About The Position

Level Agency — now strengthened by our recent acquisition of BAM Strategy, a digital experience and loyalty leader — is hiring a Media Director to lead, elevate, and accelerate media strategy for top-tier clients across performance and lifecycle disciplines. This is a rare opportunity to lead a high-performing team, define cutting-edge paid media strategies, and help brands win in an increasingly complex digital ecosystem. If you thrive on data, love turning insight into action, and get energized by coaching teams to do their best work — this is your moment. Level is an AI-powered performance marketing agency — built for precision, designed to scale, and driven by results. In 2025, Level acquired BAM Strategy, combining Level’s strengths in media, analytics, and machine intelligence with BAM’s expertise in digital experience, CRM, personalization, and loyalty strategy. Together, we support 150+ clients across B2B tech, ecommerce, education, healthcare, CPG, and more. Our 250-person team operates fully remote across North America, bringing deep expertise in performance media and full-funnel customer growth. In this role, you will operate at the intersection of Level’s media muscle and BAM’s customer-lifecycle strengths — helping clients not only reach audiences, but engage, convert, and keep them. As Media Director, you will lead strategic planning, execution, and optimization of performance media campaigns across search, social, programmatic, and emerging channels. You’ll own media strategy for a dedicated client portfolio, lead and mentor a team, and partner cross-functionally to deliver measurable business results.
