  • Strong knowledge of Google Ads bidding strategies, campaign structures, and automated tools.
  • Analytical mindset with hands-on experience using platforms like Google Analytics or other reporting tools.
  • A proactive, data-driven approach to problem-solving and the ability to work autonomously in a fast-paced environment.
  • Excellent communication skills, with the ability to present performance results to non-technical stakeholders.
  • Experience or interest in managing other digital marketing channels, particularly paid social and affiliate marketing, is a plus.
