Governance & Quality Control: Maintain organized documentation, ensure all creative adheres to brand and platform standards, and support structured testing across creative, audience, and placement variables.
Additional Responsibilities. Support special projects and ad hoc tasks as assigned by your manager to meet evolving channel and business needs.
