Remote E-commerce PPC Specialist
Annual Salary: $151,204
Let’s Talk About Why This Role Matters
Picture this: you’re running ads that don’t just get clicks—they turn curious browsers into loyal customers. That’s what this job’s all about. Our e-commerce world moves fast. People change how they shop almost overnight, and we keep up by staying one step ahead.
Here, you’re not just pressing buttons in an ad platform. You’re shaping the way thousands of shoppers find us, interact with us, and eventually buy from us. Every campaign you launch, every keyword you fine-tune—it’s all part of a bigger story where your work has a direct impact on sales.
You know that little rush when you tweak a bid and suddenly your ROAS jumps? Yeah, we live for that. And if you’ve been looking for a place where PPC isn’t an afterthought but a primary growth engine, you’ve just found it.
How Your Day Will Flow
Ever wondered what a “normal” day looks like in PPC? Honestly, there’s no such thing. But here’s a taste.
- Morning check-in: You grab your coffee (or tea—we don’t judge) and hop into the ad dashboards. Google Ads, Meta, maybe even TikTok—wherever we’re running. You scan yesterday’s performance, check trends, and flag anything unusual.
- Strategy tweaks: If a keyword’s costing too much without converting, you adjust. If a creative’s suddenly taking off, you double down.
- Creative time: You work with our design folks to brainstorm ad visuals. Maybe it’s a carousel showing new arrivals. Perhaps it’s a playful video with a trending sound.
- Reporting: You pull numbers—not just for the sake of it—but to tell a story about what’s working and what’s next.
- Team sync: In our weekly huddles, you swap wins and struggles. Someone from SEO might mention a keyword surge you can test in ads. Someone else might share a new competitor angle they spotted.
And just like that, your day’s gone from routine to “how did it get to 5 PM already?”
Why This Isn’t Just Another PPC Job
Plenty of companies treat PPC like a side project. We don’t. Paid traffic is our growth heartbeat.
That means you’ll get:
- A healthy ad budget that lets you test without feeling like you’re burning pennies.
- Access to premium tools—no more wishing you had that tracking software everyone’s talking about.
- A team that gets what PPC takes, so you won’t be fighting for attention or budget.
- Room to try ideas—yes, even the “this might just work” ones.
Remote work can feel lonely sometimes, right? That’s why we keep things connected with Friday wrap-ups, random Slack shoutouts when someone lands a big win, and even the occasional virtual game night. You’re part of a team, not just a name in the chat list.
The Skills That Will Help You Thrive Here
We’re not into endless bullet lists, but here are the big ones:
- PPC platform mastery: Google Ads, Meta Ads, and bonus points if you’ve played around with TikTok, Pinterest, or Amazon Ads.
- E-commerce know-how: You understand how shoppers think online. You know why a cart gets abandoned and how retargeting can bring them back.
- Numbers brain + creative spark: You’re comfortable in spreadsheets, but you also know that a witty headline or great image can be just as powerful as a significant change.
- Analytical thinking: You ask why—not just what. If CPC jumps, you dig in until you know the reason.
- Adaptability: The PPC world changes faster than a trending meme. You roll with it.
And hey, if you’ve ever geeked out over a clean UTM setup or found yourself explaining conversion tracking at a dinner party, you’ll fit right in.
Real Wins Our PPC Team’s Had Lately
Instead of vague “we grew X%” lines, here’s what’s really been happening:
- Last month, Sarah tested a quirky ad angle about “gifting yourself” that doubled conversions for a seasonal product.
- We ran a 48-hour flash sale with ultra-specific retargeting—and sold out in 36 hours.
- One of our biggest wins? Turning a campaign that was losing money into a top-performer just by fixing targeting and creative.
That’s the kind of energy you’ll be stepping into.
Your First 90 Days
We want you to hit the ground running, while also allowing time to learn our style.
Week 1–2:
- Meet the team, explore our ad accounts, and understand our product lineup.
- Take over small daily checks while shadowing current campaigns.
Week 3–6:
- Own a campaign from start to finish—planning, launching, optimizing.
- Suggest one creative test and run it.
Week 7–12:
- Manage multiple campaigns with minimal oversight.
- Present your first performance review with recommendations.
By day 90, you’ll be running key campaigns and making calls that move the needle.
What You’ll Have Access To
We’re big believers in setting people up for success. You’ll have:
- Ad budgets that actually let you experiment.
- Creative support from designers and copywriters.
- Analytics dashboards so you’re not waiting on data.
- Continuous learning budget—take that PPC course, attend that virtual summit.
And yes, because this is fully remote, you get to do all this from wherever you work best—your home office, a café, or even a quiet corner in a library.
What Success Looks Like in This Role
It’s not about just spending the budget. It’s about:
- Hitting ROAS targets without sacrificing long-term growth.
- Finding those hidden opportunities—the search term no one else noticed, the audience segment quietly converting.
- Sharing wins and failures openly so we all get better.
- Keeping ads fresh so our customers don’t get banner blindness.
The Challenges You’ll Face (And Why They’re Worth It)
Let’s be real: PPC isn’t always smooth sailing. Some days, you’ll watch a campaign tank for no apparent reason. Or you’ll spend hours on a creative that flops.
But here’s the thing—those are the days that sharpen your skills. They’re the moments you dig into data, try something new, and learn more than you would from any win. And when that next big success hits? It feels even better.
How We Work Together
Even though we’re remote, we keep things tight-knit.
- Weekly team calls to share updates and ideas.
- Open Slack channels for quick questions (or the occasional meme drop).
- Shared project boards so nothing slips through the cracks.
We believe in giving people autonomy—once you’ve proven you can run with something, you run with it.
Growth Opportunities
This role isn’t a dead-end. If you love staying deep in campaign work, great—you can keep building that expertise. If you want to step into strategy or management down the line, we’ll support that too.
We’ve had PPC specialists move into:
- Full performance marketing leads.
- E-commerce strategy roles.
- Training positions, mentoring the next wave of PPC pros.
The Perks Beyond Pay
Aside from the $151,204 annual salary, you’ll get:
- Flexible hours—we care about results, not clock-watching.
- A learning budget for courses, conferences, and books.
- Paid time off that actually gets used.
- A remote-first setup, so no commute ever.
