Visual Operations Manager Jobs in Kentucky (NOW HIRING)

Salary Range: $95,000.00 To $105,000.00 Annually

In the age of algorithms and automation, Causal offers a fresh take on the role of a programmatic solutions provider. Our approach to digital marketing emphasizes the importance of human expertise layered with technology to make informed marketing decisions. We hire some of the industry's most sought-after experts and empower them to approach challenges from new angles, driving change in the way marketers interact with technology.

At Causal, successful campaigns begin long before they launch. Our Advertising Operations team plays a critical role in ensuring every creative asset, tag, tracker, measurement partner, and user experience functions properly before reaching consumers.

Causal is searching for a Sr. Advertising Operation Manager. Unlike traditional Ad Operations roles that focus primarily on end-to-end campaign setup, reporting, and optimization, this position specializes in the creative side of digital advertising.

As a Senior Advertising Operations Manager, you will be a technical leader and subject matter expert within the Advertising Operations team. This role is responsible for all core functions of the Advertising Operations Manager position while helping scale the team’s knowledge, processes, and operational excellence. In addition to supporting creative implementation, troubleshooting, quality assurance, test pages, and client-facing screenshots, the Senior Advertising Operations Manager acts as a mentor, trainer, and escalation point for the team. This individual plays a key role in developing best practices, improving workflows, documenting processes, and helping team members grow their creative technical expertise. You will work closely with Account Operations to ensure campaigns launch successfully and deliver the best possible user experience.

This role is ideal for someone who enjoys solving complex creative tag implementation challenges, leading troubleshooting efforts, and driving operational excellence across campaign launches. One day you may be troubleshooting a complex third-party ad tag implementation or appending a measurement vendor pixel. The next, you may be reviewing HTML5 creative code, developing internal documentation, or training team members on platform setups.

If you're interested in developing and furthering your career while being a key contributor to the company’s growth, this is the place for you!
