The Role

We're looking for a high will / high strategic skill Senior Digital Media Strategist to support our Director, Paid Media in leading the next evolution of performance marketing at IDX. This is not a "support" role; it is a position defined by strategy and the ability to own cross-platform paid channels.

You will move fluidly between accounts as needed, ensuring our strategy remains cohesive across platforms.

What You'll Be Doing
Strategic Execution (The "Vertical")
  • Multi-Platform Ownership: Lead the end-to-end strategy, setup, and optimization for complex accounts across Meta and Google Ads, moving beyond "awareness" into full-funnel execution.
  • Performance Benchmarking: Manage campaign pacing and budget oversight while hitting client KPIs through proactive tactical adjustments.
  • Ad Psychology: Partner with creative teams to brief and test ad formats informed by buyer psychology and AI-driven use cases, rather than relying solely on platform best practices.

  • Strategic Pivot Ability: Re-forecast and reframe performance stories when external factors shift or platform changes disrupt trends.
  • Cross-Channel Synthesis: Conduct gap analyses between Search and Social to identify audience overlaps and untapped opportunities for integrated media plans.

  • Expert Proficiency in at least two primary platforms (Meta Ads Manager and Google Ads).
  • Technical Mastery: Strong understanding of universal tracking logic, including GTM, GA4, platform pixels, CAPI, and attribution modeling.
  • High Strategic Skill: Proven ability to look at a complex account and suggest optimizations rather than asking "What is the ask?"
  • Communication: Ability to present complex performance data to internal stakeholders and clients with clarity and confidence.

What Makes You Stand Out
  • Experience with Programmatic media platforms (DV360, The Trade Desk).
  • Experience implementing or managing departmental SOPs to standardize team-wide delivery.
