Job Description
Cumulus Media is one of the largest media companies in the world, with over 400 radio stations in nearly 100 markets across the United States. Aside from being a best-in-class audio publisher, featuring your favorite radio stations, streams, podcasts, and personalities, we also offer some deeply-technical digital marketing solutions for our advertising clients. The digital arena is one of the fastest-growing parts of our business, and it's an exciting time to be a part of the rapid growth we're seeing in the space.

This role involves working with internal teams and clients to align on pre-launch objectives/KPIs while keeping an eye on campaign performance and client retention. In addition, you will be the primary trafficker for all owned and operated assets as well as responsible for the execution, trafficking, and programmatic ad buying needs associated with successful digital campaigns as needed within the ebb and flow of the monthly workflow. The ideal candidate will be extremely organized and constantly self-motivated by their responsibilities, but also able to keep an eye out for opportunities to innovate.
