You’ll explain not just what happened, but why it happened and what actions should follow. Proactively proposing new tests, optimizations, and opportunities to expand impact within the platforms you manage.
  • Set Direction Within the Channel. Within the broader growth and marketing goals, you’ll help shape paid social strategy for the channels you own. You’ll independently develop campaign ideas, testing priorities, and optimization approaches, staying current on platform updates, new placements, and emerging best practices to continuously improve performance.
