Senior Paid Advertising Strategist
About Reunion Marketing
Reunion Marketing is a dynamic, data-first digital marketing agency specializing in the automotive industry. We help clients grow through measurable, performance-driven strategies, innovative campaign execution, and a commitment to continuous improvement.
At Reunion, data beats intuition. We believe strong paid media performance requires more than technical campaign management. It requires strategic thinking, proactive communication, confident client leadership, and the ability to turn insights into action.
We are seeking a Senior Paid Advertising Strategist who can lead high-impact paid search and paid social strategies, influence client outcomes, and help elevate the overall performance standard of our paid advertising team.
About the Role
The Senior Paid Advertising Strategist will own and lead paid advertising strategy for a portfolio of client accounts, with responsibility for campaign performance, strategic recommendations, budget management, client communication, and cross-functional alignment.
This role is ideal for a seasoned paid media professional who is equally comfortable analyzing data, building campaign strategy, presenting performance insights, and influencing client direction. You will serve as a trusted performance advisor for your accounts and help guide clients toward decisions that improve measurable results.
This is not simply an execution-focused role. The Senior Paid Advertising Strategist is expected to think ahead, identify opportunities, solve complex performance challenges, mentor others, and contribute to the continued evolution of Reunion Marketing ’s paid advertising approach.

Paid Media Strategy & Performance Ownership
Own paid advertising strategy, execution, optimization, and performance outcomes across a portfolio of client accounts.
Develop and manage campaigns across platforms such as Google Ads, Microsoft Ads, Meta, and other relevant paid media channels.
Translate client goals into clear paid media strategies, campaign structures, testing plans, and performance benchmarks.
Monitor budgets, pacing, conversion trends, lead quality, cost efficiency, and overall account health.
Identify risks, performance gaps, and growth opportunities before they become client concerns.
Make proactive recommendations to improve results, increase efficiency, and strengthen client ROI.
Lead campaign testing initiatives, including audience strategy, creative testing, bidding strategies, landing page recommendations, and conversion optimization opportunities.
Client Communication & Strategic Influence
Serve as a senior subject matter expert on client-facing calls, performance reviews, and strategic planning discussions.
Translate complex campaign data into clear, compelling performance narratives that clients can understand and act on.
Confidently explain strategy, results, recommendations, and tradeoffs to clients and internal stakeholders.
Influence client decision-making by using data, industry insight, and performance trends to support recommendations.
Partner with Client Success team members to ensure paid advertising strategy aligns with client goals, expectations, and broader account strategy.
Support client retention and growth by demonstrating measurable value and strategic leadership.

Partner cross-functionally with Client Success, SEO, Analytics, Creative, and Development teams to ensure integrated client strategies.
Provide guidance, coaching, and support to Paid Advertising Strategists and other team members as needed.
Help establish and refine best practices for campaign management, performance reporting, optimization workflows, and client communication.
Contribute to internal training, knowledge sharing, and process improvement initiatives.
Act as an escalation point for complex paid media performance questions or account challenges.
Bring forward ideas that improve team efficiency, client outcomes, and overall department performance.
Reporting, Analysis & Continuous Improvement
Analyze campaign data to identify trends, insights, risks, and opportunities.
Prepare and present strategic performance updates that clearly connect actions to outcomes.
Use data to evaluate campaign effectiveness and recommend next steps.
Stay current on paid media platform changes, automation tools, AI-driven advertising capabilities, and industry trends.
Continuously test, learn, and refine strategies to improve performance across accounts.
Who You Are
You are a confident, strategic, and results-driven paid media professional who enjoys solving complex performance challenges. You are energized by fast-moving environments, comfortable influencing decisions, and motivated by measurable client success.
You combine technical platform expertise with strong business judgment and communication skills. You do not wait for direction when performance needs attention. You identify the issue, develop a point of view, and recommend a path forward.
You are persuasive without being pushy, analytical without getting lost in the details, and proactive without losing alignment with the broader team strategy.
