The posting

WE HAVE CREATED A WORLD WHERE ART AND SCIENCE ARE BEST FRIENDS

Known is what happens when a data science firm and a creative agency stop arguing and start collaborating. We were built from scratch with PhD data scientists and award-winning creatives working on the same briefs, from day one. That structure earned us an Ad Age #3 A-List ranking, back-to-back Data & Insights Agency of the Year wins, plus Emmys, Cannes Lions, Clios, and Effies across clients in finance, tech, entertainment, consumer goods, and real estate. We're distributed across the U.S. and unapologetically ambitious.

If you're tired of choosing between doing smart work and doing creative work, you'll fit right in here.

BUT ENOUGH ABOUT US, LET'S TALK ABOUT YOU

About the role:

Known’s Media Science team uses advanced analytics, machine learning, statistics, and algorithms to plan and optimize advertising dollars. We partner with our clients to translate their business goals into meaningful metrics, and buy media across all channels to drive those target outcomes. We are looking for someone to join the team and work alongside data analysts, data scientists, media strategists, media buyers, and software engineers.

This role is on the “Buyer Science” team: a group of data scientists who specialize in media measurement, data analysis, experimental design, and campaign optimization. You’ll work hand-in-hand with Known’s media strategists, media channel experts, and directly with clients to elevate their media performance and drive real business value. You will also work with other data scientists to develop campaign measurement strategies, build experimentation plans, and collaborate with media planners and channel teams to ensure media allocations are built scientifically. At the Consultant level, you’ll conduct analyses in service of campaign optimization, surface insights that go beyond media metrics to incorporate first party data, and help drive business strategy. You may find yourself working with our development team (Skeptic) to help productionalize deeper and more technical approaches to common media challenges. In many cases you would work with senior managers on the team and in some cases (especially over time) you would be expected to lead projects independently.

You would be expected to embrace your project management responsibilities, from defining key business objectives, to designing the measurement or analytical approach, to analyzing data, and presenting findings. You would also be expected to ensure that our clients have an amazing experience and reinforce our relationship with them as trusted and valued partners.

  • Passion for managing the quality & accuracy of data sources and downstream analytics, including checking your and others’ work.
  • Experience working on a variety of projects simultaneously and delivering results on a deadline.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

  • Project management and ownership. While you have will account-level project management support, you will independently manage workstreams you own.
  • Understanding the client’s overall business objectives and translating them into a campaign and measurement strategy.
  • Overseeing the performance of media campaigns and amazing our clients, both by meeting their targets and creating insightful narratives through bespoke reporting. Writing reports and presenting to clients in a way that is engaging and persuasive.

Why it works

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
