An analytical mindset combined with that spark of creativity that pushes critical thinking to the next level is the perfect mix to be successful on our Native advertising team at System1. If you like working with fun and interesting content, partnering with editorial specialists to discover new audiences, and driving data-based campaigns to their full potential, you will find this role satisfying and rewarding. 

Howstuffworks.com is one of our most successful owned and operated sites, where we’ve cultivated a robust quiz engagement business, but we know we can be doing more to better target audiences and drive long-term engagement. We’ve recently invested in the exploration of Snapchat, and discovered that our quizzes are incredibly popular among the platform’s audiences. 

Now you come in....we’ve seen the potential for this platform to take our quiz business to the next level, and as we complement that development with new initiatives toward gamification and audience retention, you will ensure that our campaigns are running successfully on a network that you will own exclusively. Take a look at some of the key day-to-day contributions you can expect to make, and let us know if you’re up for the challenge.
