Job Description
Commerce media is one of the fastest-growing segments in advertising, and Citi is bringing its powerful assets to launch a new media offering. With 70MM+ cardmembers, 6.5 billion annual transactions, and visibility across 700+ merchant categories, Citi has the scale, the trust, and the data infrastructure to compete at the highest level. What sets Citi apart is the depth and breadth of its view. Where retailers see spending only within their own ecosystem, Citi sees actual purchase behavior across the full customer wallet, spanning categories, merchants, and channels. That cross-wallet visibility, combined with Citi's direct relationships with tens of millions of engaged, digitally active customers, creates a compelling foundation for advertisers who want to reach high-intent audiences and measure real outcomes. We're building Citi's Commerce Media business, from the ground up, and we’re looking for a marketing execution manager who can translate client objectives into clear audience strategies and effective creative. This role focuses on defining target audience requirements, shaping briefs, and managing creative execution to ensure messaging is relevant and impactful. You’re comfortable working hands-on to refine targeting, guide asset development, and ensure campaigns are executed with precision. You take pride in delivering campaigns that perform, scales, and evolves with the market. If you've spent your career leading large-scale programmatic media teams and you're ready for the challenge of a lifetime, this is the role. Citi is evolving its current commerce offerings and branching into new avenues of growth by offering merchants access to high value cardmembers across Citi’s digital properties and partner placements. By combining Citi’s scale, trusted customer relationships, and real purchase insights, the business delivers advertising that is relevant to customers and drives measurable, incremental impact for advertisers. As a Media Lead Analyst, you will lead strategic client engagements and drive revenue growth for the business. You will identify and execute against high-value opportunities and shape the go-to-market strategy for the business and platform. This role will serve as a senior, externally facing leader for the business, owning advertiser engagement, shaping go-to-market strategy, and establishing Citi as a credible and differentiated commerce media partner with brands, agencies, and strategic partners. As Citi scales this new area, the role will also bring deep commerce media expertise to inform decisions across strategy, monetization, platform capabilities, and measurement. The role will play a central part in driving early momentum while laying the foundation for long-term, scalable growth.
