● Implement optimizations under the guidance of senior media team members
● Pull platform performance reports and help translate data into clear insights for external partners
● Support the development of media plans, audience targeting recommendations, and platform-level execution strategies
● Coordinate ad creative assets, copy updates, tracking links, and trafficking requirements
● Assist with tagging, conversion tracking, QA, and campaign launch checks
● Help build clear, client-ready reporting materials and performance summaries
● Work across multiple concurrent campaigns while keeping details organized and deadlines on track
● Collaborate with internal teams to ensure campaigns are executed accurately, efficiently, and on time

What We’re Looking For:
● 1–3 years of experience in digital marketing, paid media, campaign advertising, or a related field
● Familiarity with platforms such as Google Ads, Meta Ads Manager, and/or programmatic DSPs such as The Trade Desk or DV360
● Strong attention to detail and comfort working with campaign data, spreadsheets, and reporting outputs
● Basic understanding of digital advertising metrics, pacing, optimization, and performance reporting
● Ability to learn quickly, apply feedback, and stay organized in a fast-moving environment
● Strong written and verbal communication skills
● Interest in political media, advocacy, public affairs, or campaign advertising
● Experience with political campaigns, advocacy organizations, or agency environments is a plus
● Familiarity with Google Analytics or similar analytics/reporting tools is a plus
