Job description

Reports to: Paid Media Team Lead

Experience: 4–6 years

Location: Remote (US or Latam based)

About the Role

We’re looking for a Paid Search Manager to join our growing performance marketing team. You’ll be part of one of our lean, fast-moving Pods consisting of Paid Search Managers, Paid Social Managers, and Project Managers – all reporting into a Paid Media Team Lead.

This is a hands‑on role where you'll take end-to-end ownership of client campaigns, from strategy to execution, across channels like Google Ads and Microsoft Ads (Bing). Because of our small team structure, there’s real space for autonomy, impact, and cross‑functional collaboration.

What You’ll Do

• Own the full lifecycle of paid search campaigns: planning, building, launching, optimizing, and reporting.
• Manage budgets, pacing, performance targets, and campaign structure across Google Ads (primarily), as well as Microsoft Ads where needed.
• Collaborate closely with paid social, PMs, creative, and analytics teams to align goals and ensure full-funnel visibility.
• Develop creative and strategic search approaches based on business goals (lead gen, acquisition, brand growth).
• Monitor KPIs like CTR, CVR, ROAS, impression share, quality score, and translate data into actionable insights.
• Communicate directly with clients – leading calls, building relationships, and explaining what’s working (and what needs to be tested).
• Test and iterate constantly: audiences, creatives, bidding strategies, and landing page paths.
• Contribute to campaign learnings across the team and help raise our strategic approach to performance marketing.

Who You Are

• You have 4–6 years of hands‑on experience managing Paid Search accounts, within an agency working with B2B SaaS clients.
• You're confident in managing large‑scale and complex search accounts.
• You understand both direct response and brand marketing goals, and how search plays into both.
• You’ve got strong communication skills — with internal teammates and external stakeholders.
• You love data, but you also know how to tell a story through numbers.
• You’re proactive, self‑managed, and excited by the idea of owning your work fully.
• You’ve worked in small, dynamic teams before - and you know how to make things happen.

Bonus Points

• Experience working alongside Paid Social, SEO, or CRO teams.
• Strong familiarity with Google Tag Manager, GA4, Looker, Hubspot, or similar tools.
