We destroy convention to create demand. space150 is looking for a Senior Media Planner to help us maintain and grow our position as a future-forward integrated media team by leading planning for a client roster that spans regulated med-tech, DTC e-commerce, and national consumer brands. You'll work with senior media leaders to shape media strategies, own tactical media planning, present to clients, own platform execution and media reporting, and collaborate with media and cross-functional team members.\nWe're looking for someone whose thinking doesn't stop at the flowchart. The best media programs we've run were the ones where the same person understood the role of media in the client's full marketing mix, and could connect a plan to real business outcomes. If you are well on your way to building that muscle across strategy, planning, activation, and measurement, this role is designed for you.\nAnd we're looking for someone who has already rewired how they work around AI. Not \"familiar with AI tools.\" We mean you reach for a model the way you reach for a spreadsheet: to pressure-test a channel mix, synthesize audience research, QA a plan before it ships, turn a messy platform export into a clean optimization read, and draft and critique your own recommendations before a client ever sees them. Media platforms are being rebuilt by these systems; the person leading our media planning should be fluent in them from the inside.\nYou'll join senior, accountable teams with media, creative, analytics, and engineering in-house at space150 and collaborate directly with clients and other partners.\nPrimary Functions\nMedia Strategy & planning\nCollaborate with senior media leads on media strategy for a portfolio of clients.\nUnderstand the role of media in each client's marketing mix and how it contributes to broader client strategy.\nLead the development of media plans end to end: audience, channel mix, tactical details, budget allocation, creative spec and best practices, etc.\nStay plugged in, from broad industry trends to platform-level changes. \nActivation & optimization\nExecute media plans while understanding the impact on the overall media mix. Track the rapidly changing channel opportunities and settings. Follow and influence our rigorous activation and ongoing QA process. \nBe performance obsessed - strategically recommend budget shifts and channel optimizations that serve business objectives. \nPartner closely with analytics teams to ensure measurement is set up and flowing correctly.\nMeasurement & reporting\nContribute to media measurement & testing strategy for your clients.\nBuild reporting and recommendations that connect media to measurement strategy.\nBring honest reads to the work, including what didn't perform and what we'd change.\nWorking with AI\nUse frontier AI platforms as core daily infrastructure. We're deep users of Claude and Claude Code, Gemini, and the OpenAI stack, and we're deliberately platform-agnostic, we care far less about which model you prefer than about what you've gotten it to do.\nBuild your own shortcuts. Plan QA, pacing checks, platform data pulls, competitive tracking, audience synthesis, report drafts: if it's repetitive, we expect you to automate it rather than budget hours for it.\nVerify relentlessly. You know where these systems hallucinate, you verify numbers, and you never put a figure in front of a client you can't trace back to source and explain confidently.\nRaise the floor for the team. Share prompts, workflows, and tools you build internally. Help set the standard for how AI is used responsibly across client work, including where client data and regulated content mean it can't be used at all.\nTeam leadership & mentorship\nCoach and mentor associate and junior planners, guide their workflow, and help prioritize work for the team.\nKeep internal & client teams looped in and accountable for deliverables that impact media so they meet deadlines.\nBuild, direct, and seek internal feedback on client deliverables including presentations, reports, and recommendations.\nClient leadership & new business\nTake and own leadership of client projects within the agency and communicate clearly and proactively with clients and internal teams.\nServe as a media voice in client meetings. Present plans, defend recommendations, and handle pushback with credibility.\nContribute to pitches, RFP responses, and scoping.\nRequirements\n3+years of media planning experience, with a meaningful share of that in an agency or multi-brand environment.\nMedia: growing expertise in 2 or more digital media channels with a strong understanding of traditional media planning and buying.\nPlatforms: hands-on Meta and Google Ads strongly preferred, experience with TikTok, Programmatic, and direct partnerships a bonus.\nResearch & measurement: comfortable with syndicated research tools (MRI-Simmons or similar), GA4, and platform reporting; bonus for Supermetrics, Data Studio, PowerBI, etc.\nRegulated categories are a big plus: experience planning in healthcare or med-tech, including HIPAA-aware targeting and measurement.\nCommunication: excellent written and verbal skills, and able to produce precise, accurate, high-quality documents on time.\nLeadership: able to facilitate team problem solving with a positive attitude, respond well in high-pressure situations, and interface effectively with all levels of internal teams and external partners.\nSelf-starter who is results and goal oriented, value oriented, and brings a high degree of integrity and attention to detail.\nBenefits\nAt space150, we are committed to pay transparency and equity in accordance with applicable laws. The salary range for this position is $65,000 - $75,000 annually. The salary range for this role is based on numerous factors including experience, skills, and qualifications.\nIn addition to base compensation, space150 offers a competitive benefits package, including:\nComprehensive health, dental, and vision insurance\n401(k) with company match\nUnlimited paid time off, including generous vacation\nLife Insurance (basic, voluntary & AD&D)\nFamily Leave (parental leave)\nShort & Long Term Disability\nHybrid Work Environment (Tuesdays & Thursdays in office)","description_format":"text","description_chars":6340,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["Equity","Generous vacation","Hybrid work","Life insurance","Parental leave","Vision insurance"],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"United States","iso":"US","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Design & Creative","Media & Entertainment","Creative Agencies"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-14T23:13:39Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":40,"band":"fade","label":"Fading","p_open":1,"p_active":0.736,"p_room":0.55,"age_days":43,"expected_fill_days":30,"reasons":["conf:2","win:tail"],"computed_at":"2026-11-12T10:38:37Z"},"pay":{"stated_usd_annual":75000,"is_top_pay":false},"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/space150-senior-media-planner","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/space150-senior-media-planner.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-13T15:06:53Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":30374,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-14T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.1,"usd":0.01,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":450047},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=450047"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fspace150-senior-media-planner"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"free","price":{"credits":0,"usd":0},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fspace150-senior-media-planner"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.1,"usd":0.01},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fspace150-senior-media-planner"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/space150-senior-media-planner\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fspace150-senior-media-planner"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":2572258}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"space150.com","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":2572258},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
