J
Digital Advertising Specialist (FT)
  • JoshuaOneNine
  • Bloomington, IL FULL_TIME
  • Digital Advertising Specialist (SEM, Social, Streaming & Analytics)

    PLEASE NOTE: This is NOT a remote/WFH position. And if you are an agency, please do not reach out with a solicitation. This is a full-time, in-person position, supporting local businesses in our community. Please provide a cover letter. We want to know your story and why you're interested in us. It matters.

    JOB SUMMARY:
    Responsible for digital paid advertising research, distribution, optimization and reporting via:
    • Google Ad Campaigns (PPC Search, YouTube, Display, etc.)
    • Social Media Ad Campaigns (Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, etc.)
    • Streaming Media Ad Campaigns (OTT Video, Audio, OOH, etc.).
    • Campaign Reporting & Tracking (Native platforms, GA4, GTM, Looker Studio, etc.).

    The ideal candidate is an expert at utilizing these tools together for small businesses to properly place and track the performance of ads, and the customer behavior that results. The expectation is you know how to connect things, know what you’re seeing, can provide analysis, and can communicate your recommendations to the owner and our small business clients. This is a very active, trusted, hands-on position where attention to detail, trust, and accountability are vital.

    This position is NOT responsible for organic social media management, social content, social posting, or reputation management. You will not be doing graphic design, or shooting photos, or editing videos. At most, you’ll suggest headlines and descriptions for PPC based on your research and analysis of results.

    SALARY & BENEFITS:
    • Starting range of $45,000 - $70,000 annually based on skills, competencies, demonstrated experience & qualifications.
    • Hours are in office Monday-Friday, 8a-4pm with occasional evening or weekend commitments in support of client events and programs.
    • Health Insurance benefits include an optional HRA (Health Reimbursement Agreement)
    • Paid Vacation & Sick Days

    TO APPLY:
    • Cover letter explaining why you'd be the right fit for our company and this role.
    • Resume with references.
    • Reports or samples that help demonstrate your ad placement & analysis work.
    • Estimated start date, if offered the position. We understand what it means to finish well at your current employer and provide them enough time to rehire.

    INTERVIEW TIMELINE:
    Interviews are expected to start in December 2023 and continue until the right candidate is found. This could happen immediately in December 2023, or it could stretch into 2024. We are, however, aiming for an expected start date by the end of February 2024.

    SKILLS & COMPETENCIES:
    You will need to be an expert at ad campaign research, placement, optimization and reporting across the following Ad Platforms:
    • GOOGLE ADS: This includes Google Ad Products & features such as PPC Search, Display, Video (YouTube), Retargeting, and Shopping.
    • SOCIAL MEDIA ADS: Including Business Manager and Ad Manager accounts and features associated with Meta (Facebook, Instagram, Threads), TikTok, Pinterest, LinkedIn, Snapchat, TwitterX
    • STREAMING AUDIO, OOH, DISPLAY & VIDEO/OTT: You will create campaigns on self-serve streaming audio platforms such as AudioGo (Pandora) and Spotify; on streaming video and programmatic display campaigns using platforms such as Vibe, MNTN and Hulu; and on OOH platforms such as Blip.

    Across all of these platforms and ad types you will be expected to:
    • Conduct research in order to provide recommendations to current and potential clients, as well as gather information needed to properly set up campaigns. This can include budgeting, bid strategies, ad objectives, keywords, previous campaign performance, client competitor information, customer demographic, geographic and behavioral targeting.
    • Create proper campaign structures to achieve client objectives within their budgets.
    • Accurately place ads within that structure with the proper budgets, timing, creative and targeting. You will manage dozens of ongoing and time sensitive campaigns & ad groups simultaneously, so organization and attention to detail are critical.
    • Properly connect, tag, and link relevant website and e-commerce platforms in order to track the performance and effectiveness of campaigns (e.g., Google Tag Manager, Pixel Installation, Conversion APIs, Event Setups, Google Merchant Center, Attribution, Shopify, etc.)
    • Actively monitor and optimize campaigns to not only ensure the proper campaigns are running at the proper time, but that client dollars are being optimized. This includes but is not limited to adjusting budgets and bids, audience targeting, and ad testing. We do not “set it and forget it”.
    • Create and utilize reports and dashboards within the platforms themselves as well as within GA4, and Google Looker Studio to track and monitor performance, and identify opportunities to improve campaigns. If you have recommendations for other 3rd party reporting and tracking software you prefer, please let us know.
    • Promptly identify and resolve issues within client campaigns including any potential policy violations or appeals. This also includes addressing questions from clients regarding emails or phone calls they might receive from Platform Reps, or from 3rd party companies regarding their campaigns.
    • Stay up to date on new features and options within each platform. They can change frequently so this includes attending webinars, consuming articles and media, and watching tutorials to understand new opportunities, optimize campaigns and seek resolution on any outstanding issues. Presenting what you learn to the broader team is expected so we can all improve for the benefit of our clients.
    • Report regularly on campaign performance and budget spend (including analysis and recommendations) as a part of regular status meetings with the owner, and more formal reports to clients on a monthly or quarterly basis.

    QUALIFICATIONS, EXPERIENCE & REQUIREMENTS:
    • This is not a remote position. Residency in the Bloomington-Normal area is required.
    • Google Ads Certifications strongly preferred. Candidates with demonstrable expertise working in Google Ads platforms may still be considered even if certifications are incomplete. (But you'll be expected to complete your certifications immediately).
    • Minimum of 2 years’ experience working in digital advertising for businesses is strongly preferred. Campaigns are already up-and-running, and you’ll be expected to step-in and know what you’re doing from day one.
    • Personal familiarity with platforms like YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, and streaming services would be helpful.
    • Other degrees, licenses, or certifications. Competency and character matter most, but a formal background in marketing, communications, or related fields would be a plus.
    • We're an intensely local company looking for reliable longevity from this position, so we welcome candidates who plan to put down roots and make the Bloomington-Normal area their home. Passion for local businesses and a familiarity with JoshuaOneNine clients will make you highly competitive.

    CRITICAL CHARACTERISTICS:
    • Attention to Detail. You are the last line of defense before anything goes public that uses actual Client dollars. If you notice the copywriter made a typo as you’re entering the Primary Text at the Ad Level, ask about it and/or fix it. If you notice a video is the wrong length or aspect ratio, or has important text covered-up by platform danger zones, bring it up.
    • Confidentiality & Trust. You will have access to multiple credit cards and paid ad accounts. Your ability to keep this information safe, confidential, and functional is the highest priority. You need to have smarts and integrity while being organized, careful, and disciplined to double check before going live.
    • Patience. You are the last stop in the workflow before paid ads go live. This means that if the copywriter, content producer, or approval process ever falls behind in its deadlines, you’ll fall behind too (through no fault of your own). But the campaign will still need to go live on the quickest timetable, so you may have to execute late or short-notice action once the work gets to your desk. Honestly, this happens rarely, but patience and understanding are still key.

    WORK ENVIRONMENT:
    JoshuaOneNine believes our clients are worth a new creation, and we're shaping a community where businesses feel local, but never small. We're a relational marketing agency that creates and distributes strong & courageous content for local brands. Internally, our Christian culture openly and unashamedly embraces Bible study and prayer. We value integrity alongside ability, and character alongside competency. In addition to putting in a productive day's work, our small company offers a platform to reflect gospel-centered values into the lives of co-workers, clients, and the community through our conduct and contributions. We want to be at the cross-section of marketing and ministry as we flex our creativity in a faith-based environment.
    • We are in a newly built-out Office featuring a recording studio, plenty of space, and great views. It's a unique spot from which you'll love to work.
    • We've always got Frostie's root beer and a White Oak craft beer on tap.
    • Our clients are outstanding, and you may find yourself occasionally taste-testing new menu items and beer, playing with toys, attending an awards gala, touring epic spaces, flying at 10,000 feet, and more.
    • You'll be part of high-profile local projects, meaning you will regularly see your hard work completed and making a difference in the market where you work and live.
    • You'll be expected to work from the company's headquarters in Downtown Bloomington with the rest of the team, where we regularly interact with clients and their staff. 

    We are an openly Christian company that has 9 minutes of team-building Bible Study every Wednesday morning, and the ideal candidate will be curious and excited to participate. We're looking to build a culture of new creations with Christ at the center. If that excites you, be strong, courageous, and take the next step forward.
