You'll manage integrated campaigns on Meta, TikTok, YouTube and Google, and you'll own retail media execution on Amazon Ads and Walmart Connect for our CPG accounts. This is the role for someone who can connect an upper funnel view through to units moving at Walmart, and who gets excited about the messy middle where brand media meets shopper.

  12. Support joint business planning and trade conversations with media backed rationale.

  14. Performance Analysis
  15. Monitor and analyze campaign performance across digital, retail media and offline channels to find optimization opportunities.
  16. Build and present performance reporting with clear insights and recommendations.

  18. Connect retail media outcomes back to full funnel performance so clients see how brand spend shows up at register.
  19. Client Relationship Management
  20. Deliver client facing strategic recommendations grounded in performance data and category trends.

  22. Serve as a trusted day to day contact who anticipates needs and brings ideas before being asked.
