• Turn complex data sets into compelling narratives and actionable recommendations, driving measurable results for your clients.
• Maintain deep expertise in Pinterest advertising best practices - especially lower-funnel and performance solutions - actively guiding clients on optimization strategies.
• Monitor and optimize campaigns across targeting, bidding, creative, and measurement. Deliver clear, actionable performance updates and recommendations to drive results.
• Lead client meetings end-to-end: uncover objectives and challenges, present complex solutions in an accessible way, and identify cross-sell and upsell opportunities.
• Advise key clients on holistic media strategies, including audience planning, bidding models, creative formats, attribution, and beta/alpha product testing.
• Stay informed on Pinterest ad products and features, clearly communicating their value and helping clients capitalize on new offerings. Engage internal partners as needed to resolve questions or issues.
• Use AI-driven tools and platforms to continuously monitor campaign performance, identify opportunities, and flag potential risks early for clients.
• Champion and share new AI-powered solutions and best practices across the team to drive performance and operational excellence.
• Act as a mentor and knowledge resource for peers, promoting a collaborative and high-performance team culture.

• Strong project management, communication, and relationship-building skills, with experience leading complex, multi-stakeholder initiatives.
• A collaborative team player who can work effectively with technical and non-technical partners in a fast-paced environment.
• Deep expertise in digital advertising, campaign optimization, measurement, and analytical problem-solving; hands-on knowledge of Search, Shopping, Display, and/or Social ad platforms is a plus.
• Experience working with retail and ecommerce advertisers, with an understanding of their key performance and growth drivers.
• Experience using AI-powered tools to monitor and optimize campaign performance and drive better client outcomes.
