Accountabilities

• Independently manage a portfolio of approximately 20–30 Google Ads and Microsoft Ads accounts.

• Own account strategy and execution across campaign structure, budgets, bidding, keywords, negative keywords, ad copy, and landing page recommendations.

• Optimize Google Search campaigns with a strong focus on qualified lead generation and measurable client business outcomes.

• Monitor lead volume, cost per lead, lead quality, conversion tracking, and other performance indicators proactively.

• Identify performance changes and address issues before they become client concerns.

• Conduct root-cause analysis to determine whether performance changes are driven by tracking issues, search queries, bidding, landing pages, competition, seasonality, or account changes.

• Prepare written weekly analyses and revision plans for priority accounts, clearly explaining recommended changes and expected outcomes.

• Review actual performance against previous recommendations and use the results to refine future decisions.

• Use appropriate year-over-year comparison periods to account for seasonality and distinguish meaningful trends from temporary fluctuations.

• Make informed day-to-day account decisions while escalating weekly priority-account revision plans for manager review before implementation.

• Maintain accurate documentation of account changes, decisions, rationale, and outcomes.

• Convert repeatable solutions and successful approaches into standard operating procedures.

• Share useful findings, testing ideas, and performance insights with the wider team.

• Continuously identify opportunities to improve campaign efficiency, lead quality, tracking accuracy, and client revenue contribution.

Requirements:

• 5+ years of hands-on Google Ads experience, with strong expertise in Search campaigns and lead generation.

• Demonstrated experience generating leads for local businesses, service businesses, or similar customer segments.

• Google Ads should be your primary area of specialization, with the ability to independently manage Microsoft Ads accounts.

• Proven experience managing multiple paid search accounts simultaneously, particularly in an agency or freelance environment.

• Strong analytical judgment when working with small budgets and low conversion volumes.

• Ability to determine when available evidence supports a decision and when insufficient data requires further testing or observation.

• Strong troubleshooting skills, including the ability to diagnose conversion tracking issues and investigate performance anomalies.

• Ability to learn and work effectively with new analytics, advertising, and reporting tools.

• Excellent documentation habits and the ability to clearly explain strategic decisions and recommendations.

• Strong written and verbal English skills for internal collaboration, written analysis, and occasional client communication.

• Proactive and ownership-oriented approach, with the ability to identify issues, raise concerns early, and act without waiting for a detailed task list.

• Collaborative mindset and openness to feedback, experimentation, and continuous improvement.

• Availability for at least four hours of overlap with U.S. Eastern Time; the typical Ads Manager schedule is 7 AM–4 PM ET.

• Experience managing Google Ads for home-service contractors is a plus.

• Strongest consideration given to candidates with proven Search-led lead generation experience.

Benefits:

• $3,500–$4,500 per month.

• Fully remote work.

• Full-time employment.

• Performance bonuses paid in May and November, with bonuses of up to 10% of annual salary based on KPI achievement.

• 15 days of paid time off during the first year, with one additional day added for each subsequent year.

• PTO allowance includes sick and personal days and is prorated based on start date.

• Paid holidays including New Year’s Day, Good Friday, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving, Black Friday, and the Christmas Eve–New Year period.

• Company closure during the final week of the year.

• Significant autonomy and authority to manage assigned advertising accounts.
