Sr. Recruitment Media Buyer (Programmatic) at The Contractor Consultants - Internal

Were looking for a part-time recruitment advertising strategist who can help us make smarter decisions about job ad spend across Indeed and a programmatic partner (Appcast, Joveo, etc.).

This is not a hands-on media buying role and not a technical build-out project.

We simply want someone who can:

• Support us with expert guidance as we evaluate and adopt a programmatic partner

• Offer strategic insights on how our budget should align with applicant flow, hiring priorities, and performance trends

• Help our team understand the why behind those recommendations

Think of this as a high-level advisor who helps our team get better results from our advertising budget and improves applicant flow for our clients.

The Contractor Consultants (TCC) is the leading outsourced hiring partner for the construction industry. We manage high-volume hiring for contractors across the U.S. and Canada, handling everything from job posting to screening and interview coordination. We support roles such as laborers, foremen, project managers, estimators, superintendents, and more.

• Advertising Strategy:
  • Provide strategic guidance on monthly job advertising budget allocation
    
  • Analyze performance by role, market, and source to explain where higher or lower ad spend is required and why (e.g., location competitiveness, role scarcity, conversion rates).
  • Advise on how to improve apply volume, cost-per-apply, and overall funnel health.

• Programmatic Guidance:
• Understand the strengths and differences between programmatic partners
  
• Learn how to use the platform correctly in our day-to-day workflow so we maintain steady applicant flow and get the most efficiency from our job ad spend
  
• Know what to look for inside the tool (performance trends, warning signs, opportunities, etc.)
  
• Build clarity on how often we should review roles, what metrics matter most, and how to interpret them
  
• Learn how programmatic tools make decisions so we know what to expect and how to respond
  
  
No tech build-out. No engineering. Just advice and direction.


Performance Review:
• Meet weekly at first (then bi-weekly) to walk through:
  • spend levels
    
  • applicant volume
    
  • cost-per-apply
    
  • which jobs are struggling
    
    
• Break down what the data means and what actions we should take
  
• Help us keep the applicant pipeline full and predictable
