Reputation Marketing & Insights (RMI) is hiring a Media Manager to develop and execute paid media campaigns to educate key audiences about important public affairs issues relevant to Amazon’s brand. The individual selected for this position will support paid advertising programs with global impact within Amazon’s Communications and Corporate Responsibility organization. The work will challenge you to be resourceful, think big while staying connected to the details, produce data-driven insights and recommendations, and embrace a high degree of change and ambiguity at speed.

Key job responsibilities
Working with research, creative, measurement, and public policy teams — as well as external agency partners — you will manage holistic media planning and execution for several key global reputation initiatives per year based on real-time business needs, reporting to the Senior Manager of Media & Measurement. You will independently manage day-to-day campaign operations and optimizations (via agency partners), while collaborating with leadership and cross-functional stakeholders on strategic direction. You will balance competing priorities such as speed-to-market vs. sophistication, or reach vs. frequency goals. You will deploy your understanding of paid media and your knowledge and curiosity of the public affairs landscape to build media plans, identify key optimizations, and ensure that campaigns deliver on their objectives. You will be accountable for campaign performance metrics including awareness lift, message association, and cost efficiency. You will identify opportunities to create scalable processes and best practices for reputation marketing campaigns. You will help develop mechanisms to measure and communicate campaign effectiveness to senior stakeholders. This role offers a unique opportunity to shape how we use paid media to build trust and communicate on critical issues, while developing expertise at the intersection of corporate communications and digital marketing.

As a Media Manager, you will:

Write comprehensive media briefs that align public affairs objectives with marketing strategies (e.g., economic impact, small business, technological innovation, customer experience)

Oversee agency partners' day-to-day campaign management

Collaborate with internal partners (e.g., research, creative, measurement, and public policy counterparts) to develop campaign strategies that educate and build trust with key global audiences

Interpret insights from data in ways that can be actioned quickly and nimbly

Educate internal and external stakeholders of varying technological and marketing backgrounds about paid marketing strategies and tactics
