Senior Paid Social Performance Manager (Client-Facing, Meta-First) - 40683099233

We need a growth sniper who can grab a seven-figure monthly budget, squeeze profitable scale out of it on Meta, then rinse-and-repeat across TikTok, Snap, X, Pinterest, AppLovin, and any new channel that pops up tomorrow. You’re equally at home dissecting a performance report for the CFO and pitching a media plan to a Fortune-500 CMO—because those calls are often the same meeting.
