Sr. Paid Media Manager

Argent Digital is a growth marketing agency working with clients in the US and LATAM.
Read this part carefully, because it is what makes the role different: this job is roughly half paid media and half account management. You will build and optimize the campaigns yourself, and you will also own the client relationship, run the calls, and be the person the client trusts. If you only want to sit inside the ad platforms, this is not the seat. If you only want to manage relationships and hand execution to someone else, it is not the seat either.
We are looking for someone who thinks like a strategist: you have a point of view, you defend it with logic, and you can still open Google Ads or Meta Ads and do the work with your own hands.
THE PAID MEDIA HALF- Own a portfolio of client accounts across Google Ads and Meta Ads, from build to optimization to reporting- Plan, launch and scale campaigns: Search, Performance Max, Demand Gen, YouTube, Meta prospecting and retargeting- Own budget pacing and bid strategy across several accounts at once, protecting CPL, CPA, ROAS and lead quality- Structure accounts and naming conventions so a whole portfolio stays legible and auditable- Run continuous testing on audiences, offers, ad copy, creative and landing pages- Diagnose tracking and attribution issues (GA4, GTM, pixels, conversion APIs, CRM imports) and get conversions measured correctly
THE ACCOUNT MANAGEMENT HALF- Own the client relationship for your accounts: you are their main point of contact, not a back-office resource- Lead weekly and monthly performance reviews in English: what happened, why, and what we do next- Turn business goals into media plans and budget recommendations, and present them yourself- Push back with data when a request will not deliver, and bring the alternative- Manage expectations, scope and timelines, and escalate early when something is off track- Spot growth opportunities inside existing accounts and take them to the client- Coordinate creative and content teams so the client gets one coherent answer, not four
WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR- 4+ years managing Google Ads and Meta Ads with real budget ownership, hands-on in the platforms- Experience owning client relationships directly, without an account manager in between- Proven multi-account management: several clients in parallel, with pacing, priorities and QA under control- Deep command of campaign structure, targeting, bidding, budget allocation and optimization logic on both platforms- Working knowledge of conversion tracking and attribution, and the judgment to know when a number is wrong- Advanced English, written and spoken: you will lead client presentations and handle live questions- Opinions you can defend. We would rather hear "I disagree, and here is why" than silent execution- Full ownership: you monitor, you flag, you propose, you fix
NICE TO HAVE- Agency experience, or in-house for multiple brands- AI tools such as Claude or ChatGPT applied to research, ad copy, analysis and reporting- GA4, Google Tag Manager, Looker Studio- Lead generation and local service campaigns- LinkedIn Ads or TikTok Ads
Based in El Salvador, San Salvador metro area. Hybrid.
To apply, send your resume with two or three examples of accounts you have managed. For each one: platform, monthly budget range, what you owned, whether you handled the client directly, and the result.
