We're looking for a Senior Manager, Paid Media to own Sanity's paid media program: strategy, measurement, and testing agenda, and to build and lead the team behind it. You'll manage a $5M+ annual budget, working with agencies and contractors for execution while coordinating closely with demand gen, ABX, and RevOps internally. This is the first dedicated paid media hire, and it's a people-manager role from day one: you'll oversee two contractors immediately, with a plan to convert them to full-time hires by January, and grow the team to 2–3 people within your first year. You'll shape how this function works from the ground up, including the team you hire, coach, and lead to run it.
