Job Description

Responsibilities

  • Full P&L accountability for DTC new customer revenue on Meta
  • Daily pacing, budget allocation, bid strategy, audience testing, and campaign restructuring

  • Kill rules, testing budgets, and scaling rules documented and enforced

  • Own Google Ads, TikTok Ads, AppLovin, and Snapchat Ads as supporting channels
  • Set channel budgets and targets quarterly. Optimize each channel against its own ncROAS target.
  • Decide when to hold vs. scale vs. cut a channel based on unit economics, not vanity
  • Lead the creative strategist team and editor bench. Set output SLAs per role.

Requirements

  • You have personally managed $50K+/day Meta spend on a single brand as an employee
  • You live in Ads Manager. Your daily pulse on the account is muscle memory, not a weekly report.
  • You have a kill rule for losing ads and you stick to it
  • You have scaled from $10K a day to $50K a day and you know exactly what breaks at each level
  • You know the current Meta platform inside and out: Advantage Plus, campaign consolidation, budget optimization, audience strategy
  • You understand that CAC is not a constraint to protect, it is an output you can raise. You know how to work with retention and CRO teams to move CAC ceilings up.
  • Creative volume is your weapon. You know that a brilliant hook or angle can unlock more than a thousand new ad variants.
  • You do not rely on agencies to do the thinking for you
  • You ship imperfect ads on Thursday over perfect ads next Tuesday
  • You speak in specific numbers unprompted. CAC, ncROAS, spend levels, hit rates. No generalities.
  • You are data-focused. You make calls off the numbers, not off opinion or ego.
