Who is Prosek?

We are entrepreneurial. Prosek is one of the largest independent communications and marketing firms in the U.S., with offices and strategic partners across the country and worldwide. We are specialized. Prosek provides unparalleled expertise with financial and professional services companies. We are people-centric. Our teams work together in a collegial atmosphere that breeds professional respect and friendship. We are award-winning. Join an "Army of Entrepreneurs" that was recently named 2023 Global Financial Agency of the Year by PRovoke Media. 

The Paid Media Planning and Account Strategy Lead will play a critical leadership role on the paid media team and across the organization. As we continue to expand our paid media business, we are looking for someone who is well versed in account management, media planning and strategy to deliver high quality outcomes for our financial and professional services clients.

In this role, you are expected to have the skills and behaviors needed to up-level client work, build culture and drive growth for the firm.

At Prosek, everyone is expected to be a strong team player, participating in brainstorming and creative strategy planning for clients and internal projects. Our culture is built around being an "Army of Entrepreneurs," and we encourage everyone to embrace that and be the "writer of their own story."
