Growth Marketing Manager, Paid Social

We’re Tovala, a food‑tech company reinventing home cooking to save consumers time. Through an innovative combination of hardware, software, and fresh food delivery, we make it incredibly simple for anyone to prepare and enjoy delicious, home‑cooked meals without sacrificing time to do whatever matters to them. We have separated Tovala from the busy pack of other meal delivery businesses and have amassed a loyal, rapidly growing following. Our retention, product engagement, and customer NPS are all best‑in‑class. We’ve raised over $100 mm from great investors such as Left Lane Capital, Origin Ventures, Y Combinator, and Comcast Ventures and are building a unique culture that fosters growth, personal development, and camaraderie. At Tovala, we’re looking for a Growth Marketing Manager to drive customer acquisition on Meta, our largest paid‑social channel. This is a hands‑on, keyboard role where you will build campaigns, test audiences, and optimize spend to hit aggressive acquisition targets. You won’t just execute; you will bring your own perspective on what works, what doesn’t, and where the next opportunity lies. You’ll collaborate with our creative team to brief winning concepts and with our analytics infrastructure to understand true performance. If you live inside Meta Ads Manager, have strong data‑backed opinions, and want real ownership over a meaningful budget, we want to talk to you. How you’ll spend your time: Building, managing, and scaling Meta campaigns end‑to‑end, from account structure and audience strategy to bid optimization and budget allocation. Running a structured weekly testing cadence across creative, audiences, and placements to continuously improve performance. Briefing the in‑house creative team on what’s resonating in‑market, writing short creative briefs, and helping source new assets economically. Analyzing campaign performance data to surface trends, form hypotheses, and make budget recommendations to hit acquisition targets. Working within our internal attribution system to understand true channel performance beyond platform‑reported metrics. Identifying opportunities to improve conversion rates across the customer acquisition funnel. Communicating performance results and strategic recommendations to your manager and key stakeholders. Staying current on Meta platform changes, algorithm updates, and emerging best practices. Exploring expansion opportunities into additional paid‑social and digital channels (e.g., TikTok, Applovin, Reddit) as the role evolves. About you: 3–5 years of hands‑on experience managing Meta ad campaigns at significant monthly spend levels. Expertise in Meta Ads, including campaign structure, audience building, bidding strategies, and creative testing frameworks. Experience understanding and pivoting strategy as needed with algorithm changes (e.g., Andromeda update). Understanding of how creative drives performance on Meta, with the ability to identify what works and translate that into clear briefs for a creative team. Comfortable with marketing analytics, attribution models, and evaluating performance beyond last‑click or platform‑reported metrics. A bias toward action and ownership. You don’t wait to be told what to test or where to optimize. Strong analytical skills with the ability to turn data into clear recommendations. Experience in DTC or subscription is a major plus. Agency or in‑house background both welcome. Compensation & Benefits: Salary determined by market data, geography, and internal placement. Real ownership in the company through a competitive equity package. Flexible paid time off (minimum 15 days encouraged). Comprehensive healthcare coverage. 401(k) with match. Free Tovala Smart Oven and discounted Tovala meals. Paid holidays and a winter holiday office shutdown (one week around Christmas and New Years). Recognition programs, continued learning stipend, casual dress code, in‑office coffee, snacks and drinks, and Tovala swag. Our Values: > Put the Team First: We put what is best for the broader team ahead of what is best for ourselves or our immediate department. > Get S#!t Done (Well): We celebrate people at all levels for delivering high‑impact work that expands the bounds of what we’re able to do. > Connect the Dots: We engage with curiosity to learn how our work impacts others so that we can problem‑solve holistically and work collaboratively. > Be Direct: We share our perspective openly and directly, even when it feels difficult to do so. > Embrace the Obstacles: We rise to meet challenges with a sense of urgency, resolve, and optimism. > Champion the Customer: We consider and prioritize our customer in all of our decisions. At Tovala we’re committed to building a workplace that represents a variety of backgrounds, skills, and perspectives and do not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, color, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status, veteran status, or disability status. Everyone is welcome here! Salary: 105,000 – 135,000 USD a year. #J-18808-Ljbffr
