Manage and optimize Google, Meta, and LinkedIn advertising campaigns; monitor budgets and performance, verify conversion tracking, conduct QA, update dashboards, and prepare reports. Support keyword research, SEO, landing pages, website updates, ad copy, competitor research, and client documentation. Use AI tools to investigate issues and recommend improvements while communicating proactively with consultants, clients, and agency leadership.
This is a remote position.
Rockstar is hiring a full-time Digital Ad Account Manager on behalf of a strategic marketing agency that
helps businesses, healthcare organizations, nonprofits, and public agencies grow through intentional,
results-driven marketing.
This role supports the agency's marketing consulting team with day-to-day campaign execution,
monitoring, and optimization across Google and Meta advertising. The VA will build and manage ad
campaigns, track daily budget pacing, verify conversion tracking, run quality assurance before
campaigns launch, and keep client account documentation current. This is fundamentally a
soft-skills-driven role: the agency will train on the technical specifics of Google Ads, but they need
someone who is naturally curious, proactive, and comfortable questioning whether a strategy is
actually working rather than following a checklist blindly.
The ideal candidate treats a drop in performance as a problem to investigate, not just report. They're
comfortable using AI tools like Gemini or ChatGPT to diagnose issues and propose next steps, and
they know how to bring a well-reasoned recommendation to the team rather than waiting to be told
what to do.
About the Client
This is a strategic marketing agency built on the belief that strategy comes before tactics, and that
every team member plays an important role in client success. Their culture is collaborative, fast-paced,
and focused on continuous improvement, with core values centered on integrity, intentionality,
collaboration, being results-driven, and staying goal-oriented.
The agency values team members who take ownership, communicate proactively, solve problems
independently, and are always looking for better ways to do things. They've had prior team members
either get too comfortable with "this is how we've always done it" or blindly accept automated
recommendations without questioning whether they actually served the client, this role exists
specifically to avoid both of those failure modes
