Job Summary
Senior Paid Media Specialist - Meta Ads (JB6015)
Location: Maitland Cape Town
Salary: R40000 R65000 per month (negotiable depending on experience)
Duration: Permanent
Employment Type: Full-Time
Nearly two decades in and this paid media agency is still doing what a lot of others only claim to. No fluff no organic content plays no jack-of-all-trades positioning. Just focused high-quality paid media work for a curated portfolio of clients who actually know their ROAS from their CPM.
The team is small by design the work is hands-on by choice and right now the business is going through a deliberate evolution. They are scrapping the traditional account manager model and moving to a pod structure where the people running the campaigns are the people talking to clients. It is a sharper leaner way of working and they are building the team around it.
If Meta is where you live and Google is a language you also speak fluently this one is for you.
You will be the Meta specialist within a pod owning campaign strategy and execution across a group of accounts while bringing Google in as a strong secondary channel. This is not a role where you hand your results to someone else to present. You will be reading your own data in Looker Studio pulling out the insights that actually mean something and taking them directly to clients who are switched on and expect a real conversation. The agency has also started plugging AI into the reporting and optimisation workflow so the admin side of month-end is getting lighter and the strategic side is where your energy goes.
