The Opportunity

Flywheel is looking for a strategic Media Supervisor to manage the day-to-day planning and buying of media campaigns across both retail networks (like Walmart) and national channels.

  • Collaborate Across Teams: Work seamlessly with internal departments (like Account Leadership and Creative) and external partners to ensure our media and creative ideas work perfectly together.
  • Drive Innovation: Bring a fresh, energetic perspective to the team. You will adapt to new technologies and build processes that make our work more efficient.
  • Communicate Value: Clearly explain complex retail media strategies to clients so they understand exactly how our plans will achieve their business goals.

Who You Are:
  • Experience: 5+ years of experience developing and presenting strategic digital media campaigns within an agency setting.
  • Retail Media Expertise: Deep understanding of planning and executing shopper media, specifically with Walmart, Amazon, and specialty retailers (Criteo and CitrusAd experience is highly preferred).
  • Leadership: A people-first approach with a passion for teaching and educating others.
  • Analytical Mindset: Strong ability to look at campaign data, find the story behind the numbers, and explain how media performance impacts product sales.
  • Platform Knowledge: Familiarity with media research tools, ad serving, and platforms like Programmatic DSPs (e.g., The Trade Desk), Social Media, and search platforms.
  • Organization: Detail-oriented with strong Excel, PowerPoint, and Outlook skills to manage multiple fast-paced projects.
  • Travel: Ability to travel up to 4 times per year.
    • What Success Looks Like
      • Your clients see you as their strategic media partner: they trust your recommendations and value your insights
      • Campaigns launch on time, on budget, with zero errors
      • Your media plans connect directly to client sales outcomes
      • Your media team is growing; planners feel confident, engaged, and are developing new skills
      • You identify inefficiencies and bring data-driven recommendations to improve how we work
