Senior Specialist, Search
New York, NY
WE HAVE CREATED A WORLD WHERE ART AND SCIENCE ARE BEST FRIENDS
Known is what happens when a data science firm and a creative agency stop arguing and start collaborating. We were built from scratch with PhD data scientists and award-winning creatives working on the same briefs, from day one. That structure earned us an Ad Age #3 A-List ranking, back-to-back Data & Insights Agency of the Year wins, plus Emmys, Cannes Lions, Clios, and Effies across clients in finance, tech, entertainment, consumer goods, and real estate. We're distributed across the U.S. and unapologetically ambitious.
If you're tired of choosing between doing smart work and doing creative work, you'll fit right in here.
About The Role
BUT ENOUGH ABOUT US, LET'S TALK ABOUT YOU
The Media Science team continues to grow and so does our need for a Senior Specialist on the Paid Search team. This position is responsible for the creation, maintenance, and optimization of our search ad campaigns, using analytics, automation, and piloting internal tools. While they will be working in a team with at least one more senior member, this position is assuming experience executing and reporting on paid search campaigns, and therefore some ability to do so independently. Senior Specialists are expected to have excellent critical thinking skills, with an innate sense of curiosity and the desire to explore new ways to evolve and improve campaign setup to deliver ROI for our clients. In addition, time and project management skills are key to being successful in this role.
Being a Senior Specialist at Known is a unique opportunity for those pursuing a career in this field. In addition to the analytics and operations which form the basis of our campaigns, our Senior Specialists often work directly with clients, attending client meetings and presenting recommendations and results with support from more senior members. They are responsible for contributing significantly to deliverables, including regular campaign optimizations.
What You’ll Do
All this might sound great, but you’re probably still wondering, “Would I be a good fit for Known?” or “Would Known be a good fit for me?” Our culture is propped up by four values that we aspire to every day: We are one team. We see the good. We never stop learning. There’s always a better way. At Known we are setting out to build something more than just a company. We are building a legacy filled with exceptionally talented people with a kaleidoscope of backgrounds, experiences, and origin stories who feel encouraged and empowered to bring their whole selves to work, and to partner with us in molding and shaping our culture through our values.
Known is an equal opportunity employer and does not discriminate against employees or qualified job applicants on the basis of race, color, sex, age, national origin, religion, sexual orientation, gender identity and/or expression, status as a veteran, and basis of disability or any other federal, state or locally protected class.

This range is posted in compliance with state and municipal Pay Transparency laws. In addition to base compensation, this role is eligible to receive additional Known benefits.
