  • Overseeing the full and timely delivery of contracted services.
Your Key Skills

  • Providing accurate, meaningful client reporting by program, campaign and channel. Troubleshooting problems as they arise and implementing actionable solutions. Analysing competitor activity.
  • Researching and evaluating the latest trends and techniques to find new and better ways of measuring paid activity.
  • Assisting CMA Account Managers with strategy development on a client-by-client basis. Participating in meetings. Updating client briefs and related documentation. 
  • Supporting the Digital Marketing Manager with research into new CMA services related to your field of expertise.

      Attributes
      • You have a can-do attitude and a love of all things digital.
      • You demonstrate high levels of initiative and display full ownership of your work. You identify and address problems proactively.
      • You possess excellent communication skills, both verbal and written.
      • You’re a team player but are able to work independently with confidence. You manage tasks efficiently and help others do the same. 
      • You’re a habitual learner who thrives working in a fast-paced, fast-changing, yet supportive environment.
