About the role

  • As the Director of Paid Search, you'll be the strategic and operational authority for CTC's Google Ads practice.
  • You'll work closely with our Growth Strategists, Creative Team, and Data Analysts to turn forecasts into revenue.
  • When challenges arise, you set the standard for how they get resolved - defining the escalation path, equipping your team to execute, and holding them accountable to the outcome.

Responsibilities

  • Own the executive-level relationship with a portfolio of CTC's most strategic clients - serving as their primary point of escalation, strategic counsel, and long-term growth partner
  • Lead quarterly business reviews (QBRs) that go beyond performance recaps - connecting paid search outcomes to the client's broader revenue goals, retention rates, and brand positioning
  • CTC is building the infrastructure for the next generation of performance advertising - and this Director owns a core piece of that.
  • You will lead the design and implementation of AI-powered automation workflows across Google Ads, with a specific focus on product feed optimization and intelligent campaign management using Claude as the underlying AI engine.
  • This is not a "learn about AI" role - it is a build-and-own role for someone who understands both the technology and the search outcomes it needs to drive.
  • Design and own end-to-end automation workflows for GoogleShopping feed optimization - using Claude to dynamically rewrite product titles, descriptions, and attributes based on search intent, seasonal signals, and performance data
  • Build Claude-powered pipelines that analyze Google Ads account data- surfacing anomalies, budget inefficiencies, and optimization opportunities faster than any manual review process
  • Develop automated ad copy generation and testing workflows using Claude - enabling the team to run higher-velocity creative tests across Google Search and Performance Max without proportional increases in manual workload
  • Partner with engineering and operations to productize the most effective automation workflows - turning one-off scripts and prompts into repeatable, scalable systems deployable across the entire client portfolio

Requirements

  • Meaningful experience with Performance Max - including asset group structure, audience signal strategy, and how to interpret attribution in a PMax environment
  • Practical, hands-on experience with AI tools - specifically using LLMs
  • You are the face of CTC's paid search practice to clients at the executive level.
  • Deep, hands-on command of Google Ads - you can do a full account audit, identify structural issues across campaigns, bidding strategy, and feed quality, and prescribe a fix without needing to ask someone else
  • Expert-level understanding of Google Shopping feed architecture - you know how product data quality affects campaign performance and can diagnose feed issues as well as any specialist
  • Direct people management experience - you have developed, coached, and (when necessary) performance-managed team members, and you have concrete examples of each
  • Executive-level communication skills - you can write a sharp two-paragraph client update or present a 30-minute QBR to a CMO with equal confidence

Compensation

  • Six-figure compensation.
  • Fully remote with the ability to pick your schedule.
  • Embrace autonomy as a core value, with clear expectations, regular 1:1 feedback sessions, and measurable quality benchmarks to support personal growth.
  • Exceptional work is recognized and rewarded, with weekly check-ins for accountability, ensuring you're consistently challenged and engaged with new opportunities daily.
  • Demonstrated track record managing $2M+ in annual Google Ads spend across Search, Shopping, and Performance Max, with portfolio-level accountability for ROAS, retention, and revenue growth

Benefits

  • Proactively identify risks to account health, budget pacing, or client satisfaction - and address them before they surface as problems, not after
  • Educate and upskill the broader team on AI automation capabilities democratizing access to these tools so that automation benefits every account, not just those you personally manage
  • TIME OFF | When you're at CTC, you're firing on all cylinders.
  • To make that possible, we offer a Flexible Time Off policy where you will coordinate with your supervisor to take time away from the office for rest, travel, and a variety of other things that are important to you!
