It’s the start of a solid, upwardly-mobile career in media planning and strategy.

Typically, people who are successful in this position have completed their undergraduate degree at a top university, acquired solid Excel analytical skills, and have shown leadership in projects that required fast learning and outstanding results.

Some of the things you’ll do on the job include–

• Researching new digital media networks and third party data sources
• Managing budgets and tracking media placements
• Tracking hundreds of creative assets and ensuring they’re being deployed in the right place at the right time
• Analyzing data in Excel and other platforms to bring patterns and insights to light
• Monitoring ongoing marketing campaigns and making recommendations for optimizing our spending

• Excellent spoken and written English-language skills at the C1-C2 level
• Strong desire to learn the advertising business
• Of course, if you’re into video games, that’s helpful as well!

Your qualities and attributes

• Attention to detail: Prioritize accuracy and precision in media planning, budgeting, and campaign execution to maximize campaign effectiveness. You are not a spot checker; you are thorough and know where to look to find the most common errors.
• Problem-solving: Demonstrate resourcefulness in identifying and resolving challenges during media planning, buying, and activation. Employ a strategic and creative mindset to find efficient solutions without wasting time or energy.
• Collaboration and teamwork: Thrive in a collaborative environment that values open communication and shared decision-making with colleagues. Demonstrate a willingness to accept and apply feedback constructively to your work.

Our stance

Liquid is committed to creating an anti-racist environment. We’re building an ad agency where committed and creative people from all backgrounds can do their best work.

No agencies, please. This is a pretty good representation of this position’s responsibilities but is not a comprehensive job description. Duties, clients, and team assignments may change as assigned. We regret we cannot consider applicants outside of Mexico or those requiring visa sponsorship at this time.
