This is a performance-focused opportunity for an experienced Google Ads specialist with deep expertise in Demand Gen and Search campaigns.
You’ll take ownership of high-budget acquisition strategies, from campaign architecture and creative testing through optimization and scaling.
The role goes beyond traditional PPC management, combining media buying, funnel strategy, audience development, and performance analytics.
You’ll work closely with creative and growth teams to turn data into compelling visual assets and profitable customer journeys.
Success will be measured through meaningful performance metrics such as CPA, ROAS, CVR, CTR, and sustainable budget growth.
The environment is fast-paced, highly autonomous, and asynchronous, with strong collaboration across US business hours.
If you thrive on experimentation, direct-response marketing, and making data-driven decisions at scale, this role offers significant ownership and impact.
Accountabilities
- Develop, launch, manage, and scale high-budget Google Demand Gen and Search campaigns, with a strong focus on profitable direct-response customer acquisition.
- Build campaign strategies around YouTube, Shorts, Discover, Gmail, and Search inventory, optimizing account structures for sustainable growth.
- Identify opportunities across search intent, customer journeys, landing pages, advertorials, and multi-step funnels to improve conversion performance.
- Coordinate with external developers and designers to brief and deliver landing pages, funnels, and advertising assets.
- Partner with creative strategists and video editors to develop high-performing visual assets, including images, carousels, videos, and Shorts.
- Develop audience and keyword architectures using search terms, lookalike segments, custom-intent audiences, and first-party data.
- Design, execute, document, and iterate rapid tests across creatives, audiences, campaigns, and funnels based on performance data.
- Manage Google Ads compliance, account health, ad disapprovals, policy issues, and appeals proactively.
- Monitor attribution and key performance indicators including CTR, CPA, CVR, and ROAS, translating findings into actionable growth recommendations.
- Manage budgets and Smart Bidding strategies, including Maximize Conversions, Target CPA, and Target ROAS, to scale spend efficiently.
- Work independently through the full growth cycle, from identifying opportunities and launching tests to optimizing results and scaling successful initiatives.
