About the Role:
We are looking for a high-ownership Media Buyer & Funnel Expert to become a foundational partner in our acquisition engine. This isn't a role for someone who just wants to "check boxes" or wait for instructions. We need a technical strategist who acts as a thought leader—someone who can own the entire paid ecosystem from the first ad impression to the final booked appointment.
You will manage a current monthly spend of $10k–$20k, with the immediate goal of scaling to $30k–$50k+ by the end of the year. While the founder handles creative production, you will own the technical execution, funnel architecture, and data integrity.
Role Responsibilities:
* Paid Media Orchestration:End-to-end management of Meta (Facebook/Instagram) campaigns. You’ll handle strategy, bidding, testing, and scaling to hit aggressive ROAS targets.
* Funnel Architecture:Build and optimize high-ticket appointment-setting funnels, including VSL pages, landing pages, and sophisticated booking flows.
* Tech Stack Integration:Manage and troubleshoot our marketing suite, ensuring seamless data flow between HubSpot, Zapier, Typeform, and Calendly.
* Tracking & Analytics:Own the conversion tracking (API/Pixel) and reporting. You must be able to translate data into actionable scaling decisions.
* Systems Innovation:Implement AI-driven workflows (e.g., LLM integrations, automation tools) to increase efficiency and lead quality.
* Strategic Ownership:Proactively suggest funnel improvements, landing page iterations, and new acquisition angles.
Requirements:
* 5+ years of hands-on Meta Ads experience at meaningful spend levels ($20k+/mo).
* High-Ticket Specialist:Proven track record with appointment-setting funnels.Note:We are looking for service/coaching/B2B expertise,not e-commerce or General Lead Generation.

* AI Fluency:Familiarity withAI tools (ChatGPT, Claude, or automation platforms like N8N)to enhance marketing operations.
* Operational Excellence:Strong communication viaSlackand a "get it done" attitude—if a funnel breaks on a Saturday, you’re the type of person who wants to jump in and fix it.

Tips for South African Applicants
Timezone Advantage
South Africa (SAST, UTC+2) overlaps well with European business hours and has a few hours of overlap with US East Coast. Mention your timezone flexibility in your application.
Salary in Context
At R31,450/month, this role is competitive with the average South African remote salary. The USD equivalent ($1,700/mo) benefits from the favourable exchange rate.
Application Tips
Tailor your CV to international standards — use a clean format, highlight remote work experience, and include your English proficiency. Many SA applicants succeed by emphasising their strong work ethic and cultural adaptability.
Load Shedding Preparedness
If you're applying for a remote role, having a backup power solution (UPS, inverter, or generator) and mobile data as a backup internet connection shows employers you're prepared for South Africa's infrastructure challenges.
