Job description

Growth Strategist / Media Buyer – Creative Performance Agency (Remote : US & Europe)

We’re a creative performance agency built for ambitious D2C brands. Our work sits at the intersection of creative, media buying, and growth strategy — helping brands scale profitably by combining high-performing ads with a strong data-driven approach. We work with some of the most exciting D2C names across Europe and the US, and we’re now looking for a talented Growth Strategist / Media Buyer to join our team.

Think of this as a hybrid role between media buyer, strategist, and creative partner — designed for someone who doesn’t just “launch ads,” but drives growth outcomes.

About the Role

You’ll be the driving force behind paid media performance and client growth . You’ll manage paid social campaigns (primarily Meta), lead testing and iteration cycles, and work hand-in-hand with creative teams to launch ads that stop thumbs and scale profitably.

This is not a siloed ad-buying role — you’ll be expected to own outcomes, not just ad sets.

Key Responsibilities

  • Plan, launch, and manage paid social campaigns across Meta (Facebook & Instagram)
  • Scale ad accounts confidently — managing €20k–€500k+ monthly spend
  • Collaborate in a pod with a Creative Strategist and Account Manager to align on performance goals and execution
  • Guide creative testing and asset direction — you’ll help decide what gets made next
  • Interpret data, spot trends, and translate performance into clear actions and client insights
  • Drive and report on campaign KPIs : ROAS, CPA, MER, Spend Growth
  • Apply a disciplined testing framework to scale faster and learn quicker — testing velocity matters
  • Collaborate on broader growth strategy — landing pages, funnels, retention levers
  • Request creative resources proactively when you see bottlenecks or opportunities

What We’re Looking For

  • Proven experience running and scaling Meta campaigns with meaningful budgets
  • Strong grasp of Facebook’s algorithm, CBO / ABO structures , and creative strategy
  • Strategic operator — you understand full-funnel economics , not just CTRs and CPAs
  • Comfortable managing multiple client accounts with clear communication and prioritisation
  • Fluent in metrics, but obsessed with outcomes
  • Cross-functional collaborator who thrives in fast feedback loops with creative + account teams
  • (Bonus) Experience with creative strategy, landing page testing, or funnel optimization
  • What You’ll Love

  • Fully remote — open to applicants in the US and Europe
  • Agile pod-based structure that promotes speed, ownership, and autonomy
  • Work with breakout D2C brands across multiple industries
  • Creative freedom and the ability to influence ad direction
  • Tight-knit, high-performing team that actually supports each other
  • Room to grow and shape your own scope — no micromanagement

    Yearly Salary : $30,000-$36,000 + Bonus
