You are ❌
NOT a fit if your background is only in digital content, streaming, or intangible products.

We’re partnering with a consumer products business looking for a true retail media operator
—someone who can run marketplace ads without hand-holding
, speak confidently to executives, and tie ad spend directly to margin, inventory, and profit
.

This is a hands-on IC role with agency support—but ownership stays with you.

• Full-funnel Amazon Ads (SP / SB / SD + DSP) ownership
• Expansion and optimization across Walmart Connect and Target Roundel
• Media strategy tied to sales forecasts, inventory, margins, and seasonality
• Budget setting, pacing, guardrails, and reallocations based on ROAS, TACOS, and contribution margin
• Campaign taxonomy down to ASIN / SKU level (brand, non-brand, defense, competitor)
• Scaling winners, cutting waste, and knowing why something worked (or didn’t)

• You’ll build reporting that execs actually use—not vanity dashboards
• Comfortable with AMC, Brand Analytics, Luminate
  , and native ad consoles
• Can model break-even ROAS by SKU
• Think in terms of incrementality, profitability, and in-stock realities
• Make recommendations based on facts, not guesses

• 5–7+ years of hands-on marketplace / retail media experience
• Real experience with tangible, physical products (this is non-negotiable)
• Proven success managing large SKU counts and multi-million-dollar budgets
• Strong communicator — you can explain complex performance simply and confidently
• Highly analytical, tech-savvy, and self-directed
• Comfortable influencing PDPs, creative, and merchandising without owning them

• Not a learning role
• Not brand-only strategy
• Not digital media for entertainment or content platforms
• Not a place where someone looks over your shoulder

This role is for someone who says:

“Give me the goal, the budget, and the data—and I’ll run it.”

If this sounds like you (or someone you know who’s tired of agency red tape or shallow roles),
