What are the responsibilities and job description for the Senior Media Manager, Paid Social position at Envisionit?

Envisionit, an award-winning digital marketing agency based in Chicago, is on the lookout for a talented and hands-on Senior Paid Social Media Manager to join our growing team. Our clients span a number of industries, including CPG, Emerging Tech, Hospitality and Travel, and our teams boast many talents across the spectrum of digital. Come work alongside a tight-knit bunch of seriously skilled people who genuinely like each other, have fun and work hard for the collective success! We are headquartered in Chicago and have a beautiful office overlooking Millennium Park and Lake Michigan, operating under a hybrid work model (in office Mondays/Wednesdays).

The Senior Media Manager owns and evolves paid media efforts across key social platforms, while driving forward-thinking testing, innovation, and client storytelling. If you enjoy the "science" of marketing, turning complex data into scalable growth and finding the "win" in every A/B test, then this is the role for you.

What you'll do:

  • Lead paid social strategies across Meta and TikTok, balancing hands-on-keys execution with high-level strategy and client storytelling.
  • Drive growth for mobile app portfolios, planning and optimizing campaigns to scale installs, user acquisition, and down-funnel in-app revenue.
  • Own end-to-end campaign management, including daily pacing, budget allocation, and in-flight optimizations to maximize ROAS.
  • Build a structured test-and-learn program across audiences, creative variations, and placements to continuously find the "win".
  • Translate complex data into clear performance stories and actionable next steps for clients.
  • Collaborate internally with strategy, analytics, and creative teams to align campaign structures with broader client goals.

What you'll bring:

  • 4-8 years of experience in paid social, performance marketing, or digital strategy.
  • Deep, recent hands-on expertise optimizing and scaling campaigns within Meta Ads Manager and TikTok Ads Manager.
  • Mobile App Exposure (Highly Preferred but Trainable): Experience with or a strong foundational understanding of mobile app growth, user acquisition, or app tracking tools.
  • Data-Driven Mindset: Comfort using platform data to spot trends, troubleshoot performance dips, and decide what to test next.
  • Client-Facing Confidence: Strong communication skills with the ability to present reports and decks directly to stakeholders.
  • No Engineering Required: Familiarity with app measurement/MMPs is a huge plus, but you do not need to be a technical developer or engineer—our data and tech partners have your back.
