DealMaker is hiring: Paid Media Specialist in Los Angeles

Who You Are

You’re a performance-minded media buyer with 2–4 years of hands‑on experience running campaigns across Paid Social platforms. You’re analytical, fast‑moving, and love digging into the numbers to drive stronger results. You’re detail‑oriented when it comes to pacing, targeting, and QA — and you know that great execution is what unlocks great performance.

You collaborate well across teams, especially with creative partners, and you communicate clearly whether you’re sharing insights, flagging issues, or aligning on campaign goals. You’re naturally curious, stay up to speed on platform changes, and are always ready to test new ideas that might give your campaigns an edge.

At DealMaker, we value speed, ownership, and impact — and you do too. You take pride in helping high‑growth issuers scale their campaigns, and you’re excited to build, optimize, and learn alongside a team that’s just as driven as you are.

What You Will Do

Media Buying & Budget Management

• Plan, execute, and optimize paid media campaigns with initial focus on Paid Social channels (Meta, TikTok, LinkedIn, etc.). Google knowledge is a plus
• Own media buying across multiple accounts to ensure campaigns are on‑budget and ROAS‑positive.
• Own pacing and actively seek out opportunities to efficiently deliver planned budgets and expand on those in a ROAS‑positive way.
• Be open‑minded and stay on top of changes to ad platform features, privacy rules, and bidding strategies to test and implement innovations early.

Performance Analysis & Optimization

• Monitor campaign KPIs daily (e.g., ROAS, CAC, CTR, CPM, CVR) and make regular and real‑time optimizations to improve performance.
• Perform A/B tests across audiences, creatives, and placements to unlock performance levers and document learnings in Test Trackers.
• QA peer builds to ensure continuous improvement and growth of our media buying quality.
• Put together weekly/biweekly client and post‑campaign reporting on paid media campaigns.

Cross‑Functional Collaboration

• Partner closely with Creative and Content teams to influence and iterate on ad assets that convert.
• Provide clear performance insights to inform creative direction and messaging.
• Collaborate with Strategy, Partnership, and Operations teams to align campaign strategy with issuer goals and performance milestones.
