Job Description
Job Overview
MVR Digital is hiring a Senior Paid Search Strategist to own Google strategy and execution for a portfolio of premium and luxury DTC brands. This is a hands-on role. You will be in Google Ads daily and you will also set the strategy and defend it on a client call.
About the Company
MVR Digital is a performance marketing agency with hubs in NYC, Chicago, and Denver, working with premium and luxury DTC and e-commerce brands to grow profitably online. Adweek named us one of the Fastest Growing Agencies. We work across Meta, Google, TikTok, and Connected TV, plus email, creative, and landing pages. The team is fully remote, direct, and focused on results.
Our Values
- Act Like an Owner
- Clarity over Complexity
- Serve Clients' Best Interest
- We Win Together, We Lose Together
- Data-Informed, Human-Led
What You Will Do
- Own Google strategy and daily execution across Search, Shopping, Performance Max, and YouTube
- Manage $100K+ per month in Google spend against ROAS, CPA, and MER targets
- Own Merchant Center and feed health end to end. Diagnose disapprovals, feed gaps, and Shopify sync issues yourself
- Structure PMax deliberately: asset groups, exclusions, signal inputs, and a clear read on what is working inside it
- Hold a real position on branded spend and incrementality, and walk a client through it
- Support Meta, TikTok, and other channels where they affect your accounts, and hold a point of view on cross-channel allocation
- Lead the paid search portion of client calls. Explain performance clearly, bring a recommendation, push back when a request will not serve the client
- Mentor junior buyers and act as the QA gate for paid search before it goes live
What We Are Looking For
- 4+ years hands-on Google Ads, agency or high-growth brand side
- Deep Search, Shopping, and Performance Max expertise, plus Merchant Center and feed troubleshooting
- Personally owned $100K+ monthly Google budgets with documented efficiency gains
- DTC or e-commerce ownership. Premium or luxury AOV experience is a strong differentiator
- Working Meta knowledge. Not depth, but enough to speak to it credibly
- GA4, Looker Studio, and attribution fluency
- Fluent, confident English and strong client communication. This role is client-facing
- Comfortable across multiple accounts in a fast-moving remote environment
Perks and Benefits
- Paid time off
- Paid company holidays
- Flexible Fridays
- Remote first collaboration
- Quarterly performance bonus potential
Role Details
- Full time, contract
- Location: remote
MVR Digital is a performance marketing agency built on a principle that matters: your brand deserves strategic thinking across the entire customer journey, not piecing together disconnected tactics. We're an all-senior team that handles everything from acquisition to retention, treating each channel as part of a cohesive growth system rather than isolated campaigns.
Our core strength is paid media across Meta, Google, TikTok, Pinterest, Reddit, and emerging platforms, but we've built our agency around the reality that sustainable growth requires more. That means SEO and organic search strategies that compound over time. Email marketing that turns customers into repeat buyers. Influencer and UGC partnerships that build authentic social proof. Creative capabilities spanning video, animation, and design that keep your brand fresh across every touchpoint. And the data infrastructure to tie it all together so you actually understand what's driving results.
Recognized as an ADWEEK Fastest Growing Agency, we've developed deep expertise in categories that demand sophisticated, coordinated approaches: luxury goods, skincare and beauty, automotive services, and restricted verticals where creative strategy, compliance, and multi-channel execution need to work in lockstep.
We don't sell transformation stories or guarantee specific ROAS. What we offer is rigorous testing, transparent reporting, and strategic oversight from people who've been doing this long enough to know that sustainable growth comes from orchestrating multiple channels intelligently, not chasing quick wins on one platform. Our clients tend to stick around for years because we're genuinely invested in building something that lasts.
If you're looking for a partner who can handle the complexity of modern marketing without farming pieces out to freelancers or junior teams, let's talk about what you're building.
