About the Company:

Live Comfortably is a growing consumer bedding company with a portfolio of licensed and owned brands including Serta, Protect-A-Bed, Restful Nights, Downlite, and Good Housekeeping. We sell across Amazon, Walmart, Target, and our own DTC sites and are building a more aggressive, full-funnel go-to-market strategy.

Overview:

The Retail Media & Advertising Senior Manager sits at the center of this effort, serving as the bridge between our agency partners and the business. This role owns the orchestration, performance accountability, and strategic direction of retail media and paid digital advertising across marketplaces and DTC.

  • Own day-to-day management of retail media and paid digital agency partners, including PacVue (Amazon), BlueWheel (DTC paid media), and additional agencies as the portfolio grows

• Amazon advertising oversight
  • Partner with PacVue on full-funnel Amazon advertising across Sponsored Products, Sponsored Brands, DSP, AMC, and tentpole events

• Omnichannel and retail media expansion
  • Manage advertising efforts across Walmart Connect, Target’s retail media network, and other emerging or pureplay channels
  • Evaluate agency-managed services and, in select cases, perform hands-on optimization for smaller or test-and-learn accounts (e.g., Wayfair)
• Budget ownership and investment strategy
  • Own the advertising budget across channels, tracking spend versus plan
  • Provide clear recommendations on where incremental investment should be scaled or reallocated based on performance
• Social media oversight
  • Oversee organic social media strategy and execution, including LinkedIn for brand building
  • Ensure quality, consistency, and alignment through development and management of a content calendar

  • Actively coordinate across PacVue, BlueWheel, and internal tools to ensure shared audiences, creativity, timing, and insights are connected
