We're looking for a PPC Specialist who wants to spend their day inside the platforms: Google Ads, Meta, and Microsoft Ads, managing and maintaining campaigns across a portfolio of clients. This is a technical execution role. You won't be presenting to clients or setting high-level strategy. You'll be the person who makes sure the campaigns are built right, running right, and backed by accurate data. If you do your best work when you have clear processes, defined accounts to own, and room to get things exactly right, this role is built for that.

Pulls and prepares performance reports for account executives to present to clients. Data needs to be clean, accurate, and ready to use. Partners with the creative team on ad copy and landing page needs, providing platform‑specific guidance on specs and requirements.

Monitors Google Tag Manager, conversion tracking, and analytics configurations to ensure data integrity across accounts. Stays current on platform updates, policy changes, and feature releases that affect campaign management across Google, Meta, and Microsoft. Uses AI and automation tools (Smart Bidding, Performance Max, automated rules) within defined parameters to support campaign efficiency. Knowing what the platforms are actually doing matters more than letting automation run unchecked. Uses AI tools (Claude, ChatGPT, or similar) to support daily work including drafting ad copy variations, summarizing performance data, researching industry trends, and identifying optimization opportunities. AI is a tool, not a shortcut, and output always gets reviewed before use. Stays current on how AI is changing paid media, including smart bidding behavior, automated asset generation, and audience signal changes, so account decisions are informed by what the platforms are actually doing. Escalates strategic questions, budget decisions, and performance anomalies to the Media Director with supporting data and a clear description of the issue.

Solid working knowledge of Google Ads (Search, Display, YouTube), Meta Ads Manager, and Microsoft Ads. Proficiency in Google Analytics 4, Google Tag Manager, and conversion tracking setup and QA. Strong understanding of paid media performance metrics: ROAS, CPA, CTR, CPM, Conv. Rate, impression share. Experience managing monthly budgets of $10K+ across multiple client accounts simultaneously. High attention to detail. You catch your own mistakes before anyone else does. Comfortable working within established processes and account structures. You follow the system and flag it when the system needs updating. Able to manage a high volume of accounts without losing accuracy.

A defined role with clear processes, real account ownership, and a team that values getting it right over moving fast. Room to grow your technical expertise. #J-18808-Ljbffr Leadhub
