- TikTok Ads (strongly preferred)
- Experience in one or more of:

- Strong understanding of:
- CPL optimization
- Funnel metrics (CTR, CVR, CPA, LTV)
- Creative testing frameworks
- Ability to work closely with creative teams and guide creative direction based on performance
- Experience with lead generation funnels + CRM systems
- Strong analytical mindset and fast decision-making ability
What Success Looks Like
- You can consistently scale paid social campaigns profitably
- You hit or beat target CPLs while increasing volume
- You identify and scale winning creatives quickly
- You bring structure and predictability to lead generation
Compensation
- Competitive base + performance-based bonuses tied to:
- Lead volume
- CPL targets
- Campaign profitability
- Comprehensive healthcare coverage - Medical, Dental and Vision
