Performance Marketing Manager

Paid Media · SEO · Site Optimization Rustic work with internal / freelance creative Clean measurement: GA4, Shopify, platform data, and honest attribution — not vanity dashboards Who This Is For 3+ years hands-on paid media, with real ownership of accounts — not assisting them Proven results on Google, Meta, and ideally Pinterest for DTC / e-commerce, preferably high-AOV You have run meaningful monthly spend and can talk specifically about what you did to the numbers You can do competent SEO and CRO without a specialist sitting next to you You want W-2 ownership of one brand, not a book of clients or a freelance stack You write and speak clearly. You ship. You do not hide behind jargon What This Is Not A training seat, coordinator role, or “digital marketing generalist” who dabbles in ads An agency account-manager role dressed up as in-house A freelance / contractor / 1099 arrangement, or a fully remote role A brand / social / content job with paid ads on the side Nice to Have Shopify plus catalog / product-feed experience Jewelry, luxury, bridal, or other high-consideration DTC categories Klaviyo / email and SMS: you can keep campaigns and flows moving. This is not a full lifecycle-email seat. Email may be an interim duty until it is staffed separately Experience briefing and iterating performance creative at a weekly cadence Triple Whale, Northbeam, or similar How We Hire We will ask for specific account ownership, spend levels, and results — not a portfolio of logos. Expect a working conversation on PMax, Advantage+, feed quality, and how you decide where the next dollar goes. If you cannot talk about your own numbers, this is not the role. Compensation: $95,000–$130,000 base, depending on experience, plus performance bonuses tied to hitting agreed metrics such as ROAS and MER (marketing efficiency ratio). Benefits discussed with qualified candidates. This is an on-site role in Huntersville / Charlotte, NC, with some remote work available. To apply: send a short note on the largest paid program you personally owned (channels, approximate monthly spend, and what changed under you). Résumés without that context will not be reviewed.
