Durham, NC Full Time
POSTED ON 12/15/2025
AVAILABLE BEFORE 2/15/2026

At Attention Arc, we make every media dollar work harder — blending strategy, creativity, and data to move brands forward with purpose. We’re looking for a Senior Media Planner who can connect the dots between client goals, media strategy, and flawless execution.

In this role, you’ll be the day-to-day point of contact for clients and internal teams, ensuring campaigns run smoothly from planning through reporting. You’ll translate client objectives into smart, full-funnel media strategies and collaborate across channels — from linear and CTV to digital and social.

What You’ll Do

  • Lead media planning and execution across multiple channels, grounded in client business goals.

  • Build strong, lasting relationships with clients — earning trust through proactive communication, strategic thinking, and reliable follow-through.

  • Serve as the go-to resource for client questions, providing clear explanations and thoughtful recommendations.

  • Develop and deliver clear, compelling presentations and POVs that translate media performance into business impact.

  • Partner with activation, analytics, and creative teams to ensure campaigns deliver measurable results.

  • Anticipate client needs and surface new opportunities that align with their goals.

  • Stay ahead of industry trends and bring fresh POVs to clients and internal teams.

  • Mentor junior teammates and help shape team best practices.

What We’re Looking For

  • 3–5 years of media planning or strategy experience across digital and/or traditional channels.

  • Strong client communication, presentation, and relationship-building skills.

  • Ability to synthesize data into actionable insights.

  • A proactive, curious mindset — always asking “what’s next?”

  • Comfort working in a fast-paced, collaborative environment.

Salary Range

Our estimated range for this role is $70k to $85k

Compensation packages are based on the skill level and experience each candidate brings to their role. There may also be a more senior or junior position available that could be a better fit with your expertise. Each level has its own compensation range.
