📋 Description

• As an Account Strategist, Paid Media at Directive Consulting, you will play a pivotal role in driving measurable growth for enterprise SaaS and tech clients by leveraging the company’s proprietary Customer Generation methodology, which prioritizes SQLs and customer acquisition over traditional marketing metrics, directly impacting client revenue and long-term partnership success.
• You will own end-to-end management of a portfolio of paid media accounts, serving as the primary strategic and operational liaison between clients and internal teams, ensuring alignment on goals, performance, and continuous optimization across Google Ads, Facebook Ads, LinkedIn Ads, and emerging platforms to maximize ROI and deliver against quarterly business objectives.
• You will collaborate closely with the Associate Director and cross-functional partners to translate client value propositions into high-performing paid media strategies, oversee budget allocation and utilization, validate lead routing accuracy in CRM systems, and champion data-driven storytelling that connects campaign performance to business outcomes.
• Directive Consulting is a remote-first, performance marketing agency specializing in B2B SaaS and technology clients, known for its innovative Customer Generation framework and commitment to blending analytical rigor with creative strategy to deliver predictable, scalable growth.
• The Paid Media team operates with a high degree of autonomy and accountability, fostering a culture of curiosity, continuous learning, and ownership — where strategists are encouraged to stay ahead of industry trends, experiment with AI and automation, and contribute to thought leadership while building deep expertise in enterprise-level paid media execution.
• In this role, you will develop advanced proficiency in managing complex, multi-channel paid media campaigns for mid-market and enterprise clients, refine your ability to translate technical performance data into compelling narratives for executives, and gain exposure to strategic account planning, cross-selling opportunities, and client renewal leadership — positioning you for growth into senior strategy or account leadership roles.
• You will cultivate mastery in balancing analytical precision with creative storytelling, learning how to align paid media tactics with broader customer journey goals, and become adept at navigating enterprise sales cycles while maintaining a client-first, results-obsessed mindset that defines Directive’s culture.

🎯 Requirements

• 3+ years of experience working at a performance or digital marketing agency, with proven success managing paid media campaigns for B2B SaaS or technology clients.
• Deep expertise in Google Ads, Facebook Ads, LinkedIn Ads, and other paid social/platforms, including proficiency in campaign setup, optimization, bid management, and audience targeting.
• Strong analytical skills with hands-on experience using Google Analytics, GA4, Excel, or similar platforms to interpret performance data, identify trends, and make data-driven optimization decisions.
• Demonstrated ability to manage budgets, build quarterly strategies, and drive measurable results for mid-market or enterprise accounts, including client retention and upsell/cross-sell success.
• Excellent communication and storytelling abilities, with the capacity to translate complex data into clear, actionable insights for client stakeholders and executives.
• Highly organized, self-directed, and capable of juggling multiple projects and priorities in a fast-paced, remote-first environment while maintaining exceptional quality and attention to detail.

🏖️ Benefits

• Competitive base salary range of $70,000–$95,000 USD annually, with potential for performance-based bonuses that increase with tenure.
• Comprehensive health coverage including 100% employer-paid medical, dental, and vision plans for employees, plus 50% employer contribution for dependents, along with disability and life insurance.
• Generous time-off policy featuring unlimited PTO (with a 2-week minimum expectation), paid company holidays, birthday off, year-end recharge closure (Dec 24–Jan 1), and paid parental leave.
• Wellness support through access to certified therapists via Spring Health, Headspace membership, and Gympass for physical fitness.
• Financial benefits including traditional and Roth 401(k) plans with a 3% company match, plus an annual anniversary trip to Newport Beach, CA for employees and leadership.
