  • Must have proven experience working with campaigns for fashion, jewelry, or lifestyle e‑commerce.
  • Demonstrated track record of driving measurable growth, from early stages to multi‑seven‑figure scale, through hands‑on testing and optimization.
  • Expertise managing campaigns across Meta and Google.

  • Highly detail‑oriented and analytical, with strong strategic problem‑solving skills.
  • Creative thinker who combines data analysis with storytelling instincts.
  • Hands‑on, self‑sufficient operator who thrives in a fast‑paced, entrepreneurial setting.
  • Experience in light motion or animation, basic Meta Ads Manager usage, and familiarity with startup or tech‑driven brand narratives is a plus.
  • What Success Looks Like

  • Noticeable improvement in campaign efficiency and ROAS within 60–90 days.
  • Reports that drive strategic decisions and prioritization.
  • A clear, documented testing roadmap that produces consistent growth.
  • Seamless handoffs and strong collaboration between creative, retention, and analytics teams.
