Swell Media is looking for a rare type of retail commerce and Retail Media Networks (RMN) leader.
Someone who doesn’t need platform reps to tell them what to do. Someone who understands not just what to do across major marketplace algorithms and retail media platforms, but why it works, when it works, and how to adapt when retail dynamics shift.
Brands look to you to help them with their retail strategy, content, and marketing plan execution.
The person we’re looking for has spent 10+ years deep in the trenches scaling brands across 3rd party marketplaces like Amazon, as well as traditional retail ecommerce powerhouses like Walmart, Target, Kroger, and Home Depot. You’ve managed accounts where millions of dollars in inventory and ad spend are on the line. You’ve navigated 1P vendor relationships, 3P seller environments, shifting retail algorithms, and crowded ad auctions, and you’ve figured out how to win anyway.
You’ll join an integral, seasoned team that has partnered with 100+ brands and maintains a vibrant roster of active clients. This is a focused, hands-on group of ad professionals, retail commerce specialists, and project managers. As part of Swell’s broader Digital Marketing group, you will also collaborate directly with our team handling DTC, Social Media, and overall go-to-market strategies.
You’re equal parts strategist, operator, and teacher.
People come to you when commerce growth plateaus.
Clients trust you when retail negotiations and ad efficiency get difficult.
Teams follow you because you’ve actually done the work.
This isn’t a “manage from a distance” leadership role. You’ll lead the agency’s most important retail relationships, mentor the next generation of commerce and RMN specialists, and remain deeply involved in solving the hardest retail growth challenges our clients face.
You’ll oversee strategy across complex retail environments:
You know how to connect retail media to holistic business outcomes:
You are the escalation point.
When retail performance stalls, catalog listings get suppressed, or RMN attribution gets messy, you’re the person who can diagnose the issue and build a path forward. You don’t accept “the retail platform changed” as an explanation.
Leadership
You’ll lead a hands-on team of ad professionals, retail commerce specialists, and project managers while building systems, playbooks, and training that elevate everyone around you.
We’re looking for a player-coach.
Someone who still loves opening retail consoles.
Someone who enjoys commerce audits.
Someone who gets excited about testing automation rules.
Someone who can teach.
Clients grow faster and more profitably across major retail channels.
Teams become stronger and more agile through your direct leadership.
Complex retail and marketplace problems get solved instead of explained away.
Swell expands its reputation as a premiere powerhouse in Retail Media Networks and retail commerce execution.
Who Thrives Here
Curious operators and builders who love the complexity of modern retail.
Leaders who thrive in a close-knit, hands-on team environment.
People who question "standard agency practices" and focus on net revenue.
Marketers who care more about profitable growth than just ad metrics.
Experienced strategists who still love the craft of retail media.
