About Us

Wing Assistant is one of the world’s largest virtual talent companies. We are a venture-backed scaleup, based in Silicon Valley, but operate fully remote. Wing is scaling rapidly, and looking to build out a world-class marketing team

Overview

Wing Assistant invests heavily in paid acquisition (millions per year) and drives significant traffic. Your mandate : own our multi-channel paid engine—profitably scale high-intent demand across Google Ads, Microsoft / Bing Ads, and Meta, while expanding into / experimenting with Taboola, Outbrain, MNTN, Reddit, and other channels. You will be measured on pipeline & CAC.

All other

paid ads, including testing, optimization, and scaling

2) Measurement & Optimization :

Own tracking & data hygiene with GTM / GA4 + offline conversions to CRM (Deal Created / Won).

Daily optimization on CPL, CPC, CTR, CVR, lead-to-Deal rate, CPA / Deal, CAC, ROAS / pipe; use incrementality tests (geo / cellular holdouts where applicable).

Partner with SEO to align keyword themes, SERP coverage, and minimize cannibalization.
