- Ensure proper setup and maintenance of Meta Pixel and TikTok Pixel for event tracking and data collection.
- Develop and provide detailed performance reports on ad campaigns for internal stakeholders, ensuring transparency and actionable insights.

Maintain excellent communication within the team and with stakeholders, using tools like Slack, project management software, and email.
Stay aligned with the marketing team to integrate digital ad strategies with broader marketing goals.

Qualifications:

Bachelor’s degree in Marketing, Business, or a related field.
3+ years of experience in performance marketing with a focus on paid social (Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, etc.).
Deep expertise in Facebook Ads Manager and TikTok Ads platforms, with hands-on experience in managing campaigns end-to-end.
Experience in audience segmentation, creative testing, and optimization for paid social channels.
Advanced knowledge of ROAS-based ad strategies and the ability to optimize campaigns based on specific ROI goals.
Strong experience with event tracking (Meta Pixel, TikTok Pixel, Google Tag Manager) and data analytics for campaign measurement.
Excellent communication skills (written and verbal) in English, with the ability to present data-driven insights to stakeholders.
Detail-oriented, able to work independently and problem-solve effectively in a fast-paced, remote work environment.
Strong analytical skills and proficiency in tools like Excel, Google Analytics, and Meta Business Suite.
