Sr. Analyst, Paid Media

Sr. Analyst, Paid Media

Job Overview

Numbers tell a story—but only if you know how to read them. As a Senior Analyst of Paid Media, you’re the person who turns campaign data into strategic direction, identifying what’s working, what’s underperforming, and what to do about it. You’ll shape data-driven strategies, derive insights, and provide recommendations that directly optimize client performance.

This isn’t a role where you hand off a dashboard and call it done. You’re expected to advise—to frame insights through a business lens and help clients understand what the numbers mean for their goals. You’ll also be an early adopter of AI tools, finding ways to work faster and dig deeper. Our clients span B2B organizations with complex sales cycles through to multi-location businesses in higher education, healthcare, retail, and grocery, so you’ll gain deep exposure to both lead-based pipeline strategy and in-store and ecommerce impact. If you’re someone who gets energized by finding the insight no one else saw and explaining why it matters, you’ll thrive here.
