Media Associate

Podean is the leading global marketplace marketing agency. We work with progressive brands across the globe to unlock potential on Amazon, Target, Walmart, and other marketplaces. Our services span eCommerce strategy, content creation and optimization, media management, retail operations, data and analytics, consulting, and social commerce. Recent award wins include Digiday’s Best Employer for Remote Employees and Amazon’s Global Expansion Partner Award.

We are looking for a self-motivated go-getter (and a quick learner!) to join our fast-growing media team in Europe. This role would suit someone early in their career with hands-on experience supporting Amazon campaigns who is now ready to take on more strategic ownership. As a Marketplace Media Associate, you’ll manage campaigns across the UK, Germany, and other markets - analysing performance, presenting insights to clients, and helping drive results. You’ll be the go-to contact for your clients and a key team player, working independently and collaboratively to keep campaigns on track.

You’ll play an important role in supporting our clients, with your day-to-day focused on the following tasks and activities:

• A key contact for clients, third-party vendors, and internal departments for all matters involving paid search.
• Daily in-person or email/phone communication with clients and internal departments within other disciplines (e.g. content, account management and analytics teams).
• Plan and run Amazon media campaigns, including setting strategy, launching new activity, testing new ideas, and reviewing performance to share clear, useful insights.
• Work with other media team members to turn client goals into campaign plans that deliver results across Amazon and other marketplaces.
• Analyse performance data across multiple touchpoints to identify what’s working, troubleshoot issues, and continuously refine strategy to keep campaigns running efficiently.
• Work with other team members, such as account managers and content managers by clearly communicating task execution, sharing timelines, and offering helpful feedback.
• Take part in performance reviews and help others grow in their roles.

Role Requirements:

We’re looking for someone with 1–3 years of hands-on experience in Amazon or marketplace media (PPC), ideally managing campaigns across the UK, Germany, and other European markets. You should feel comfortable taking ownership of media strategy and be confident presenting insights and recommendations to clients.

Skills, Experience & Qualifications Required:

• Experience working in-platform with Amazon Sponsored Ads or a similar PPC model is essential; familiarity with Amazon DSP is a plus.
• In-Platform experience with campaign bidding/management tools would also be advantageous.
• Comfortable analysing campaign data to spot trends and opportunities.
• Able to build strategic recommendations, with support, from performance insights.
• Strong communicator with a professional presence and clear client-facing style.
• Strong Microsoft Excel skills: pivot tables, vlookups, and chart building.
• Ability to work independently and effectively multitask across multiple priorities.
• Curious and thoughtful – you don’t just report numbers, you look for what they mean.
• Fluency in European languages, in addition to English, would be an advantage but is not essential.

Key Qualities:

• Proactive, curious and with an enthusiastic attitude.
• Flexible and can cope with change.
• Highly responsive and organised, with proven project management skills.
• Ability to multitask.
• Ability to clearly communicate your ideas.
• Attention to detail.

If you’re looking to build your marketplace media expertise in a supportive, fast-paced environment, this role is a great next step. Remuneration will be competitive plus benefits, along with our flexible #workfromanywhere policy.
