Senior Media Buyer

**COMPANY** 🌱
=============

RYZE was founded in 2019 by Andrée Werner and Rashad Hossain, out of a parents' basement, with a mission to change daily health, starting with the morning routine: a nutrient-dense mushroom coffee delivering clean energy, mental clarity, and immune support. Built on a Direct-to-Consumer foundation with a performance marketing engine, RYZE achieved hockey-stick growth and a community of over 1 million active subscribers.

DTC remains the foundation, but RYZE has expanded into mass retail, quickly becoming the #2 items in Target's overall coffee category and is now executing a multi-channel expansion, with a cross-category launch coming in early 2027. RYZE is uniquely positioned to redefine how people think about daily wellness.

We’re a lean, fast-moving, mission-driven team who believe daily rituals create the foundation for living your greatest life, and we’re just getting started!

**WHAT YOU'LL DO** 🎯
====================

We’re hiring a Senior Media Buyer to lead Meta buying for RYZE. Meta is our largest acquisition channel and one of the larger DTC accounts on the platform — we are adding a dedicated testing budget on top of an account that is already scaling quickly. We need a senior operator who has run spend at this level before and can come in ready to own it.

This is a cross-functional role. The biggest levers in our account sit outside the ad manager: the creative we test and the landing pages we send traffic to. You’ll work every day with our in-house Performance Creative and CRO teams to decide what gets tested, read the results, and scale what works.

**Responsibilities will include:**

**Meta Account Strategy & Daily Management**

* Own campaign structure, budgets, bidding, and pacing across a high-spend account, including scaling structures and pre-launch ramp-up ahead of key moments.
* Grow spend on top of the existing baseline while holding first-time CAC and new-customer guardrails. Know when to push, when to hold, and how to tell the difference between noise and a real trend.

**Testing at Scale**

* Run a high-velocity testing program for creative and landing pages with a dedicated testing budget.
* Design clean tests, call them on clear rules, and move winners into scale.
* Partner with CRO on landing pages, listicles, advertorials, quiz funnels, and new page formats — including pages built for specific audiences, age groups, and stages of awareness.

**Creative Direction from the Buying Seat**

* Turn account data into clear briefs and feedback for the Performance Creative team: which angles, hooks, and formats to make more of, which to retire, and why.
* Own the feedback loop between buying performance and creative output — not just passing data, but driving decisions.

**Measurement & Attribution**

* Run the account on our attribution stack (Northbeam), reconcile it with platform reporting, and use incrementality testing to confirm that growth is real.
* Build repeatable buying processes and apply automation and the Meta API to reporting, rules, and launch workflows.

**Leadership & Team Development**

* Set the standard for the account — how it’s structured, how tests are run, and how decisions are made.
* Mentor and develop the buyers who work in the account.
* Help shape how RYZE staffs paid media as we expand to more channels.

**Professional Qualifications**

* 10+ years in paid social, with most of that time spent hands-on in Meta.
* Experience managing $100K+ per day (or $36.5M+ per year) in Meta spend for a DTC or subscription brand.
* Deep knowledge of Meta campaign structure, bidding, budget scaling, and creative testing at volume.
* Fluency with third-party attribution tools such as Northbeam, and experience designing and reading incrementality tests.
* A track record of working closely with creative and CRO teams, with a clear understanding of how landing pages and funnels drive account performance.
* Experience leading, mentoring, or setting direction for other media buyers.
* Strong judgment with data, and the ability to explain decisions plainly to leadership and partner teams.

**Core Competencies**

* Meta account mastery — Owns campaign structure, bidding, scaling logic, and pacing at high spend. Knows the platform deeply enough to know when it’s working and when it’s lying.
* Scaling judgment — Understands when to push spend and when to hold. Distinguishes signal from noise without over-indexing on either.
* Testing architecture — Designs clean, callable tests with clear rules. Moves winners to scale without letting good tests die from indecision.
* Creative partnership — Translates account data into clear creative briefs. Drives the feedback loop between buying performance and creative output.
* Attribution & measurement — Runs multi-touch and incrementality frameworks. Reconciles platform reporting with third-party tools to confirm growth is real.
* CRO fluency — Understands how landing pages, funnels, and page formats affect account performance. Briefs CRO with the same precision as creative.
* Process & automation — Builds repeatable systems. Applies Meta API and automation to reduce manual work and increase consistency.
* Senior leadership — Sets the standard others operate to. Develops buyers, shapes team structure, and communicates decisions clearly to leadership.
