Media Consultant Manager

This full-time Media Consultant Manager role is responsible for leading digital advertising work from media strategy and planning through campaign operation, data analysis and improvement proposals. The role covers media selection, targeting design, simulations, delivery monitoring, analysis of results and contributing factors, countermeasures, reporting, and coordination with media companies and internal members. It also provides data insights and proposals to the creative planning team, reviews completed initiatives, proposes future directions, and prepares sales plans.

The manager candidate will help maximize the performance of the media consultant team through management, member development, goal setting and evaluations. The role is expected to investigate why results occurred rather than only operate advertising interfaces, and to build repeatable rules for improving advertising effectiveness.

Required experience includes at least two years of practical operation and planning experience on major platforms such as Google, Meta and Yahoo!. Candidates must also have led advertising work for monthly budgets of at least several tens of millions of yen, consistently covering strategy design, execution and improvement proposals, as well as experience managing three or more people.

Preferred experience includes working with creative directors or planners on upstream creative planning and composition; integrated media planning based on client business KPIs and business issues; involvement in, or a strong interest in, automation tools and product development for advertising operations; and supporting the direct-response business of national clients or large growth companies. The profile also calls for keeping up with current algorithms and trends, continuing practical improvement, building team-based operating systems rather than relying on individuals, and establishing trusted relationships with clients and internal members.

Remote work is permitted one day per week.
