Growth Analyst

About the Role

We are on the hunt for a talented analyst to help scale growth across our portfolio of clients. This is a hands-on-keyboard role for an ambitious, quantitatively-minded individual looking to grow their media buying expertise and capabilities. Our analysts operate at the tip of the spear on client engagements: you will own day to day execution across a portfolio of channels and work collaboratively to drive performance through analysis, research, and experimentation. You will report into one of our Media Managers and learn from a team of experienced practitioners across marketing, engineering, and design. You will be expected to learn rapidly, deliver meaningful value, and contribute to a culture of operational excellence.

Who are we looking for?

This role is a great fit for early career media buyers with around 1 or 2 years of experience. The ideal candidate over-indexes on analytical rigor, precision, and agility. You must be able to extract actionable insights from raw data and communicate them effectively to a diverse set of stakeholders.

For this role we require previous experience with media channels, performance marketing, quantitative business analysis and industry tools. You should be able to jump right in, helping to manage accounts and communicate back out to managers, senior team members, and clients.

While we offer training and mentorship from a very experienced team, you should also be a self-starter able to learn autonomously without fear of raising your hand with questions.

What will you do every day

Manage ad operations and tactical execution across a set of paid advertising channels

Prepare in-depth trend and progress reporting for Headlight and client stakeholders

Serve as a go-to resource for ad hoc requests and projects

Help define near-to-medium term growth strategies across a selection of clients through ongoing analysis and research
