• Evaluate digital advertising performance – produce detailed reports on campaigns.
• Project management: Keep task lists, meetings agendas, and communications calendars across your clients.
• Participate in client strategy and media planning meetings.
• Research new advertising venues and stay abreast of online advertising trends; develop and maintain relationships with vendors and partners.
• Do your part to help us run smoothly, including carefully tracking all of your hours.
