We’re looking for an ace Media Planner who is also a delight to work with, which usually includes:

• A four-year college education and two to three years of media planning and/or buying experience (preferably with some online experience)
• An awareness of the video space – you are inspired by the rapid changes happening within it – and have a hunger to learn
• Exceptional communication skills – you’re skilled at working on a team, and problem solving and being flexible so you can roll with whatever challenges arise, client or internal
• A strong, proven ability to teach analytic skills to others, developing, encouraging, and inspiring them to grow
• Willingness to travel as needed – you’re open to new places, new faces and new ideas

Got what it takes? We’d love to hear from you.
