Media Buyer

Media Buyer: Run the Ads for a Nine-Figure Waste Company, and the Next Ones We Sign
Paid per account. Part-time to start, full-time as we grow, with the potential to earn over AUD $10,000 a month.
Our largest client is JJ's Waste & Recycling, Australia's largest family-owned waste company (Billion dollar company). We run their commercial bin campaigns across more than 20 locations in Australia and New Zealand, and those campaigns have produced more than 1,300 signed contracts.
We're a small, fast-growing remote team, and we're about to take on more waste companies of the same size. We need a media buyer to grow with us.
Waste is a niche almost nobody in paid media knows well. Whoever takes this role will become one of the few media buyers anywhere who does. You'll learn what a commercial bin customer looks like, what makes them switch, and what a signed contract is worth.
You'll also see the whole picture. Every lead from our campaigns lands in our own CRM. During business hours our setters usually call it within minutes, and we record what happens next: whether they answered, why they weren't interested, whether an appointment was booked, and whether the business signed. You see all of it, by location, every week. So when a campaign drops off, you can find out why instead of guessing.
To be straight: today the budgets are per location, not one giant brand account. That's the opportunity. We want someone who will find what works, build new strategies and take it to the next level. If the data says a client should be spending more, or the deal should change, bring us the case and we'll take it to them.
How You're Paid
You're paid per account or campaign. You'll start with the accounts we have now, which won't be full-time straight away. As we sign more clients, your book grows with them. It becomes a full-time role with the potential to earn well over AUD $10,000 a month

About the Role
You'll own paid advertising across our client accounts. That means understanding the numbers, spotting problems early, and making the call when a campaign isn't doing what it should. Our Client Success Manager looks after the client relationship and our Graphic Designer makes the creative. You decide what the campaigns need, and you tell them.
What You'll Be Responsible For
Managing paid campaigns across multiple client accounts and locations.
Watching the numbers that matter: CPL, CTR, CPM, conversion rate, cost per appointment and cost per signed contract.
Catching performance issues before they become big problems.
Working out why a campaign has dropped off, and fixing it.
Planning and running tests across audiences, creative, offers and locations.
Developing new strategies, and making the case when a client should scale their budget or upgrade their agreement.
Keeping our Client Success Manager and Graphic Designer across performance and priorities.
Keeping reporting and campaign notes accurate.
Owning the result, not just carrying out instructions.
What We're Looking For
You've managed paid campaigns hands-on for a good while, and you're comfortable being accountable for how they perform. We're particularly interested in people who have:
Managed meaningful monthly ad spend, ideally across many accounts or locations at once.
Scaled campaigns while keeping acquisition costs where they need to be.
Turned campaigns around when performance suddenly dropped.
A clear understanding of how ads, funnels, leads, appointments and revenue connect.
The drive to innovate, not just maintain what's already running.
An interest in going deep on one industry and becoming the expert in it.
Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
Clear, direct communication.
The ability to work independently and take initiative.
An eye for detail that doesn't lose sight of the commercial picture.
Working Arrangement
This is a remote role. You'll need to work well with a remote team and stay in close contact during overlapping hours. Candidates in Australia, Bali, Thailand or the Philippines are especially encouraged to apply because of the time zone overlap.
