Job Title
Manager, Digital Media Analytics
Job Description
The Manager of Digital Media Analytics’ core responsibilities are data analytics & storytelling, focused on but not limited to in-flight & post-sale digital campaigns. These data stories often are woven by analyzing raw reporting into insights & recommendations, within the context of driving revenue retention and growth. A strong campaign analytics manager can dive into ad performance, measurement, site & general market data across all phases of a campaign’s lifecycle to discover effective, actionable learnings.
Being able to manipulate raw data in Excel or other data visualization tools in discovering said learnings/recommendations is a critical skill of this role, but just as important is the ability to present these findings in clear, digestible formats to both internal & external clients.
This position sits on a centralized team but will be supporting the digital business through a verticalized approach – acting as subject matter expert across Dotdash Meredith’s Finance advertising vertical. This will require the candidate to work collaboratively across a matrixed organization, applying their knowledge of digital media analytics as both analyst & consult. They will be an advocate of the media learnings generated by this team for internal & external audiences. This includes acting as lead campaign analytics support across the Finance vertical’s high priority accounts.
They will also manage & mentor their direct reports on how to solve reporting, insights & strategy initiatives across their own book of business.
