In an industry where media buying is often reduced to a commodity, the real competitive edge lies at the intersection of technical excellence and commercial acumen. 

However, this agency is looking for a Growth Strategist to step into a role where your impact stretches far beyond an ad account and deep into the client’s P&L. Trusted by over 200 global brands and having managed $100M+ in spend, this team exists to solve the complex growth challenges that limit a brand's ability to scale. You will be empowered to take ownership of end-to-end outcomes, translating performance data into clear growth strategies that drive real business results.

WHO THEY ARE

This team operates as an integrated growth advisory, combining data science, finance, and creative strategy into a single system. They have managed over $100M in ad spend to generate more than $500M in revenue for over 200 global brands.

The culture is anchored in three non-negotiable pillars:

• Incessant curiosity: They are a training-first business that values humility and the "why" over the "what". Every member undergoes a structured 6-week apprentice-style onboarding.
• Extreme ownership: There is no room for excuses or deflecting blame. Team members assume complete responsibility for their decisions and the resulting commercial outcomes.
• Passion & heart: They strive to become intimately familiar with each client’s "North Star" and care deeply about delivering extraordinary interactions.

This is a fully remote, full-time role with core crossover hours of 2:00 PM – 6:30 PM AEST.

WHAT’S IN IT FOR YOU

• Elite account exposure: Manage a portfolio of 3–4 accounts spending an average of $100K monthly for brands reaching up to $600M in revenue.
• Structured 6-Week onboarding: Complete an apprentice-style program covering advanced paid media, financial literacy (LTV:CAC, contribution margin), and data science fundamentals.
• Weekly strategic mentorship: Participate in deep-dives with the Lead Strategist to master decision frameworks, campaign architecture, and active client problem-solving.
• Merit-based growth: Progression is tied to demonstrated commercial impact and ownership, not tenure, with a clear path from Performance Marketer to Portfolio Strategist.
• Remote-first autonomy: Work from anywhere with APAC-friendly hours (core overlap from 2:00 PM Melbourne time) and a culture built on deep trust.
• Performance-driven rewards: Eligibility for quarterly bonuses based on 100% client retention, as well as incentives for staff and client referrals.
• Holistic wellness: Monthly lifestyle and fitness credits and an annual "Wellness Day" dedicated to rest and mental clarity.
• Global team culture: Join an international team for annual company-funded retreats (previous location: Cape Town) and discretionary invites to the Melbourne HQ.

WHAT YOU’RE GETTING INTO

• Use contribution margin, aMER, and LTV:CAC frameworks to model potential results and guide client budget decisions.
• Plan and implement high-performing campaigns across Meta, Google, and TikTok aligned with commercial targets.
• Proactively identify auction dynamics and creative fatigue before performance declines.
• Deliver high-context video and written reports that connect daily marketing tactics directly to P&L outcomes.
• Analyze conversion data and trend attribution to find where the next marginal dollar drives the most impact.
• Lead Ad Ops and Creative teams to turn strategic hypotheses into executable, high-performance assets.
• Participate in weekly strategist-led deep dives to challenge assumptions and sharpen commercial reasoning.

WHO YOU ARE

• You have 5+ years of experience managing multi-channel eCommerce portfolios (7–8 figures) in an agency or high-growth DTC environment.
• You are an expert in Meta and Google Ads, capable of independently building and scaling campaign structures.
• You have a deep grasp of eCommerce unit economics, including LTV, CAC payback, and margin constraints.
• You are a perpetual student who is self-directed and treats every learning resource as a tool to compound your impact.
• You possess sincere candor, offering direct, caring feedback to ensure strategy remains commercially sound.

WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE

30 days: Complete the 6-week structured immersion; align with technical and reporting standards while supporting live accounts.

60 days: Take ownership of key optimizations and reporting; proactively identify performance risks or churn signals.

90 days: Operate with full ownership of workstreams; connect performance directly to profitability and maintain 100% client retention.
