Growth Collective is a performance marketing agency that works with fast-growing and category-defining ecommerce brands.
The paid media systems we build and scale are directly responsible for driving multi-million-dollar revenue growth for DTC brands such as Hush, CROSSNET, Kala, Coldture, BombTech Golf, and more.
Now, we’re looking for a Senior Media Buyer to join our team in 2026 — someone who can own accounts end-to-end, scale spend efficiently, and act as a trusted strategic advisor to our clients.
This role is ideal for a buyer who thrives at scale, moves fast, understands creative-led growth, and knows how to translate performance data into confident decisions.
The Role
As a Senior Media Buyer at Growth Collective, you will fully own a portfolio of accounts, managing roughly $1M/month in spend across Meta and TikTok. You’ll be responsible for execution, optimization, and performance outcomes — while collaborating closely with our Creative Strategists, who own creative direction and concept development.
You’ll be client-facing, strategy-driven, and deeply accountable for results.
