What You’ll Do
As a media associate at Mad Genius, you will support the media director across the full media lifecycle—helping plan, execute, and optimize campaigns across digital, social, broadcast, and out-of-home channels—while keeping creative assets, vendors, schedules, and budgets in perfect sync. You’ll coordinate media traffic and creative delivery, track campaign performance and broadcast accuracy, assist with organic and paid social efforts, and ensure billing and invoicing are accurate and on time. Along the way, you’ll support client communications, reporting, and research, acting as a reliable connective tissue between media, creative, vendors, and accounting—basically making sure nothing slips through the cracks (or explodes on launch day).
