When you hire a paid media manager through RevHires, you get a dedicated, remote specialist placed directly on your team, screened on live account audits, working US hours and backed by a 12-month replacement guarantee. Pay from $10 per hour.
Ad platforms are very good at taking credit. Smart bidding chases the easiest conversions, Meta counts view-throughs, and the dashboard looks great while your sales team complains about lead quality. A paid media manager who trusts those numbers without checking them will scale exactly the wrong campaigns, and you will pay for it twice: once in spend, once in wasted sales time.
RevHires places paid media managers who start from your CRM, not the ad platform. They feed offline conversions back to Google and Meta, structure accounts so the algorithm learns from qualified pipeline, and kill spend that looks good in-platform but never closes. You hire them directly, they work your US hours from Latin America, South Africa or Egypt, and you keep full control of your accounts.
A paid media manager plans, launches and optimizes paid advertising across search, social, display and video. You will also see the role called PPC manager, performance marketing manager, paid acquisition manager or senior media buyer. They own account structure, bidding strategy, audience targeting, creative testing and conversion tracking, and they answer for cost per lead, cost per acquisition and return on ad spend. At smaller companies one person runs every platform. At larger ones, a paid media manager sets strategy and oversees buyers by channel.
Builds Google, Meta, LinkedIn and Microsoft Ads accounts with clean campaign architecture, naming conventions and budget logic. Separates brand from non-brand and prospecting from retargeting, and sets exclusions so campaigns do not cannibalize each other or bid against your own organic traffic.
Chooses bid strategies by campaign maturity and conversion volume, sets target CPA or ROAS goals, and paces monthly budgets daily. Catches overspend, learning-phase resets and budget-limited campaigns early, so you never discover a blown budget on the last day of the month.
Implements and audits pixels, Meta Conversions API, Google enhanced conversions and Tag Manager events. Connects CRM stages back to the ad platforms through offline conversion imports, so bidding algorithms optimize toward qualified leads and closed revenue instead of raw form fills.
Runs a structured testing calendar for hooks, formats, offers and landing pages. Briefs designers and video editors with clear hypotheses, reads results only once there is enough volume to trust them, and retires fatigued ads before frequency climbs and costs spike.
Builds search keyword lists with tight match-type control and disciplined negative keyword hygiene. On social, builds lookalikes from high-value customer lists, layers first-party audiences, and tests broad targeting against defined segments to find where incremental conversions actually come from.
Makes sure every ad group points to a page that matches its promise. Flags message mismatch, slow load times and weak forms, and works with design or CRO owners on variants. A strong ad sent to a weak page wastes every click it earns.
Delivers weekly reports by platform, campaign and audience with spend, CPL, CPA, ROAS and pipeline sourced. Reconciles platform numbers against CRM data, calls out discrepancies honestly, and recommends specific budget moves with the expected impact of each one.
Monitors disapprovals, suspensions, billing issues and policy changes, especially in regulated categories like healthcare, finance and supplements. Writes compliant copy from the start and handles appeals quickly, so campaigns do not sit dark during your strongest selling days.
Every profile includes a voice clip, enterprise background, English level and a scored role play.
Paid media candidates get read-only access to a sandbox ad account with historical data and two hours to deliver a written audit covering wasted spend, tracking gaps and a prioritized fix list. Finalists walk a RevHires reviewer through that audit live, then rebuild one campaign from scratch while explaining their bid strategy and structure choices. We verify platform experience through reference checks with former managers and test written English with ad copy for a US audience.
The US benchmark is PayScale's national average base salary for a media manager with paid media skills, plus a 30% load for payroll taxes and benefits. It does not include recruiting fees, bid management software or training. Through RevHires, a full-time hire in this role typically earns $10 to $25 per hour. The RevHires figure uses the top of that range, $25 per hour at 40 hours, paid direct to your hire or through RevHires, plus one flat placement fee. Want the team managed for you?

You manage them directly. Agencies spread senior attention across many accounts and often charge a percentage of spend, which rewards them for spending more. A placed paid media manager works only on your accounts, learns your sales cycle and reports to your team. Many clients keep an agency for creative production and place a manager in house to own strategy, tracking and budget decisions.
Yes, if they are screened for it. Ad platforms work the same everywhere. What matters is understanding US buyers, writing native-sounding copy, and knowing American seasonality like Black Friday, tax season and Q4 budget pushes. We test all three. Our candidates are college-educated, speak near-native English, and many come from enterprise backgrounds at companies like Google, Amazon and Microsoft.
Your US business hours. Campaign problems do not wait, so we only place candidates who commit to your schedule. That means they are online when you launch, when a disapproval hits on a Monday morning, and when your team meets to review weekly numbers. Overlap is full, not a two-hour window squeezed in at the end of their day.
You do, always. Your paid media manager gets user access to accounts that you own and you bill. We recommend permissions matched to their role, never shared passwords, and you can revoke access at any time. Every engagement includes an NDA and data handling protocols, and we sign BAAs for healthcare advertisers whose campaigns touch patient data.
After a role intake call where we define platforms, monthly spend, verticals and reporting needs, we run a custom search and deliver a vetted shortlist of 2 to 3 candidates within 48 to 72 hours. You interview finalists and make the offer. Role-specific onboarding then covers your accounts, tracking setup and reporting cadence before your new manager takes full control of live budgets.
Every placement is backed by a 12-month replacement guarantee. If your paid media manager is not working out in the first 12 months, tell us and we restart the search under the guarantee terms in your agreement. Because candidates prove themselves on a real account audit and a live rebuild before you meet them, most skill gaps surface during screening rather than on your budget.
See the shortlist, hear the voice clips, and get the right hire in front of your buyers fast.
