Association of National Advertisers Director, Full Time Positions
ANA Overview
The Association of National Advertisers (ANA) is the premier advertising and marketing trade association for client-side marketers and membership consists of approx. 400 companies. ANA leads the marketing community by providing its members with insights, collaboration, and advocacy.
ANA Committees
The mission of ANA committees is to advance the marketing knowledge of ANA members, provide a forum for peer-to-peer exchange and be a collective "voice" for marketers to advocate on behalf of industry issues. ANA committees offer members the resource for sharing best practices, peer-to-peer networking / benchmarking, and the ability to learn about new industry developments through the exchange of ideas with guest speakers and fellow committee members. There are currently about 20 ANA committees which are likely to expand in 2011.
This Director, Committees position would be responsible for managing a number of these committees (perhaps 8-10 committees and running 35-40 committee meetings a year). Specific duties include programming agendas, hosting and executing meetings, driving committee membership and attendance, and leading industry initiatives. (See Committees and Community)
This is NOT a meeting planning position. Rather, the Director, Committees requires existing expertise/knowledge of multiple and diverse committee topic areas-for example, advertising production, market research, marketing procurement, digital marketing, social media, multicultural marketing, and brand management. The position would be responsible for the development of compelling content to bring to committee meetings (which are usually five hour events, from 9:30am-2:30) to engage and inspire members.
This position would also manage the content for a handful of associated conferences, related to committees (think of these conferences as committee meetings, but on a grander scale).
Further, ANA is ramping-up its online community offerings. This position will have a role in managing online groups as an extension of existing ANA committees. Responsibilities include managing discussion between committee meetings, encouraging members to post topics and content and driving membership and attendance.
This position essentially a PhD in marketing, providing the opportunity to learn about the multiple facets of advertising, media, and marketing from some of the best and brightest minds in the business.
Preferred Background
Client-side brand management or marketing services and agency-side account or media management (8-10 years experience) would be terrific backgrounds for this position as they will have provided exposure to the multiple/diverse committee topic areas and built the required subject matter expertise.
The position is located in NY (sorry, relocation costs are not covered) and will require some domestic travel, 10-15% of the time.
Please send cover letter and salary requirements to careers@ana.net.
