Your role in helping us shape the future:

We’re hiring a Senior Manager of Paid Social Marketing to lead the execution of our paid social program across all major platforms. Reporting to the Senior Director of Paid Marketing, you’ll own the day-to-day strategy, optimization, and performance of our paid social channels — turning budget into measurable, efficient growth.

This is a hands-on leadership role for someone who lives in the platforms, knows what great looks like, and is energized by a fast-paced testing culture. You’ll manage one direct report and work closely with Design, Analytics, Data Science, and Lifecycle teams to push our paid social program to the next level.
