We are looking for an experienced, hands-on TikTok Performance Marketing Manager who specialises in selling physical consumer products through TikTok Shop.

Your primary responsibility is to generate profitable sales through TikTok advertising, particularly TikTok Shop GMV Max campaigns.

We are not looking for a traditional social media manager who focuses on followers, engagement or brand awareness. We want someone who understands how to convert advertising expenditure into revenue, identify winning video advertisements and scale campaigns profitably.

You will work closely with our in-house video production, influencer, affiliate and e-commerce teams to grow our skincare products in Singapore and Malaysia.

- Monitor advertising expenditure, GMV, ROI and cost per order daily.

- Identify underperforming campaigns and implement corrective actions.

- Optimise advertising expenditure according to product margins and profitability.

- Troubleshoot issues involving campaign delivery, insufficient spending, poor conversion rates and declining advertising returns.

- Manage campaigns across Singapore and Malaysia, accounting for differences in consumer behaviour and pricing.

2. Advertising Performance & Profitability

- Calculate product-level break-even ROAS based on selling price, cost of goods, platform fees, affiliate commissions and other variable costs.

- Identify which products generate the highest advertising returns.

- Recommend suitable promotional prices, product bundles and offers to improve conversion rates.

- Monitor customer acquisition costs and contribution margin after advertising.

- Distinguish between sales attributed to advertising and actual incremental sales growth.

3. Video Advertising & Creative Optimisation

- Work directly with the internal video production team to identify and develop high-converting TikTok advertisements.

- Analyse individual video performance to determine which creatives generate sales.

- Develop creative briefs covering product pain points, selling propositions, hooks, demonstrations and calls to action.

- Recommend new video concepts based on advertising performance data.

- Test different video openings, product demonstrations, offers and messaging.

- Identify creative fatigue and recommend replacement advertisements before campaign performance deteriorates.

- Work with the influencer and affiliate teams to identify high-performing creator content suitable for paid advertising.

- Ensure a consistent pipeline of new advertising creatives for testing.

4. Campaign Testing & Scaling

- Develop structured testing plans for new products, advertisements and promotional offers.

- Establish clear criteria for identifying winning and losing creatives.

- Allocate initial test budgets and determine when campaigns should be scaled, maintained or stopped.

- Conduct controlled testing where feasible to distinguish creative performance from pricing, audience and promotional effects.

- Expand successful advertising strategies across additional products.

- Identify opportunities to increase sales during major TikTok Shop campaigns and promotional periods.

- Manage advertising budgets efficiently during both regular sales periods and major shopping events.

5. Reporting & Performance Analysis

- Maintain accurate daily tracking of advertising expenditure, attributed GMV, ROAS and cost per order.

- Produce weekly reports showing performance by product, campaign and advertising creative.

- Compare actual performance against assigned revenue and profitability targets.
