Job Description

What does Zenith Analytics do?

Working closely with both the Business Planning and Activation teams, Analytics designs the data strategy to tie our clients' marketing to real-world business goals. We then mine that data to optimize campaigns and tell the stories that bring our clients closer to their marketing, helping them understand if they're talking to the people they want, and if they're doing it the right way.

What does a successful Director look like?

We don't all look the same, and we don't expect you to, either. But successful members of our team generally have a passion for emerging tech and media, bring a data-driven approach to decision-making, have a fresh perspective and share it in a positive way, don't shy away from a challenge, and are always hungry to learn more.

We look for prior experience in media analytics, especially digital media. You should already be used to representing your team to external clients, since Associate Directors are often the face of our Analytics team. We hope you're a numbers whiz and know how to bring data to life through a compelling story. We're also hoping you have at least two years of experience managing junior-level staff members and have at least seven years of prior professional experience.

Responsibilities

What does an Analytics Director do day-to-day?

Our Directors work very closely with their team of analysts to help them stay on track with day-to-day deliverables. They also contribute crucial intellectual capital to their teams by designing campaign measurement plans based on their client's business needs, and use data to tell great stories. Associate Directors also work closely with their VP to formulate a vision for their accounts, and then execute on that vision with their team of analysts. As such, Associate Directors are mentors, managers, project managers, and thought leaders, all at the same time.
