• Lead our offshore campaign build team day to day — workflows, QA checklists, naming conventions, and account structure.

• Join client calls as the go-to technical expert and resolve issues quickly.

• Deliver monthly performance insights, stronger reporting, and strategic recommendations in-platform.

• Train and upskill our Digital Success Managers so quality never depends on one person.

• Help launch new products and scale our execution capacity within an omni-channel, organic-first approach.

Requirements

• 3–5 years of hands-on experience managing paid search and paid social campaigns.

• Deep in-platform know-how across major ad platforms, including tracking, conversion setup, and budget management.

• Experience leading or coordinating a team, including offshore or remote builders.

• Confidence speaking with clients and translating technical issues into plain language.

• A process-minded approach — you love a good QA checklist and clean account structure.

• Availability for daily overlap with our offshore team's working hours.

• Every account is audited, tracking is fixed, and baselines are set within your first 30 days.

• Campaigns launch, pause, and restart on time — and budgets stay on pace.

• The build team runs on a consistent QA and daily workflow, and quality holds steady.

• Clients trust you as their technical go-to — and their results show it.
