About the Role
We are looking for a Director of Paid Media to own and scale our paid acquisition engine across every channel where our customers spend time, from search, social, video, display, and AI-powered answer engines to direct response TV, radio, out-of-home, and print. This leader will design and execute a high-performing omnichannel strategy that propels brand growth, reaches the right audiences through personalized touchpoints and messaging, and turns engagement into profitable, long-term customer relationships.
The ideal candidate is a seasoned performance and direct response marketer who is equally comfortable optimizing a bid strategy, negotiating an OOH buy, and building a bilingual go-to-market plan for US Hispanic small business owners. You hold yourself accountable to lead quality, cost per funded deal, and return on ad spend, and you know how to balance short-term efficiency with long-term brand building.

- Partner with Sales and Underwriting to define lead quality, close the feedback loop through offline conversion imports and CRM signals, and optimize toward profitable outcomes rather than raw volume.
- Run a disciplined testing roadmap across audiences, creative, offers, bidding, and landing experiences, and scale what wins quickly.
Video, Display, Social, Search & AI/LLM Channels
- Plan and optimize video across CTV/OTT, YouTube, and social video, and display across programmatic, native, and direct publisher buys.
- Build search and social programs that capture high-intent demand and create new demand among target audiences.
- Develop the company's strategy for AI-driven discovery, including visibility in LLM-powered answer engines (ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Copilot, Google AI Overviews), emerging AI ad formats, and AI-assisted campaign tools such as Performance Max and Advantage+.
- Use AI and automation responsibly to improve targeting, creative production, bidding, and reporting efficiency.
Direct Response, OOH & Traditional Media

- Lead out-of-home strategy, including billboards, transit, digital OOH, and place-based media, in priority markets.
- Evaluate and activate print, direct mail, and community and sponsorship media where they drive measurable business results.

Multicultural Marketing & Bilingual Go-to-Market
- Build and lead bilingual (English/Spanish) go-to-market strategies for US Hispanic and Puerto Rico small business owners, including market prioritization, channel selection, and media partner strategy.

Measurement, Analytics & Budget Ownership

- Partner with Marketing Analytics and Data Science on attribution, media mix modeling, incrementality and geo-lift testing, and UTM and tracking governance.
- Deliver clear weekly and monthly performance reporting on CPL, CAC, ROAS, funded volume, and LTV-to-CAC, with recommendations for reallocation.
- Work with Compliance to make sure all media and messaging meet financial services advertising standards and platform policies.
Requirements

Media Director Jobs in Florida: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a media director in Florida?
Most media directors in Florida follow a path that begins with a bachelor's degree in advertising, communications, marketing, or media studies, followed by several years working up through media coordinator, planner, and buying roles. Florida does not require a state-issued license for this position. Employers in Miami, Orlando, and Tampa typically look for demonstrated leadership experience, a strong portfolio of integrated campaigns, and familiarity with Florida's distinctive bilingual and multicultural advertising landscape.
How much do media directors make in Florida?
Media directors in Florida earn a median of about $79,920 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $46,460 for the lowest 10% to over $164,090 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.
Which companies hire media directors in Florida?
Employers hiring media directors in Florida right now include Mia Aesthetics, Creative Owners, and ADT, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Florida's concentration of major media companies, sports franchises, tourism brands, and large healthcare systems means consistent demand for senior media leadership across both agency and in-house settings.
Which Florida cities have the most media director jobs?
Miami, Jacksonville, and Boca Raton account for the largest share of media director openings in Florida. Miami leads because of its dense advertising agency scene, major Spanish-language media houses, and international brand headquarters, while Orlando's entertainment and tourism sector and Tampa's growing corporate and healthcare base drive steady hiring in those metros.
Are there remote media director jobs in Florida?
Yes, and more than many senior marketing roles, since media planning and campaign oversight are largely desk-based and platform-driven. About 20% of media director openings tied to Florida are remote or hybrid as of November 2026, with the most remote-accessible work concentrated in digital media strategy, programmatic buying oversight, and national brand accounts where on-site presence is not required.
How can I get hired as a media director in Florida with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is through a media coordinator or media planner role at a Florida-based advertising agency or in-house marketing department, with agencies in Miami's Brickell and Wynwood corridors regularly onboarding junior talent. Building a portfolio of real or speculative integrated campaigns, earning a Google or Meta media buying certification, and targeting associate media planner roles at large Florida employers in tourism, healthcare, or entertainment creates a clear progression toward director-level positions.
Where can I find and apply to media director jobs in Florida?
