Senior Paid Media Manager

_{28th May, 2026}

We’re once again partnering with our very cool pals at Farsiight and this time? We’re looking for a Senior Paid Media Manager who really knows their sh*t.

Not in a “can launch a few campaigns and optimise some ads” kind of way either.

We’re talking proper Paid Media brains. Someone who understands how strategy, creative, performance and implementation all need to work together to drive seriously good performance.

Someone just as comfortable deep in-platform as they are leading strategy conversations across a portfolio of brands who trust their opinion.

Honestly? This one’s giving very “best kept secret agency role” energy.

Because Farsiight has quietly become one of Australia’s most respected indie performance agencies. There’s a reason they’ve been crowned one of Australia’s Best Places to Work and honestly? Once you meet the team, it all kinda makes sense. 

No big agency egos. No unnecessary noise. No weird hustle culture everyone pretends to enjoy.

Just ridiculously smart humans doing bloody good work with brands that don’t really need an introduction.

✨ Fully remote across Australia
✨ High trust, low ego humans
✨ Flexibility without the weird guilt-trip vibes
✨ A team obsessed with innovation, growth + building smarter ways of working
✨ The kind of brands agency people quietly wish they were working on
✨ Leaders who care about building a healthy, sustainable agency

And the client lineup? Elite. Think BlackMilk, Mocka, Kivari, Knobby, AgeMate + more.
Big brands. Clever strategy. Proper budgets. The kind of accounts where your thinking actually matters.

THE GIG

This role sits in a veryyy cool sweet spot. It’s the kind of gig people in Paid Media are always trying to find.

You’ll own a curated portfolio of SMB brands across Paid Search + Paid Social with end-to-end ownership across strategy, performance and client partnerships.

You’ll still be close to the platforms, but you'll also be deeply involved in strategy, creative, performance and identifying where the real growth opportunities sit. You'll work alongside some seriously clever humans across Paid Media, Strategy and Creative, with plenty of room to challenge thinking, bring ideas to the table and make your mark.

And honestly? One of the coolest things about this role is where it goes next.
Farsiight isn't looking for someone who might be ready for leadership one day. They're looking for someone who's already operating at that level.

The expectation? You'll own your patch, influence strategy, back yourself in client conversations and step into a leadership position within the first few months.

This isn't a "stick around for two years and we'll see what happens" progression story. The pathway is already there.

Your world will look a lil’ something like this:

• Managing a curated portfolio of SMB brands
• Owning strategy, client partnerships, implementation and performance end-to-end
• Building, scaling and optimising campaigns across Meta, Google, TikTok, LinkedIn, Pinterest + Bing
• Driving creative + performance testing across Paid Search + Paid Social
• Leading client conversations, reviews and growth planning
• Turning campaign data into commercial insights clients actually care about
• Spotting growth opportunities, trends + performance gaps early
• Collaborating closely with creative + strategy teams on smarter campaigns
• Finding smarter ways to work through AI, automation and whatever else is helping push Paid Media forward
• Managing healthy monthly budgets ranging from roughly $20K–$100K+

AND YOU?

You know your way around Paid Search + Paid Social, you’ve managed sizeable budgets and you’re probably at that point where you want more than just “manage the campaigns and send the report” energy.

You want more ownership. More influence. More of a say in the work and where it goes next.

You’re commercially clever, confident in-platform and know how to connect creative, strategy and performance in a way that drives really bloody good results.

You’ll likely bring:

• 4-5+ years in Paid Media / Performance Marketing
• Strong agency-side experience
• Genuine hybrid Search + Social capability
• Strong hands-on expertise across Meta + Google
• Experience owning strategy, implementation, client management and performance end-to-end
• Experience across B2B/B2C challenger brands or growth-focused businesses
• Confidence running your own patch and backing yourself to make things happen
• Solid GA4, GTM, attribution + tracking knowledge
• Already operating with leadership instincts and excited by the opportunity to step into a leadership position quickly

But honestly? The biggest thing they care about is mindset.

Curious people. Commercially clever people. People who care about doing brilliant work and want to be part of a team pushing Paid Media forward instead of running the same tired agency playbook on repeat.

People who actually give a damn about the work. Very important distinction.

PERKS THAT ACTUALLY PERK!

✨ Fully remote anywhere across Australia
✨ Flexible working hours
✨ Quarterly interstate team events
✨ Annual retreats with strong “future Bali/Thailand offsite” energy
✨ Monthly Farsiight Fridays half-day knock-offs
✨ Birthday off because working on your birthday feels deeply unnecessary
✨ Epic annual L&D budget
✨ Up to $115K + Super for the right human

Look… really GOOD Paid Media gigs are hard to come by right now.
But this one? It’s special.

Smart humans. Proper ownership. Big growth opportunity. An agency that actually feels modern in all the right ways.

So if your gut’s whispering “oooooh… this feels a bit like me”... Hit APPLY or come have a proper chat first. We’re very into that too.
