Senior Manager, Paid Media (AI-First)

Responsibilities

• Diagnose each client's paid program; set baselines and targets (CAC, ROAS, CPL, qualified pipeline, revenue) and own the plan.
• Run and optimize accounts across Google, Meta, LinkedIn, TikTok, and programmatic within approved budgets.
• Ship test cycles fast: from idea to first readout in under five working days.
• Run an account health + QA agent on every account: weekly pacing, anomaly flags (spend spikes, broken tracking, disapprovals), and next-test recommendations.
• Run AI creative iteration: generate ad and landing-page variants, test them, and keep a human brand and claims check before anything goes live.
• Lead client strategy calls and bring proactive recommendations every month.
• Report monthly in terms a GM would use: spend tied to pipeline and revenue, with baselines.
• Write runbooks so the work does not depend on you being at the keyboard.

Requirements

• Evidence we want to see
• About 5+ years in digital paid media, currently at Senior Manager, Associate Director, Director, or Head scope, and still running accounts yourself, with spend scale.
• One paid result with the metric, baseline, period, and how you attributed it.
• One AI workflow or agent you built that removed real paid production work, and what it changed.
• AI fluency you can show: the workflow's inputs, outputs, and controls, and how you check agent or platform-automation output before it touches spend.
• Client-facing strategy: examples where you set the plan, not just executed tickets.
• Location: Full-time, remote (United States or Latin America; at least 4 hours of US overlap; professional English)
• You should be an advanced AI user. The platforms already run on automation (Performance Max, Meta Advantage+, smart bidding); you know when to trust it and when to override it.
• Not a people-manager seat.

Preferred

• Ideal: growth/performance agency, B2B SaaS lead gen, or multi-client experience.
• Steady tenure; internal promotions are a big plus (same company counts fully).

Benefits

• Medical, dental, and vision; life insurance; 401(k) with 4% match; unlimited PTO; monthly UberEats; MacBook; home-office stipend/setup. Subject to plan terms and eligibility.
