They work for companies, agencies, and e-commerce. The role suits analytical, results-obsessed, methodical people who live in the data, can set up and optimise campaigns rigorously, test and iterate constantly, and combine marketing instinct with the quantitative discipline to squeeze the most measurable value from every advertising dollar.
