Role Summary

Own profitable growth for premium/luxury fashion brands across Meta and Google. You’ll architect full-funnel acquisition and retention strategies, lead a small pod (ads + creative + analyst), and turn brand narratives into measurable revenue—without compromising brand equity.

What You’ll Do (Key Responsibilities)

Strategy & Planning

• Build brand-wise growth plans: TAM, ICPs, funnel architecture (TOFU/MOFU/BOFU), channel mix, and budget phasing by season/collection.
• Translate brand stories (couture, demi-couture, bridal, pret) into audience frameworks, offers, and creative messaging.

Meta (Facebook/Instagram)

• Design and scale full-funnel structures (prospecting, re-engagement, retargeting) using best-practice account simplification.
• Deploy and iterate ad types: video, reels, collection, carousel, catalog sales/ASC, lead-gen (for couture consults), IG shopping.
• Set up measurement foundations: pixel/CAPI, event mapping, deduplication, and signal quality improvement.
• Creative system: write briefs, concept hooks, thumb-stoppers, and UGC/directorial assets; run structured creative tests.

Google (Search/Shopping/YouTube/Discovery)

• Own Merchant Center + feed hygiene for high-AOV catalogs (variants, availability, GTIN, rich attributes).

Revenue & Unit Economics

Measurement & Reporting
