high-profile client relationships
  • Serve as a senior strategic partner to attractions and destination clients, building trusted relationships with executive-level stakeholders while confidently leading conversations around strategy, media investment, campaign performance, and business objectives.
  • Drive integrated campaign leadership
  • Oversee complex, cross-platform campaigns from strategy through execution, partnering closely with Media, Creative, Business Intelligence, and Production teams to ensure work is smart, seamless, and effective.
  • Be deeply fluent in digital performance and driving revenue
  • Translate campaign data into actionable business insights. You should be comfortable discussing media KPIs, audience targeting, attribution, optimization strategy, pacing, and performance trends at both a strategic and tactical level. Your ultimate goal is to help our clients drive revenue and meet their goals.

  • Guide internal teams with clarity, accountability, and positivity. We value leaders who elevate the work, remain solutions-oriented under pressure, and foster a highly collaborative, low-ego culture.

Requirements

  • A strong understanding of integrated marketing with deep fluency across digital media channels and performance marketing
  • Comfortable discussing campaign performance metrics, optimization strategies, audience behavior, and media effectiveness in detail with both clients and internal teams
  • A confident communicator and presenter who can command a room, navigate challenging conversations, and build credibility with senior stakeholders
  • Highly collaborative with a team-first mindset and a willingness to roll up your sleeves when needed
  • Equal parts strategic thinker and operational doer — able to zoom out to see the big picture while staying close to execution
  • Calm, adaptable, and solutions-oriented in fast-moving environments with shifting priorities
  • Entrepreneurial and growth-minded, with enthusiasm for contributing to new business opportunities and agency growth
  • Someone who values curiosity, accountability, kindness, and collaboration.

  • Generous PTO policy plus ½- day Summer Fridays to make the most of sunny days
  • Hybrid work model – a balance of in-office collaboration (minimum three days per week) and flexibility
  • Continuous growth & learning: Annual Training & Development fund to sharpen your skills
  • Financial wellness perks: Student loan repayment or tuition assistance based on tenure
  • Paid parental leave: Up to 12 weeks to support growing families
  • Sabbatical opportunities: Recharge and return inspired with paid time off for long-term employees
  • A pet-friendly office: because great ideas come with great company
