Own creative strategy for paid social, including research-driven angles, briefs, testing plans, iteration priorities, and performance-based creative decision making.
Own performance against key ecommerce KPIs (CAC, NCAC, MER, AOV, conversion rate, retention) and deliver clear weekly updates, insights, and next steps.
Own spend pacing and budget management with financial rigor, including scaling decisions, efficiency guardrails, and risk management.
Own testing and experimentation across the funnel (audiences, creatives, offers, landing pages, lifecycle moments), and apply learnings to improve results.
Own paid search when required, ensuring it aligns with paid social and supports full-funnel revenue targets.
Own email marketing when required, including campaign and flow priorities that support conversion and retention goals.
Own CRO when required, including landing page and onsite conversion improvements tied to performance goals.
Contribute to broader ecommerce strategy, including product bundling, offer strategy, promotions, and merchandising inputs.
Lead attribution and reporting accuracy by ensuring tracking hygiene, UTMs, conversion events, and platform-to-Shopify reporting alignment.
Build simple forecasts and performance projections to support budget planning, scaling decisions, and revenue targets.
Contribute to UGC and creator programs by supporting creator selection and building clear creator briefs tied to performance outcomes.
Coordinate cross-functional collaborators (web developers, designers, filmmakers, content creators) to ship priorities on time and keep work aligned to performance goals.
Partner with the Group Account Director on recommendations, trade-offs, and performance narratives for clients.
Maintain documentation and repeatable processes (account structure, testing history, learnings, creative insights) so performance compounds over time.
