Paid Media Manager (Contract / Hourly)
Blennd is seeking a senior-level Paid Media Manager to own and operate paid acquisition across multiple client accounts. This is a true end-to-end paid media role — from strategy through execution, optimization, and reporting.
This role is best suited for an experienced solo consultant or full-time contractor who is actively building their book of business. In our experience, this is not a good fit for someone attempting to layer this on top of a full-time job, and we want to be transparent about that upfront.
You will be supported by our Project Managers, Head of Growth, designers, and developers — but you will be the primary owner of paid media strategy and performance.
What You’ll Do:
Own paid media strategy across B2B, ABM, and B2C/DTC clients.
Develop multi-channel media plans aligned to client goals and funnel stages.
Prepare creative briefs and collaborate with design and copy teams.
Build, launch, and manage campaigns across platforms (“pull the levers”).
Set up, maintain, and validate tracking, attribution, and reporting.
Actively optimize campaigns toward client KPIs (not vanity metrics).
Participate in:
4–6 hours/week of pre-scheduled client and internal meetings (attendance is required).
Ongoing async collaboration via Slack and email.
Required Experience & Skills (Non-Negotiable):
Agency experience or experience managing multiple clients simultaneously.
Broad paid media background across: B2B, ABM, B2C / DTC
Proven ability to build and execute multi-channel strategies.
Senior-level experience with: Meta Ads, Google Ads, GA4, Google Tag Manager (GTM)
Mid-level experience with: LinkedIn Ads, TikTok Ads, Snap Ads, X (Twitter) Ads
Strong experience with:
Analytics and performance reporting, Conversion tracking and attribution, KPI-driven optimization
Comfortable working within agency operations: Project management tools, Ticketing systems, Time tracking
Ability to: Scope and estimate time requirements, Report against time allocation, Be accountable to mutually agreed timelines and deliverables
Bonus Experience:
Account-Based Marketing (ABM)
Higher-education marketing
Why This Role Is Different:
This is not a “set it and forget it” execution role.
This is a strategic operator role for someone who wants to:
Own outcomes
Influence creative and funnel decisions
Be accountable for real performance and business results
If that excites you, we’d love to talk.
All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, disability, or status as a protected veteran
