Build, Scale & Operate Leading DTC Brands alongside A-Players Maneuver Marketing Our Vision, Mission & Success are fuelled by our commitment to be a driving force of positive change to the health of everyday consumers, providing conscious, high-quality & innovative supplement products. In just 5 years, we kicked off our own DTC Health & Wellness brand from scratch and scaled it to USD$100M+ in annual sales, serving more than 3,000,000 customers worldwide with an average of 4,000 daily orders across 9 SKUs. These results caught the attention of The Financial Times, as they ranked us among APACs top High-Growth Companies. We have also been awarded 2nd place on the E50 Awards, jointly organised by The Business Times and KPMG in Singapore. This is just the beginning of our journey, and you could be part of the next stage of our growth! Your Next Role We are looking for a highly skilled and ambitious Growth Strategist with at least 3 years of experience, managing at least $1M per month in ad spend to join our team. Today, the role of a Senior Media Buyer has evolved into a Growth Strategist - it's no longer enough to work inside ad accounts - effective marketing requires critical thinking, conducting deep research, translating insights into ideas, and taking those ideas through implementation. Of course, you cannot do this alone. As a Growth Strategist at Maneuver, you will lead a product marketing team comprising a copywriter, creative strategist, designer, and media buyer to grow 2 flagship products. You'll meet with fellow Growth Strategists to exchange ideas and best practices regularly. The product marketing team is supported by cross-functional teams: (a) Influencer & Partnerships, (b) Videos, (c) Marketplaces, (d) Measurement, (e) Retention, (f) Other Channels (e.g. AppLovin, Google), and (g) Tech - all of which are essential to grow a product to $100M+ a year profitably. As such, the best candidates have a track record of building something from scratch and demonstrate strong resourcefulness to overcome challenges and explore uncharted territory. What You'll do Strategic Growth Planning & Opportunity Discovery You'll own the development and iteration of Meta-led growth strategies grounded in first principles, real-world data, and deep DTC competitive intelligence. Identify bottlenecks and opportunities through structured root-cause analysis across creative, media, offer, funnel, and product positioning. Systematically uncover under-tapped or untapped opportunities by reverse-engineering winning DTC products and offers across Google Search, Amazon, Shopify, Meta, YouTube, and adjacent channels. Analyze why products sell well (positioning, mechanism, claims, pricing, bundles, merchandising, distribution) and map those learnings to Maneuver's products to unlock new markets, angles, and growth paths. Prioritize high-leverage initiatives that balance short-term profitability with long-term strategic breakthroughs (new positioning, new audiences, new use cases). Act with urgency to gather new signals, test hypotheses, and adapt strategy in-market. Ruthlessly focus team energy on the highest-ROI initiatives that move core business metrics. Deep Market & Customer Research You'll lead a continuous discovery process that directly informs positioning, creative direction, funnel strategy, and media execution. Conduct social listening across Facebook Groups, Reddit, TikTok, Pinterest, reviews, and UGC ecosystems to surface pains, unmet needs, objections, and language patterns. Dive into product-level inputs (clinical studies, ingredient claims, AOV/LTV trends, customer reviews, refunds, CX tickets) to sharpen value propositions and positioning. Run deep competitive audits using tools such as Meta Ad Library, Atria, Transparency Center, VidTao, Google Search, and Amazon to identify messaging gaps, offer structures, and creative patterns. Triangulate qualitative and quantitative insights into clear strategic actions that unlock growth. Media Strategy Design and manage high-performance Meta ad systems that balance testing discipline with scalable performance. Architect account structures, naming conventions, and testing frameworks for clean data capture and fast learning. Execute and evolve bid strategies (Cost Cap, minROAS, Bid Cap, Highest Volume, Accelerated Bid Cap) based on signal quality, scale phase, and business context. Build creative testing matrices and scale frameworks (ABO/CBO/ASC setups, budget ramps, funnel staging, whitelisting). Ensure delivery systems and media execution align tightly with strategic hypotheses and growth objectives. Creative Strategy & Messaging Architecture You'll provide a bird's eye view of the creative and messaging ecosystem, ensuring alignment across teams and funnel stages. Co-own the high-level creative roadmap across TOF / MOF / BOF / Buyer stages with the copywriter and creative strategist Map current messaging by awareness level and sophistication, identifying gaps, redundancies, and misalignment. Assess whether ads, offers, and funnels are congruent with the intended messaging strategy at each stage. Co-own messaging architecture with the copywriter and creative strategist, helping segment and prioritize messaging buckets such as, but not limited to: Authority / expert-led Founder / brand story Mechanism-led education Objection handling Social proof & validation Use in-market performance signals to continuously refine angles and creative direction. Funnel Strategy, CRO & Project Ownership You'll own funnel strategy, CRO direction, and end-to-end project execution. Identify funnel bottlenecks and CRO opportunities in partnership with media buyers, creative strategists, and copywriters. Define what should change and why (structure, messaging emphasis, flow, offer presentation), and translate that into clear briefs for copywriters and designers. Collaborate with tech team members to implement changes once copy and mock-ups are finalized. Own projects end-to-end: scoping, prioritization, implementation, QA, launch, and post-launch monitoring. Ensure tight feedback loops post-launch, with media buyers monitoring test performance and providing analysis to inform next iterations. Collaboration You'll act as the connective tissue between strategy, media, creative, CRO, and cross-functional partners. Provide high-signal strategic and CRO briefs aligned on performance goals and compliance considerations. Partner closely with creative strategists, copywriters, and designers to ensure creative execution reinforces strategy. Collaborate tightly with media buyers on test design, optimization feedback, and learning agendas. Bring awareness to upstream partners (tech, supply chain, CX, retention) early to de-risk initiatives and accelerate execution. Build a high-ownership culture with clear rituals, accountability, and feedback systems. Data Fluency & Performance Optimization You'll turn data into decisions and ensure learning compounds over time. Design and interpret measurement frameworks (incrementality tests, attribution rules, holdouts) to guide investment decisions. Read metric pairs (CTR vs CVR, ROAS vs MER, AOV vs CAC) to isolate constraints and form clear hypotheses. Run regular performance cadences, documenting learnings and driving decisive pivots based on thresholds. Think in numbers-tracking CAC, ROAS, AOV, LTV, and confidently making ROI-based calls in real time. How You'll Succeed Maneuver is an OKRs, KPIs & data-driven company, we are not Mad Men (Well, not all), but Math Men. As a result, a number of metrics will constitute the basis of your performance and success within this role and the company: New customer sales and revenue, measuring Meta's impact across all distribution channels Advertising efficiency in terms of return on ad spend New marketing capabilities built with significant positive ROI What You Bring At least 3 to 7 years of relevant experience working with DTC brands as a media buyer / Growth Strategist. Strong "builder" desire - we built our brand to 9 figures in revenue profitably with 30 full-time employees and this would not have happened without a strong work ethic and a mission-driven culture. We aim to build the brand to 10 figures by the end of the decade, and this requires a strong sense of commitment to build something together with like-minded people. Strong analytical skills - ability to work with data, analyze metrics as a system, and understand the right marketing levers to improve results and performance. Persuasion skills - Some experience in direct response copywriting and persuasion principles - including but not limited to Robert Cialdini, Dan Kennedy, Eugene Schwartz, Gary Halbert, etc. Strong media buying skills - experience managing at least $30-100K a day in ad budget profitably with deep performance marketing skillsets.
