  • Test ad copy, landing pages, targeting, bidding strategies, and new growth opportunities.

  • Ability to provide specific examples of campaigns you personally managed, optimized, and improved.
  • Strong analytical, problem‑solving, and communication skills.
  • Ability to work independently and take ownership of results.
  • Experience in competitive, lead‑generation‑focused environments.
Nice to Have
