About the role

Title: Senior Director of Paid Media
Company: Ghost Growth Location: Remote
Compensation: $400K–$800K total comp
About Ghost GrowthGhost Growth is the leading performance marketing agency in telehealth. We manage more than $85M a month in media spend for top brands in telehealth. Our media buyers, data, creative and CRO teams work together to scale accounts quickly.
The Role: The Senior Director of Paid Media owns strategy and execution for key client accounts. You'll set the growth plan, make the calls inside the ad platforms, and own the results. Junior media buyers, a data team, a creative team and a CRO team support you, so you can push scale without doing every task yourself. The role is part strategy and part hands-on-keyboard.

  • Drive fast, profitable scale while keeping CAC on target
  • Make high-stakes budget calls, often tens of thousands of dollars a day
  • Lead and develop junior media buyers through daily hands-on work and review
  • Work with the data team on reporting, attribution and decisions
  • Partner with the creative team on testing strategy, briefs and finding winners
  • Work with the CRO team to improve landing pages and funnel conversion
  • Be the senior paid media voice with clients: set direction, explain performance and build trust
  • What You Bring
  • A track record of managing accounts that spend 7–8 figures a month
  • Proof that you've scaled accounts quickly and profitably
  • Deep hands-on skill in the major paid social and search platforms
  • Strong analytical judgment. You're comfortable deciding fast from incomplete data
  • Experience leading or mentoring media buyers
  • Clear, confident communication with clients and leadership

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
