We’re Not Hiring “Ad Experts.” We’re Hiring People Who Learn Fast and Execute Cleanly.
(PLEASE DO NOT REPLY DIRECTLY TO THIS POST. IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO APPLY, FOLLOW THE STEPS AT THE END.)
Pay: Negotiable flat rate per 2-week period (USD), based on experience
Pay Timing: Paid once every 2 weeks. 80 hours per period, agreed upon at hire
Location: Remote (Philippines-based applicants only)
Role Type: Full-time | Long-term
Openings: 5 Media Buyer roles
Team Scope: Executes media buying under the Lead Media Buyer and Ops system
Why This Role Exists
Meta Ads rewards discipline, not guessing.
At Black Hat Strategy, performance doesn’t come from hacks or shortcuts. It comes from interpreting signals correctly, following systems, and making fewer — better — decisions.
We’re hiring five Media Buyers to execute inside a proven framework. Prior ad experience is helpful, but not required. What matters more is your ability to think analytically, follow process, and learn quickly.
This role exists so:
Campaigns are managed consistently
Budgets are paced correctly
Creative tests are structured, not random
Performance changes are interpreted before actions are taken
This is not a “figure it out as you go” role.
This is a learn fast, execute clean role.
What You’ll Actually Be Doing
You will not be left guessing.
You will be trained and supported.
As a Media Buyer, you will:
Manage Meta ad accounts for ecommerce brands
Launch and maintain campaigns using predefined structures
Monitor performance signals and pacing daily
Make changes only when signals justify it
Document actions and observations inside ClickUp
Flag issues early instead of reacting late
Escalate when something truly feels off — not every dip
Structured check-in with the Lead Media Buyer (if applicable)
You are not expected to know everything on day one.
You are expected to learn quickly and follow the system.
What This Role Owns (From the SOP)
Day-to-day campaign execution
Budget pacing and spend stability
Structured creative testing
Signal observation and documentation
Following escalation rules exactly as written
ClickUp task hygiene and update consistency
If performance changes, this role:
Observes first
Interprets second
Acts third
This Role Is for Someone Who…
Comes from an analytical or data-driven background
(analytics, operations, finance, QA, engineering, reporting, etc.)
Learns new tools and systems quickly
Is comfortable working with numbers and patterns
Can follow processes without cutting corners
Documents their work clearly and consistently
Stays calm when results fluctuate
You don’t need to be a media buying “expert.”
You do need to be sharp, curious, and disciplined.
This Role Is Not for Someone Who…
Wants full creative or strategic freedom
Needs constant reassurance or hand-holding
Makes changes based on gut feelings
Struggles with structure or documentation
Dislikes feedback or process
How You’ll Work With the Team
Operating Cadence & Communication
Lead Media Buyer sets standards… you execute within them
Escalation & Recovery Lead diagnoses issues… you provide clean inputs and context
Project Manager ensures flow… you keep your work visible and documented
Ops Head sets direction… you stay aligned and consistent
You are not operating alone.
You are part of a system.
Why You’ll Like Working Here
Clear training and expectations
Supportive learning environment
No chaos, no guessing
Leadership that values thinking and precision
Long-term role with growth into senior buying or leadership
We don’t reward noise.
We reward good judgment.
