The Paid Media Strategist is a hands‑on role responsible for owning the strategy, budget allocation, and performance of multi‑channel paid media programs for home services clients. Building on strong executional expertise, this role evolves beyond day‑to‑day optimization to define channel mix, forecasting, testing roadmaps, and measurement frameworks that drive efficient growth and measurable business outcomes.

The Strategist leads planning, execution, and optimization across PPC, LSA, Paid Social, You Tube, OTT, and Programmatic channels, applying data‑driven, seasonality‑ and capacity‑aware strategies to maximize ROI, lead quality, and booked revenue. This role sets CAC/CPL and marginal ROAS targets, governs tracking and attribution (GA4/GTM, offline conversions), and partners with operations to integrate field management systems (e.g., Service Titan, Field Edge) into reporting and optimization.

Success is measured by full‑funnel performance, revenue impact, and the ability to translate paid media insights into scalable growth strategies.
