Reality Check We’re a profitable, omnichannel snack brand in 5,000+ retail doors, with Kroger adding 2,000 more. We need someone who’s in Facebook Ads Manager RIGHT NOW, not someone who “oversaw media buying” last year. If you haven’t personally built a campaign this week, stop reading.

What You’ll Actually Do Own the entire growth engine – from keyboard to revenue. You’ll be in Ads Manager daily, negotiating with creators directly, and building campaigns that drive both online sales and in‑store velocities. This isn’t a management role; it’s an execution role that eventually earns the right to build a team.

Core Ownership Areas Performance Marketing (Hands on Keyboard)

Personally manage and optimize $500K–$1M/month in Meta/Google spend

Build campaigns, test audiences, write ad copy, analyze creative data yourself

Design geo‑targeted campaigns for our retail partners, especially the Kroger launch

Creator & Influencer Excellence (Direct Relationships)

Personally manage whitelisting campaigns across 100+ creators

You negotiate with macro influencers and YouTubers (10M+ subscribers)

You write the briefs, review the content, launch the ads

Build creator content that drives DTC sales and retail traffic

No “my team handled creators” – you handle creators

TikTok Shop & Retail Activation

Build our TikTok Shop from your keyboard to $1M+/month

Create geo‑targeted digital campaigns that drive store velocities

Track digital > retail impact and optimize based on real velocity data

Own Kroger launch digital strategy and execution

Requirements Brand‑Side Experience Only: We exclusively hire from brands. Period. No agencies. No exceptions. If you’ve spent your career spending other people’s money without P&L accountability, this role isn’t for you.

Must Have

Currently running $300K+/month in paid spend yourself (not your team)

Opened Facebook Ads Manager today (we’ll ask to screenshare)

Personal relationships with 50+ creators you’ve whitelisted

Have personally negotiated influencer deals (not through an agency)

Worked at profitable brands between $10M–$100M

Understand retail velocities and digital’s impact on them

Prove You’re Real

Screenshare your Facebook Ads Manager during the interview

Show us a campaign you optimized THIS WEEK

Pull up actual creator conversations in your inbox

Walk through your personal workflow for launching whitelisting campaigns

If you can’t do this, don’t apply

What Success Looks Like Day 1:

You’re in our ad account optimizing campaigns.

Compensation

Equity: Generous stock plan with significant upside as we scale to $100M+

Remote‑first with quarterly sprints

Why This Role Matters Our founder is spread across three brands. You’ll have full autonomy and significant equity to build the growth engine, but you have to build it yourself first, not manage others to do it.

Do NOT Apply If

You “oversaw” media buying but didn’t do it yourself

You “managed a team” that ran campaigns

You last opened Facebook Ads Manager in 2023

You think creative strategy means mood board

You’ve never felt the pain of missing ROAS targets with your budget

To Apply

Proof of a creator whitelisting deal YOU personally executed

Your exact plan for our Kroger launch activation

Subject line: “I personally scaled [Brand] from $X to $Y". No agencies. No “I managed someone who did this.” No exceptions.

If you’re still reading and can actually do what we’re asking, you’ll build serious wealth here through our equity plan. But you have to be able to do the work, not talk about it.
