Job Summary

As a Performance Marketing Lead at Wati, youll own the strategy, execution, and optimisation of paid acquisition across Google Ads, Meta Ads, LinkedIn, and emerging channels globally.

Youll own performance end-to-end - from creative strategy, campaign setup and experimentation to landing page optimisation, budget allocation, and deciding what to scale, pause, or change. Your success wont be measured by lead volume alone, but by your ability to drive qualified pipeline, customers, and revenue while managing CAC efficiently.

This role is for someone who combines robust performance instincts, creative thinking, analytical rigour, and ownership - someone who stays close to the platforms, understands what drives B2B SaaS growth, and can quickly turn learnings into clear next actions.

What youll do

- Plan, launch, and optimise paid campaigns across Google Ads (Search, PMax, Display, Demand Gen), Meta Ads (Facebook Instagram), LinkedIn Ads, and other relevant channels across global markets
- Own paid acquisition end-to-end - from creative concepts and audience targeting to bid strategy, landing page experience, budget allocation, experimentation, and performance optimisation
- Drive performance beyond lead generation, connecting paid acquisition to qualified pipeline, customer acquisition, revenue, and CAC
- Own budget allocation and continuously make data-driven decisions on what to scale, pause, optimise, or change across campaigns, channels, audiences, and markets
- Develop and run structured experiments across creative, messaging, audiences, offers, landing pages, and campaign strategy to uncover scalable growth opportunities
- Monitor performance and proactively identify opportunities to improve CPL, CAC, conversion rates, pipeline efficiency, and overall marketing ROI
- Work closely with design and content teams to develop, brief, test,



and iterate on ad creatives - bringing both strong creative judgment and performance data into the process
- Partner with Growth, Product, and relevant teams to continuously improve landing pages and the end-to-end conversion funnel
- Build and maintain performance dashboards and reporting that connect campaign performance with downstream business outcomes and surface clear, actionable insights
- Stay on top of platform updates, algorithm changes, beta features, and industry trends - and actively test new opportunities where they can improve performance
- Conduct competitor analysis and ad benchmarking to identify whitespace and inform campaign and creative strategy
- Support budget planning, forecasting, pacing, and spend management across platforms and markets

Requirements

- 5-7 years of hands-on performance marketing experience, ideally with a strong track record in B2B SaaS, technology, or a similar recurring-revenue business
- Proven experience running and scaling paid acquisition across international markets
- Deep hands-on expertise in Google Ads and Meta Ads - you understand campaign architecture, bidding strategies, audience mechanics, creative performance, and how to diagnose and improve results
- Solid understanding of the B2B acquisition funnel, with experience optimising beyond leads toward qualified pipeline, customers, revenue, and CAC
- Proven experience owning meaningful paid media budgets and making independent decisions on budget allocation, scaling, and optimisation




- Strong creative thinking - able to develop hypotheses, identify creative opportunities, write sharp briefs, and understand why certain messages and creatives convert
- Experience with landing page optimisation, conversion rate optimisation, and structured A/B testing
- Strong analytical skills - comfortable using GA4, HubSpot, Supermetrics, or similar tools to understand performance across the funnel
- Strong understanding of conversion tracking, UTM structures, attribution models, and pixel/tag implementation
- Strong reporting and communication skills - able to turn complex performance data into clear insights, decisions, and next actions
