About the Role

Responsibilities

Own paid media strategy and performance across Google, Meta, and TikTok, with a mandate to stand up new channels (starting with Reddit)

Drive daily, weekly, and monthly performance reviews — monitoring trends and translating them into next-step actions

Meet weekly with leadership on performance, priorities, and next steps

Deep, hands-on expertise in Google Ads and Meta Ads — able to speak fluently to platform mechanics, auction dynamics, and recent platform changes (e.g., bidding/budget updates, creative/algorithm shifts)

Track record of standing up new advertising channels from scratch, with the ability to walk through that process in detail

Ecommerce background required — directexperiencemarketing physical or digital products (not services-only)

In-house/client-side background preferred — agency-only experience is not a fit

Strategic mindset — comfortable setting full-funnel direction, not just executing tactical optimizations
