Job description

You'll be the person who actually understands what clients need, not what they think they need.

Most businesses know they should "do digital." They just don't know how. Which channels? What budget? What actually works for them? That's the gap you fill.

Your job: Talk to clients, figure out their real problem, recommend the right mix of digital (Google Ads, social, marketplace, search with whatever fits), collaborate with our specialists to build the strategy and budgets, and close the deal.

You're not just selling ad spend. You're solving problems strategically. And you're thinking ahead about where digital is going (including AI.)

What You’ll Actually Do

Discovery & Diagnosis

• Listen to clients. Figure out what’s actually broken (not what they assume is broken)
• Map their business, their market, their competition
• Ask the right questions to understand which channels matter to them

Strategic Thinking

• Recommend the right mix of channels (SEM, social, marketplace, or a combination)
• Think about sequencing‑what comes first, what’s long‑term, what’s quick wins
• Work with our specialists to build budgets that make sense (not just big numbers)
• Defend every recommendation with logic

Selling the Solution

• Present strategy in language that clients actually understand
• Own the full sales cycle – from discovery through close
• Build trust by showing you actually get their business
• Manage the relationship post‑sale (or hand off smoothly if the team grows)

Staying Sharp

• Develop your own point of view on what works in digital
• Stay ahead of trends – where is search going? Where is AI heading?
• Contribute ideas to how 3thirds evolves
• Eventually bring clients into emerging opportunities (like AI Optimisation)

Commission‑Based Reality

• Your earnings are tied to the budgets you bring in
• This means you’re incentivised to recommend right solutions, not inflated ones
• You have real skin in the game

What You Need

Essential

• 1–3 years in digital marketing sales, SEM, social ads, or similar (more is great)
• Real experience managing ad budgets (Google Ads, Meta, TikTok, etc.)
• You understand how different channels work and when to use them
• Ability to think strategically – diagnose problems, don’t just throw solutions at them
• Strong communicator (explain complexity simply, no jargon)
• Comfortable working with specialists and technical teams
• Track record of closing deals and owning the full sales cycle

Bonus

• Experience with e‑commerce, SaaS, or B2B clients
• Familiarity with marketplace platforms (Shopee, Lazada, etc.)
• You’re tracking what’s happening in search and AI
• Portfolio or case studies showing strategic thinking (not just ad spend)

Must‑Have Mindset

• Strategic thinker, you ask "why" before jumping to "how"
• Client‑first (their problem matters more than your commission)
• Coachable and eager to learn – digital moves fast
• Entrepreneurial – you own your results
• Curious about where tech and marketing are heading

Why 3thirds

You’d be joining a team that doesn’t just run ads. We help brands become authorities in their space. We start with a smart digital strategy. We evolve into emerging opportunities like AI Optimisation when it makes sense. We think differently.

You’ll work with a sales director who gets strategy. You’ll collaborate with specialists who understand execution. You’ll have room to develop your own thinking about what actually works.

The path forward: Start strong in digital marketing. Build real expertise. Eventually, help clients navigate AI‑driven search and positioning. Grow into something bigger than "ads person."

Remote, flexible. Full‑time or contract. We mean it.

Commission‑based. Your effort = your earnings. No cap.

The Application Process

This isn’t a standard job application.

Step 1: Apply with your CV and answer these:

• What’s your strongest channel (SEM, social, marketplace, or a mix)?
• Tell us about a client win you’re proud of – what was the challenge and how did you solve it?
• Why does 3thirds interest you?

Step 2: We’ll send you a screening task (8 mins to read, 15–20 mins to complete). This is where we see how you actually think:

• You’ll get a realistic client scenario
• You’ll diagnose what they need
• You’ll recommend a strategy (channels, sequencing, reasoning)
• You’ll defend your thinking

No templates. No generic answers. We want to see strategic thinking.

Step 3: If you nail the task, we’ll have a proper conversation. Probably with the sales director. Maybe work through a real scenario together.
