    01 THE JOB At World Vision USA we invite people to positively impact the lives of the world's most vulnerable children through charitable giving. Our recipe includes love of all people, thriftiness, and targeting the root causes of poverty to bring about human transformation and fullness of life. With us every 60 seconds a family gets water, a hungry child is fed, and a family gets the tools to overcome poverty. As SENIOR DIGITAL MARKETING MANAGER your cross-functional advertising expertise will be brought to bear on work that is close to the heart of God (in the spirit of Matthew 25:34-40). Look no further to connect your passion to life-changing work with impact. Report to the Director of Digital Marketing and be an integral member of our 5-person shop that sits within the larger Digital Services group which includes digital experience and design, digital product management, social, content, web development/delivery, and other technology teams. Not to mention other close collaborators in our internal creative agency and other segment, product, and channel marketing teams. Your role will be focused on paid advertising across all channels (primarily digital) and includes guiding the external agency in the tactical execution of our strategy, and vetting media opportunities that come our way for potential ROI. Being a deft collaborator across the team and larger org is central to your success. Be a catalyst for identifying and growing new and existing audiences in our core segments who in turn move the needle across the donor journey, beginning with brand and cause awareness. Help us realize continuous YOY growth of our donor portfolio size leading to increased revenue and broader impact for our ministry. Integrated marketing campaigns make for an exceptional donor experience, so you’ll collaboratively work across our broader marketing ecosystem to strengthen our muscle for executing cross-channel campaigns that perform optimally. You’ll be joining the organization that flipped the script on child sponsorship with the introduction of Chosen®, recognized by AdWeek, MediaPost, Upworthy, Christianity Today, and winner of two 2020 ANA REGGIE Awards. At World Vision our ultimate God-sized dream is to see more children, families, and communities affected by poverty experience the fullness of life that God intends for them all for his glory. Do you share in this dream with us and so many others? We hope so. Reach out and let us know.

(2) You run fully optimized paid efforts in-market running at efficient rates as well as develop integrated marketing plans that leverage the strengths of your colleagues and teams across paid, earned, and owned tactics. (3) You’re a catalyst for identifying and growing new and existing audiences in our core segments who in turn move the needle on metrics across the donor journey.

From this deep understanding you show up within your team and the larger organization as a polished and effective influencer where and when the work calls for it. (5) You have a desire and commitment to approach paid opportunities from a brand and audience building perspective. (6) You’re found to have a consumer-centric mindset that lends itself to a bigger picture perspective of your work and how it fits into end-to-end customer journeys in digital and beyond. Your individual work is stronger because of this and you become a key contributor in helping us to run successful campaigns vertically and horizontally across multiple channels and mediums.
