Integrated Media Supervisor Job at The James Agency in Phoenix

The James Agency, Phoenix, AZ, United States


We’re looking for an Integrated Media Supervisor who can bridge strategy and execution across digital and traditional channels. This role will lead day‑to‑day planning, buying, and optimization while helping shape the agency’s overall media approach. You’ll manage campaigns across broadcast, OOH, print, streaming, programmatic, social, and search, ensuring every dollar works harder and connects back to the client’s business goals.

You’ll be both a strategic thinker and a hands‑on doer who can build a plan, sell it in, buy it, and prove it worked. You’ll collaborate closely with our creative, account, and media teams, as well as manage and mentor our Media Buyer/Planner.

Responsibilities

Develop integrated media strategies and plans across traditional and digital channels

Lead vendor negotiations and manage media buys for OOH, radio, broadcast, and digital platforms

Oversee campaign setup, pacing, optimization, and reporting in partnership with Pathlabs

Translate research and data (Scarborough, GWI, Pathlabs, Google, Meta, etc.) into actionable insights

Craft client‑ready rationale decks and media POVs that clearly connect media to business outcomes

Collaborate with creative and account teams to ensure alignment from concept through launch

Manage and mentor the Media Buyer/Planner to ensure high‑quality execution and professional growth

Maintain strong vendor and platform relationships to keep TJA ahead of emerging media trends

Present plans and performance recaps directly to clients when needed

Requirements

6–10 years of experience in media planning and buying (agency experience required)

Strong understanding of both traditional (OOH, radio, TV, print) and digital (paid social, search, programmatic) media

Ability to translate data into stories. You understand CPMs, CPAs, and ROAS but can explain them in simpler terms

Strong negotiation skills and vendor management experience

Comfort with analytics and reporting tools; Pathlabs or similar platforms a plus

A proactive, collaborative, solution‑oriented mindset

Excellent communication and presentation skills
