Paid Media Team Lead

Paid Media Team Lead
Location: Philippines, Remote
Schedule: Full time, Monday through Friday, U.S. Eastern business hours
Compensation: $3,500 USD per month
About the Role:
Workspark is hiring an experienced Paid Media Team Lead to join the paid media team of an established U.S. digital marketing agency.
This is a great opportunity for someone who has built strong paid search expertise and is ready to combine that experience with team leadership, client strategy, and meaningful ownership.
You will lead a team of three paid media professionals while also working directly with clients and staying close enough to the platforms to jump in when needed.
This is not a role where you simply review reports or manage from a distance. You will help shape strategy, understand what is driving performance, guide your team, and help clients make smarter decisions with their media investment.
What You Will Do:
• Lead, coach, and support a team of three paid media professionals
• Hold regular 1:1s, provide feedback, help prioritize workloads, and support the team’s development
• Lead paid media strategy for assigned client accounts
• Lead client conversations, present performance and recommendations, and handle more complex questions or escalations
• Stay hands on with Google Ads and Microsoft Ads when needed
• Work across Paid Search, Performance Max, Demand Gen, YouTube, and Display
• Analyze campaign performance and turn the data into clear recommendations and next steps
• Lead forecasting, budget planning, pacing, and performance planning
• Manage accounts with more than $1 million in annual advertising spend
• Use Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, conversion tracking, attribution, and performance reporting to understand what is working and where opportunities exist
• Use AI tools to support analysis, reporting, forecasting, and strategic planning
• Work closely with other teams across the agency to help clients get stronger results
What We Are Looking For:
• 5+ years of hands on paid search experience
• Digital marketing agency experience
• Strong, recent experience with both Google Ads and Microsoft Ads
• Experience managing annual advertising budgets of $1 million or more
• Experience leading, mentoring, or managing paid media professionals
• Strong forecasting, budgeting, and performance planning experience
• Experience leading client conversations and presenting recommendations clearly
• Strong understanding of Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, conversion tracking, attribution, and measurement
• Strong analytical skills and confidence working in Excel and Google Sheets
• Experience turning campaign performance data into meaningful business recommendations
• Experience using AI tools to support paid media work
• Strong organization and the ability to manage multiple accounts, priorities, and deadlines
• Excellent spoken and written English
• Comfortable working full time during U.S. Eastern business hours
You May Be a Great Fit If:
You enjoy digging into the numbers and understanding why performance is changing, not just reporting what happened.
You like helping other paid media professionals become better at what they do.
You are comfortable moving between client conversations, strategy, leadership, and hands on campaign work.
And even though you have grown into leadership, you still understand the platforms well enough to roll up your sleeves when the team needs you.
If that sounds like the kind of work you have already been doing and you are ready to take on more ownership with a U.S. agency, we would love to hear from you.
What Workspark Provides:
• $3,500 USD monthly compensation
• Paid vacation, holidays, and sick leave after probation
• Regular Workspark employee check ins and support
• Full time work directly with an established U.S. digital marketing agency
• The opportunity to lead an experienced paid media team while continuing to grow your strategic and client leadership experience
