Job Summary

Drive paid performance across DTC channels while building an in-house team and ensuring profitable, data-backed decisions.

  • Own and optimize strategies across Marketplace Media, Dotcom Media, Affiliate, and Partnerships.
  • Must-have: 8–12+ years in performance marketing with senior-level experience.
  • Standout: P&L ownership with SKU-level profitability visibility and incremental attribution focus.

Job Description

Responsibilities

  • Define paid performance strategies across all active channels — Marketplace Media, Dotcom Media, Affiliate, and Partnerships — with a clear view of how each channel contributes to overall DTC goals.
  • Explore emerging and inactive channels (TikTok, Reddit, StackAdapt, Criteo), build data-backed cases for activation or deprioritization, and bring recommendations to leadership.
  • Own budget allocation and optimization cadence across the channel portfolio, with a focus on finding and scaling the optimal channel mix.
  • Be hands-on in the platforms. You know how to build a campaign, read an auction, and pull a report yourself — and you expect the same of your team.
  • Own a tight performance marketing P&L by channel, with visibility to contribution margin at the SKU level.
  • Set and hold CAC, ROAS, and contribution targets per channel — and make real-time decisions when campaigns go off-track.
  • Partner with Finance and Ecommerce to ensure attribution models accurately reflect the business, not just platform-reported metrics.
  • Flag and resolve margin leakage proactively — whether it's an inefficient affiliate, a high-ACoS Amazon placement, or a Meta campaign dragging blended ROAS down.
  • Partner with the CMO to build an in-house performance marketing team — starting lean and scaling with the business.
  • Play an active role in defining team structure, role requirements, and the balance between in-house capability and agency support.

Requirements

  • 8–12+ years of performance marketing experience, with at least 5 years in a senior or director-level role.
  • Demonstrated success managing performance media across both DTC (Google, Meta) and marketplace (Amazon Ads, DSP) channels — ideally simultaneously.
  • Hands-on fluency in the platforms — you can build a campaign, troubleshoot a feed, and audit an account structure yourself.
  • Experience owning a P&L with SKU-level profitability visibility — not just impressions and clicks.

Preferred

  • Background in consumer electronics, accessories, or a product category with a short purchase cycle and high SKU count is a strong plus.
  • Experience managing and transitioning between in-house teams and agency models.
