Digital Advertising Associate

At Anne Lewis Strategies, LLC, a strategic online communications consulting firm in Washington, D.C., we work with some of the nation’s leading Democratic and progressive campaigns.

We are seeking a full-time Digital Advertising Associate to help develop, execute, and optimize online advertising and acquisition for our growing client base. If you’ve seen an ad in your Facebook newsfeed or on a website and wondered why it’s there, this may be the job for you. You obsess over details and are intensely curious about how to achieve better results – and you don’t shy away from digging into data to do so.

• Helping achieve clients’ acquisition and advertising goals in the short term, with an eye toward driving long-term fundraising and engagement success;
• Researching and developing online advertising creative in conjunction with client, writing, and design teams;
• Setting up ad campaigns and targeting through ad networks such as Facebook and Google;
• Identifying and acting on opportunities to optimize performance;
• Regularly reporting on results, including presenting them to clients;
• Working with client teams to develop advertising plans and projections;
• Staying on top of the latest digital advertising trends, networks, and formats;
• Working in CRM systems such as Salsa and BSD Tools to build landing pages and perform other tasks necessary to run ads; and
• Supporting other teams, such as the technology team, as needed.

• Obsessive attention to detail and intense curiosity;
• A passion for using technology to help good causes – whether they’re nonprofits or political candidates;
• Excellent quantitative reasoning skills, proficiency using Excel, and ability to apply data to strategic decisions;
• Strong writing and editing skills;
• A comfort working with various technology platforms and HTML;
• At least 1-2 years experience, including past internships and part-time work. Experience with digital advertising on sites such as Facebook and Google is particularly appreciated, but not required;
• Ability to juggle and multitask on multiple projects in a deadline-driven environment;
• Willingness to take the initiative and use good judgment to resolve issues;
• Ability to collaborate on a team both internally and externally;
• Background in digital communications, fundraising, advertising, and/or marketing is strongly preferred;
• Graphic design and website development experience is a plus.
