Are you a media buyer looking to build campaigns across multiple industries and national clients? Local Hero is seeking an Associate Media Manager with an entrepreneurial spirit and steady hand to join our fast-growing marketing technology company. You will work closely with the media manager to deliver data-focused insights to the team. You have experience executing across multiple platforms and delivering high-impact media campaigns.

Perhaps most importantly, the Associate Media Manager will marry technical knowledge and platform experience with the interpersonal skills - you stand behind your point of view but are open to change; you ask what others think; you communicate your thinking proactively; you’re flexible and not afraid to try new things; you’re open to receiving and giving feedback; and you own outputs and outcomes.

Local Hero is a MAAP – Marketing as a Platform – technology company that blends local digital media, dynamic ad creation, self-serve technology, and full-service value to create custom campaigns and increase consumer traffic for national brands and local franchisees.
