  • Manage advertising budgets effectively, ensuring efficient allocation of spend across campaigns.
  • Perform A/B testing on ad creatives, copy, audiences, and landing pages to improve campaign performance.
  • Analyze campaign data and prepare actionable performance reports.
  • Collaborate with creative, marketing, and sales teams to develop high-performing advertising campaigns.
  • Identify opportunities to scale successful campaigns while maintaining profitability.
  • Stay updated on advertising platform changes, emerging trends, and industry best practices.

Requirements

  • 3+ years of professional experience in media buying, paid advertising, or performance marketing.
  • Proven experience managing and optimizing paid campaigns with measurable results.
  • Strong proficiency in Meta Ads Manager and/or Google Ads.
  • Solid understanding of digital advertising metrics, attribution, conversion tracking, and campaign optimization.
  • Experience managing advertising budgets and making data-driven decisions.
  • Strong analytical skills and the ability to interpret campaign performance data.
  • Experience with tracking and analytics tools such as Google Analytics 4 (GA4), Google Tag Manager, and Meta Pixel.
  • Excellent communication, organization, and time management skills.
  • Ability to work independently in a fast-paced remote environment.
  • Strong written and spoken English communication skills.

Nice to Have

  • Previous experience working at a digital marketing agency, advertising agency, or performance marketing agency.
  • Experience managing paid advertising campaigns for multiple clients or brands simultaneously.
  • Experience with additional advertising platforms such as TikTok Ads, LinkedIn Ads, or YouTube Ads.
  • Familiarity with CRM systems, marketing automation, and conversion rate optimization (CRO).
  • Experience working with international clients, particularly in the UK, US, or Australian markets.
