Mid Level Paid Media Manager Jobs

INTRODUCTION

Our client, a growing name in e-commerce is seeking a Sr. Paid Social Media Manager with E-commerce and Leadgen experience. This is a full-time opportunity that is onsite 5 days a week. We are looking for a high-impact Senior Paid Social & Performance Marketing Manager at the intersection of lead generation mastery and revenue-driven growth. This is a strategic leadership position with direct accountability for client outcomes across a portfolio of lead gen and ecommerce accounts. You own paid social performance end-to-end — strategy, budget, creative direction, analytics, and client communication — equally comfortable scaling a high-volume CPL campaign for a franchise network as you are optimizing ROAS and contribution margin for an ecommerce brand. You think like a growth operator, communicate like a strategic partner, and build the systems that make both sustainable.

ROLE AND RESPONSIBILITIES

Key Responsibilities

Strategy & Execution:

- Own full-funnel paid social strategy across lead gen (CPL/CPA) and ecommerce (ROAS/MER/AOV/LTV:CAC) accounts with diverse KPIs and business models
- Build scalable campaign frameworks deployable across accounts; oversee budget allocation across Meta, TikTok, LinkedIn, Reddit, Pinterest, and emerging platforms
- Scale ecommerce accounts through creative velocity, offer alignment, and product-level optimization; scale lead gen accounts through funnel efficiency and audience expansion
- Establish forecasting models and budget plans tied to lead-gen goals and ecommerce revenue targets

Analytics, Reporting & Optimization:

- Lead bottom-of-funnel analysis across account types — lead quality and CPL for lead gen; ROAS, MER, and CAC efficiency for ecommerce
- Build and maintain scalable dashboards; leverage Segwise and platform-native tools to surface creative performance signals and accelerate iteration
- Execute high-velocity testing roadmaps: creative, audience, bidding, and landing page — with data-backed recommendations, not just observations

Creative Direction & Collaboration:

- Serve as primary performance partner to creative — providing directive, data-grounded feedback optimized for lead capture or ecommerce conversion depending on the account
- Identify winning hooks, formats, and messaging angles; rapidly iterate and scale what works

Client Strategy & Communication:

- Lead QBRs with a clear POV: what worked, what didn't, where we're going — translating performance into pipeline and revenue narratives
- Proactively identify budget expansion, new channel, and upsell opportunities; contribute social strategy to new business pitches

Team Leadership:

- Lead, mentor, and manage a team of paid social managers and specialists; hold the team accountable to outcomes, not activity
- Implement standardized campaign structures, QA processes, optimization frameworks, and reporting systems across all accounts
