\n

\n

What You'll Do

\n
    \n
  • Take the wheel on paid social and search campaigns for a small portfolio of clients
  • \n
  • Develop strategies that align with business goals, and set (and hit!) meaningful KPIs
  • \n
  • Optimize budgets while maintaining or improving performance
  • \n
  • Test, learn, and iterate to keep campaigns getting better
  • \n
  • Turn data into clear reports that tell the story behind the numbers
  • \n
  • Partner with our media team, creative team, and third-party vendors
  • \n
\n

\n

What We're Looking For

\n
    \n
  • 2-4 years of agency experience
  • \n
  • Hands-on expertise with Meta Ads and Google Ads, with LinkedIn, Snapchat, and TikTok a plus
  • \n
  • Strong grasp of audience targeting, A/B testing, and campaign optimization
  • \n
  • Proficiency with Google Analytics and attribution tools
  • \n
  • Confidence engaging with executive-level stakeholders and supporting client conversations
  • \n
  • Organized, detail-oriented, and able to juggle multiple campaigns independently while supporting the larger team
  • \n
  • E-commerce experience is a plus (especially in beauty space), and a marketing degree is preferred, though we value experience too
  • \n
\n

\n
