Google Media Buyer – Affiliate Marketing

Employment Type:

Full-Time / Remote

Industry:

Affiliate Marketing / Performance Marketing / DTC

About the Role
We’re looking for a data-obsessed, results-driven Google Media Buyer with deep affiliate marketing experience and a proven track record managing high-scale offers ($10K+/day per offer). If you live for ROAS, thrive on rapid testing, and know how to engineer winning campaigns at scale, this role is for you.

This is not a beginner position—you’ll be expected to hit the ground running, own your media buying pipeline, and scale campaigns that drive serious results.

Key Responsibilities

Manage and scale high-volume Google Ads campaigns (Search, Display, YouTube, Performance Max) with budgets of $10K/day+ per offer

Own all phases of campaign management: from strategy, launch, and testing to optimization and scaling

Collaborate with affiliate managers and funnel teams to align offers, landing pages, and creatives for maximum conversion

Run structured creative testing and landing page split tests to drive improvements in CTR, CVR, and AOV

Monitor performance metrics like ROAS, CPA, CTR, Quality Score, and LTV—optimize aggressively

Track and report on campaign performance using attribution tools (Voluum, RedTrack, Google Analytics, etc.)

Ensure compliance with ad policies, vertical-specific guidelines, and tracking accuracy across all campaigns

Qualifications

5+ years of experience in Google Ads with a focus on affiliate offers or DTC performance marketing

Demonstrated ability to manage $10K+ daily ad spend per offer—ideally across multiple verticals (e.g., health, beauty, finance, lifestyle)

Strong technical skills in campaign architecture, keyword strategy, bidding, and conversion tracking

Familiarity with third-party tracking platforms (Voluum, RedTrack, FunnelFlux, etc.)

Deep understanding of Google Ads policy, ad disapprovals, cloaking tools, and compliance nuances in the affiliate world

Excellent analytical skills with the ability to quickly interpret data and take decisive action

Strong communication and self-management skills; able to work independently in a fast-paced, fully remote environment

Nice to Have

Experience with pre-sell pages and advertorial funnels

Proficiency in copywriting and ad creative direction

Hands-on experience with other channels like Meta, TikTok, or native as secondary skill sets

Knowledge of affiliate networks and CPA/CPL payout models
