Sr. Paid Media Manager - Entertainment in CA by ANTI AGENCY GROUP

** Must live and work in California **
**Must have PAID media experience**
**Must Have entertainment experience (client or agency)** 
**Must Have the authorization to live and work in the United States**

WHO WE ARE
We’re Anti Agency Group, a remote-first marketing group that doesn't do things the traditional agency way. Every member of our team, including all three founders, have served time at one or more media holding groups, and frankly, none of us ever want to go back. If you’re in the same boat and looking for a new job, we may have a proposition for you.

Hiring is a time consuming process for both the hiring company and prospective candidates, so we’re laying everything out as transparently as possible in order to not waste anyone’s time. If you think you’re a good fit for this role, please include 2-3 sentences in the cover letter section on what in this job description resonated with you! 

WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR
We're seeking a results-driven paid media strategist to lead the execution of major theatrical campaigns. You'll leverage your 7+ years of experience crafting large-scale integrated campaigns for entertainment clients, along with a proven track record of managing 5+ cross-channel campaigns simultaneously. Your expertise in biddable platforms, traditional media (especially linear TV), programmatic strategies, measurement solutions (i.e., brand lift studies), pixel implementation, and creative best practices will be essential to success.  

OKAY, BUT WHAT'S THE WORK?

To best explain what to expect, we broke down what your week would look like on average: 

50% Campaign Strategy/Management/Reporting
25% Meetings
10% Emails
10% Ops/Misc./Admin
5% Fire Drills 

This is an independent contributor role, and most of the time will be spent on marketing campaigns where you’ll work directly with an entertainment client to understand their business and marketing goals; you’ll strategize and execute the media campaign* and provide reporting and optimizations. Essentially, you’ll be wearing the hats of an account manager, a strategist, and a media buyer; we find streamlining all the steps of a campaign through one well-rounded individual** makes for much stronger and holistic marketing campaigns and is also much more efficient than constantly playing telephone with 5 different people to get one task done.

*Strategizing and executing media campaigns include advising clients on how much to spend, when to spend, where to spend, who to target, what creative to run, RFP partners including digital and traditional, negotiating rates, placing retargeting and/or conversion pixels, building custom audience segments, implementing brand lift studies, or auditing past campaigns.
