Responsibilities
Own the paid acquisition strategy for Google Ads, Meta, Display, and aggregators to drive efficient, profitable growth across 1,000+ locations
Build annual and seasonal plans and budget allocations by brand, region, and market, balancing demand goals, occupancy, and cost efficiency
Define and track KPIs such as cost per rental, cost per qualified call, reservation-to-rental conversion, and store-level ROAS, and tie them back to bottom-line outcomes
Make thoughtful decisions about the marketing mix (search vs Meta vs aggregators) based on incremental impact, marginal returns, and business priorities
Lead, coach, and develop two analysts who manage day-to-day trafficking, optimization, QA, and reporting across platforms
Set clear priorities, frameworks, and standards for testing, reporting, and documentation so the team executes consistently and efficiently
Review and approve key changes (bids, budgets, structures, creative) while empowering analysts to own and improve their areas
Oversee and guide large-scale Google Ads programs (search, PMax/local, remarketing) using NSA’s custom models and scripts with the Data Science team
Ensure the team continuously refines structures, bidding strategies, audiences, keywords, and creative to improve both volume and efficiency (CPA, ROAS)
Design and supervise structured tests (bids, audiences, messaging, landing experiences, channel mix) and ensure winning approaches are rolled out across brands and markets
Oversee Meta campaigns (prospecting/retargeting) and storage aggregators/marketplaces, ensuring they provide incremental volume at the right cost, not just more spend
Stay on top of platform changes, AI features, privacy shifts, and broader paid media trends; proactively propose new tactics, betas, and tests
Own relationships with Google and Meta reps, bringing forward NSA-specific hypotheses, pilots, and asks rather than waiting for suggestions
Partner with Data Science to evolve models, scripts, and measurement as platforms and the business change, with an eye on efficiency and mix
Tailor strategies by market, city, and store based on local competition, occupancy, and rate strategy
Use geo-targeting (radii, zip codes, custom trade areas) and location extensions to direct the right demand to the right facilities
Optimize for both online rentals and high-intent calls to the call center and stores (ad scheduling, call extensions, call quality outcomes)
Support new store openings, rebrands, and key seasonal periods with specific campaigns and launch plans
Partner with Data Science and Analytics to leverage custom models, dashboards, and attribution to guide where and how to invest
Produce clear, concise reporting for executives that explains performance in business terms (occupancy, revenue, NOI impact, efficiency), not just channel jargon
Work cross-functionally with Pricing, Operations, Call Center, Web Product, and SEO to ensure paid media supports broader market and store-level strategies
Qualification
Required
