Develop and provide Strategic Insights, Campaign Wrap-ups, and/or Quarterly Business Reviews to client(s). Own the training plan for new clients as well as continued training for existing clients. Represent client needs by providing feedback to Product Solutions to identify and define features, integrations, and product improvements. Able to lead and be proactive, not just manage tasks; think multiple steps ahead to move an account forward. Leverage AI tools (such as Claude) to analyze DSP performance reporting, synthesize campaign data, and uncover actionable optimization insights for client accounts. Utilize AI-assisted workflows to draft client presentation decks (including QBRs and campaign wrap-ups) and organize follow-up tracking for incremental client pitches. Identify opportunities to replace manual administrative tasks with automated or AI-enabled workflows, continually improving daily operational efficiency. Basic Qualifications: 2-4 years of digital advertising, account management, sales planning, or client services experience. Demonstrated experience managing, troubleshooting, and optimizing digital advertising campaigns against performance benchmarks (ROI, CPA, CTR, ROAS).

Practical experience or demonstrated familiarity using generative AI / LLM tools (e.g., Claude) to analyze reporting data, draft client-facing communications, and organize workflows. Strong critical judgment to validate and refine AI-generated outputs for factual accuracy, brand alignment, and strategic relevance. Excellent verbal and written communication skills with experience presenting campaign insights to agency or direct brand stakeholders. Strong organizational and prioritization abilities with a track record of balancing multiple concurrent client requests.
