Digital Media Manager

We are looking for a Digital Media Manager  to join our team!

We are looking for an analytical individual who thrives on pushing boundaries, someone who’s not comfortable with the status-quo. You like rolling up your sleeves and getting into the weeds and translate data to tell a story. You are a collaborator player who is keen on building meaningful connections and eager to learn and grow professionally in a highly flexible and fast-moving environment; a team player who is excited to be a part of a larger designated team working on a major national client. 

Who is the theturnlab?

One part consultancy. One part ad agency. One part technology company.

We are a marketing and technology lab, leveraging curiosity, data-driven insights, and 25 years of market expertise to pinpoint and solve our client's business challenges. We are a team of self-starting, problem-solvers. We are ambitious, thick-skinned, fast-paced, and constantly looking to add curious, passionate, and solution-focused individuals to our team. Additionally, we are proud to be an equal opportunity employer and are committed to creating a diverse and inclusive workplace.

If you can think on your feet, get excited about troubleshooting, approach your craft with pride and enthusiasm, and want to work for a purpose-driven organization that’s a Certified B Corporation and runs 100% carbon neutral, then WE might just be the place for YOU!
