Media Strategist Supervisor

TRG’s Strategy Collective brings five disciplines together under a singular vision:
We never waste the opportunity to make a lasting memory. With nearly 50 years of expertise in building some of the world’s most iconic brands, we understand the power of attention, emotion, and memory to grow brands over the short and long terms. Evidence-based marketing is woven into every decision we make, and marketing effectiveness principles are foundational to our teams, technologies, and techniques.

As a media supervisor, you’ll play a key role in this vision by driving mental availability as part of a modern marketing mix. You’ll work alongside senior leaders across brand strategy, connections strategy, media, analytics, and brand performance marketing, contributing to both internal initiatives and high-impact client work as a valued member of the Strategy Collective. You’ll receive comprehensive training in evidence-based marketing and help shape how we apply those principles to our programmatic marketing services.
