Paid Media Manager

We move fast. We test constantly. We never settle. If that sounds like you — keep reading. We’re looking for a scrappy, data-obsessed, and relentlessly curious Paid Media Assistant Manager who thrives in chaos, loves problem‑solving, and delivers results under pressure. This is a hands‑on role in a high‑growth startup environment where you’ll own campaigns end‑to‑end, experiment daily, and push performance beyond what’s possible.

• Manage communication between Paid Media, Creative, Analytics, and Merchandising to keep campaigns aligned and on track.
• Build clear briefs, status reports, and post-mortems that keep everyone informed and accountable.
• Proactively identify blockers, dependencies, and risks — then solve them before they slow momentum.
• Lead project check-ins, ensuring stakeholders have visibility into priorities, next steps, and resource needs.
• Drive process improvements to make campaign execution faster, smoother, and more scalable.
• Track deliverables and action items with precision — whether it’s media plans, creative assets, or reporting dashboards.

• Lead by example — set high standards for execution, ownership, and speed.
• Coach and develop junior team members through hands‑on feedback, training, and performance check‑ins.
• Foster a culture of curiosity, experimentation, and accountability across the team.
• Delegate effectively — ensuring everyone knows their lane, owns their work, and delivers on time.
• Support hiring, onboarding, and upskilling efforts to build a stronger, more agile media team.
• Provide clear direction in fast‑changing situations, helping the team prioritize and focus on what moves the needle.
• Champion collaboration and communication — breaking silos and driving alignment across departments.

• Keep campaigns flying: pacing, budgets, KPIs — all under your control.
• Move fast on optimizations. See a problem? Fix it. Find an opportunity? Jump on it.
• Pull and interpret data like a pro — find the story behind the numbers and use it to drive smarter growth.
• Build test plans, launch experiments, and iterate quickly to uncover what works (and what doesn’t).
• Stay ahead of the curve — new tools, new betas, new trends — you’ll be the one bringing them to the table.
• Mentor and coach junior teammates to level up execution and confidence.
• Collaborate with creative and strategy teams to bring bold ideas to life — and make sure they perform.

• Participate in unscheduled video calls during EST business hours
• Quickly investigate and resolve issues that adversely impact performance or cause ads to stop serving during and outside normal working hours.

• Other duties as assigned.

• Bachelor’s degree preferred
• 5+ years managing paid media campaigns hands‑on across major platforms.
