As Associate Director of Paid Media & Growth, you will drive growth across paid for several clients in SiaX/Ready Set Rocket's portfolio - owning strategy and execution across Paid Search (Google, Bing) and Paid Social (Meta, TikTok, YouTube), with oversight of programmatic, and bridging into adjacent growth levers like CRO, landing page optimization, and measurement. This is a hands-on-keys role for a senior practitioner who is still in-platform regularly - building, launching, optimizing, and reporting on campaigns themselves - while collaborating with and providing top-level direction for our Paid Media team.

Collaborate with the Creative Performance and Creative teams to brief, test, and adapt messaging and creative for the US and international markets which may include broader North America, Africa, LATAM, EU, and APAC.
Serve as a senior client-facing voice: present strategies, account growth narratives, and forecasts to senior client stakeholders. Set clear expectations when strategy shifts are required, before, during, and after execution.
Develop growth roadmaps that sequence channel investment across paid, identify new acquisition and LTV opportunities, and partner with CRO and analytics to connect paid into landing page and on-site conversion improvements across the funnel.
Stay ahead of platform changes, attribution shifts, and martech innovation, including AI tools, applying best practices across the portfolio.
