We've built the data infrastructure, the attribution pipelines, the cross-channel reporting, and the strategic framework.
Now we need a specialist who can live in the platforms, optimise campaigns, surface insights, and keep the numbers moving in the right direction.You will work directly with the Head of Acquisition Marketing, managing performance across Meta, Google, TikTok, Apple Search Ads, and Branch attribution.
You'll be the person who spots a CPA spike on Monday morning, diagnoses whether it's a creative fatigue issue or a targeting change, and takes action before the week is out.
You'll own the weekly reporting cadence, work with our agency partner on execution, and use AI-powered tools to move faster than a traditional one-person team ever could.This is not a set-and-forget media buying role.
