Media Buyer (003 - 00407)

​​Looking for Philippines-based candidates

Job Role: Media Buyer

Compensation range: $1,500 AUD - $2,750 AUD / Monthly

Engagement type: Independent Contractor Agreement

Work Schedule: This role is expected to align with the AU business hours (approx. 9 AM - 5 PM, Monday to Friday) for collaboration, but as a contractor, you’ll have flexibility in how you manage your time.

Role Overview: We are looking for a data-driven, strategic, and highly organized Media Buyer to join our team. In this role, you will be responsible for planning, executing, optimizing, and reporting on paid media campaigns across multiple digital platforms. Your work will directly impact our brand visibility, lead generation, and overall marketing performance.
