We are working with a heavily creative growth marketing agency built on one belief: an ad nobody remembers is just expensive wallpaper. This agency sees media buying and the creative iterations that fill those slots as a true craft. A craft currently lost to CTR, CTA, ROAS and any other acronym drowning the industry. The premise is simple: understand where your audience truly spends their time and create beautiful content that appeals to the targeted audience. The results will follow.
While the rest of the industry races to optimise its way into invisibility, this agency uses machine learning to find the audiences that matter, then spends its energy on content peopleactuallywanttosee.
What they need now is a media buyer who thinks like a strategist and a culture-watcher in equal measure - someone who'll fight for the story as hard as they fight for the CPA.
Our client is open to speaking to people with varying levels of experience in media buying - approach and thought process are more important than years of experience.
