Senior Media Buyer

Lead Gen Team · Multiple locations · Remote ·

Job type:
Full Time

**Important to save us both time**: At the bottom of the post I put application requirements. Please read it as I don't look at Linkedin submissions.

Also, this is a remote position. We all work in Phoenix/Scottsdale so we link up to work together at coffee shops regularly, but this role is remote.

We’re hiring a hands-on Senior Media Buyer to help us grow in a fast paced environment. There's a great opportunity to make good money and be part of a solid team.

We're performance marketers, so if you like learning quickly, adapting to ai tools, and being measured by your success as performance is very black and white, this is the perfect environment.

In your role, you’ll research new angles, write direct-response scripts, guide our video editors, launch and scale campaigns, and ultimately own performance and profitability on your specified platform(s) and vertical(s).

You’ll have support from our video editors for creative production, allowing you to focus on the highest-impact scripts and angles and media-buying decisions.

This is not a standalone copywriting, video-production, or creative-strategy role. You must have experience personally buying media and scaling paid campaigns as this is where you'll spend a ton of time.

What you’ll own

Performance and growth across two to three verticals

Campaign launches, optimization, budget allocation, and scaling

Competitor, customer, market, and ad-library research

New angles, hooks, offers, and direct-response scripts

Creative briefs and collaboration with video editors

Testing plans, performance analysis, and creative iterations

The entire process from initial concept to profitable scale

You may be a strong fit if you

Have significant hands-on paid social media buying experience

Have experience with affiliate marketing or ecommerce campaigns with large budgets

Have personally launched, managed, and scaled campaigns

Can write persuasive direct-response scripts

Use performance data to determine what to test next

Have experience with Meta, YouTube, and TikTok

What we offer

Competitive base compensation

Potential for uncapped performance commission

Ownership of two to three core verticals

An established team of video editors

Significant control over creative strategy, budgets, and growth

Good work environment and lots of flexibility

What are you working on now?

What is your ecomm or affiliate experience?

What should we know about you, and why do you think you’d be a strong fit?
