Paid Social & Creator Senior Manager (Remote)

United States

Paid Social & Creator Senior Manager (Remote) 

Overview:

The Paid Social & Creator Senior Manager owns Weedmaps' paid social and creator-led acquisition end-to-end, leading strategy, execution, and optimization across Meta and emerging biddable social platforms (e.g., TikTok, Pinterest, Reddit, Snapchat), along with paid influencer and creator partnerships. As a channel owner, this person is directly accountable for scaling efficient new-shopper acquisition through creative-led buying in a heavily regulated vertical, where the rate and quality of creative iteration is the primary lever of performance. This role sits at the intersection of media buying, creative, and culture, and is ideal for an operator who thinks in creative tests, partners naturally with creators and creative teams, and can turn cultural moments into measurable growth.

The impact you'll make:

  • Own paid social strategy and execution across Meta and emerging biddable social platforms end-to-end, accountable for budget pacing, bidding, audiences, and creative performance against new-shopper and efficiency targets.
  • Own paid influencer and creator acquisition, from partner identification and briefing through to whitelisting/partnership ads, performance measurement, and scaling what works, in coordination with the broader creator and cultural marketing initiatives.
  • Drive efficient growth in First-Time Shoppers, treating creative as the primary performance lever: concepting, briefing, and rapidly testing and iterating ad creative at the cadence of modern social buying demands.
  • Serve as the paid media team's closest partner to the Creative team, translating performance signals into clear creative briefs and feeding learnings back into the next round of concepts and formats.
  • Design and run a continuous creative experimentation roadmap (hooks, formats, messaging, audiences) with structured testing and clear read-outs that compound learnings over time.
  • Collaborate with the Lifecycle team to ensure acquired users are tracked through to engagement and retention, optimizing toward shopper quality and downstream value, not just front-end volume.
  • Maintain rigorous channel hygiene and compliance, navigating platform policies and the cannabis regulatory landscape (state-level legal matrix) to keep accounts and creator partnerships in good standing.
  • Partner with the Senior Director and Finance on budget scenarios and monthly/quarterly planning, laddering plans up from state-level market priorities (P1/P2 markets) and key cultural and seasonal moments.
  • Work with Media Operations on tracking standardization (Branch/UTM), conversion measurement, and reporting to ensure clean, decision-grade performance data.
  • Evaluate, test, and onboard new social platforms, creator partners, and ad tech as opportunities and platform risk dictate, building resilience against channel volatility.
  • Present channel performance, creative learnings, and recommendations to marketing leadership and cross-functional stakeholders, including the new state-level operating cadence.
  • Document strategies, creative learnings, and processes in shared SOPs to support team-wide continuity and knowledge transfer.

What you've accomplished:

  • 5-8 years of hands-on paid media experience with deep expertise in paid social (Meta required; additional biddable social platforms a strong plus).
  • Demonstrated track record of scaling user acquisition through creative-led paid social, with a clear point of view on what makes performance creative work.
  • Hands-on experience running paid influencer or creator campaigns (e.g., partnership/branded content ads, creator whitelisting) and managing creator relationships.
  • Strong analytical foundation: fluent in metrics such as CPA, CPC, CTR, ROAS, and downstream quality/retention signals, with the ability to turn creative-level data into action.
  • Proven experimentation mindset with a record of designing and executing structured creative tests.
  • Excellent collaboration and communication skills, with a natural ability to partner with creative teams and creators and to brief work that performs.
  • Highly organized and self-directed, able to manage high creative volume and multiple workstreams in a fast-paced, ambiguous environment.

Bonus points: 

  • BA/BS preferred.
  • Familiarity with attribution/measurement tooling, MMPs (e.g., Branch), and GA4.
  • Experience with creator marketplaces, social listening, or UGC sourcing and production workflows.
  • A feel for culture and trends, with the ability to translate cultural moments into paid social and creator activations.
  • Experience in a marketplace, publisher, or two-sided platform business.
  • Experience managing acquisition in regulated or restricted-advertising categories is a plus but not required.

The base pay range for this position is $123,200 - $140,000 per year, and a competitive bonus

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
