Clutch Creative is a rapidly growing staffing agency. We support our clients by identifying unreachable talent that helps their businesses grow.

Our candidates work with us because they know we have the best opportunities available to them and will help them navigate their next career move.

We care, we're honest, and we hustle—that's what makes us Clutch. Clutch is looking for an experienced Media Buyer with TV expertise to join a fast-paced agency team supporting national brand campaigns. This hybrid role combines hands-on TV media buying with client-facing account management. If you're strategic, detail-oriented, and skilled at navigating the broadcast and cable space—this could be the role for you.

What You’ll Do:

• Lead planning, negotiation, and buying for traditional Broadcast (80%), Cable (15%), and OTT (5%) channels
• Own end-to-end campaign execution: strategy, optimization, reporting, and analysis
• Manage client communications, performance updates, and expectations
• Analyze media performance data to identify trends and optimize results
• Collaborate with internal strategy, analytics, and creative teams
• Maintain accuracy across media budgets, timelines, and deliverables
• Stay up to date on TV platform trends, rate shifts, and remnant opportunities

What You Bring:

• 3+ years of experience managing paid media campaigns focused on TV
• Strong negotiation skills and proven success buying remnant media space
• Deep understanding of key media KPIs and campaign reporting
• Detail-oriented, organized, and comfortable working independently
• Agency background a plus (but not required)

Please note: This role is TV-specific — there is no buying on digital platforms like Google, TikTok, or Meta. We’re looking for a specialist who knows the ins and outs of TV media and is passionate about making campaigns perform.
