Apply & track with Apply EdgeWe're hiring a Media Buyer at DANE STUDIORead this whole thing before you apply. If you skim it, you'll fail the first test.Most people who run ads are button-pushers. They boost posts, watch numbers go up and down, and call it strategy. We're not looking for that person.We're looking for someone who treats a client's ad account like it's their own money on the line. Because it is. Every shilling we spend has to come back with friends. That's the job.What you'll actually ownYou're not "assisting" anyone. You run the show on paid.You'll launch and manage ad campaigns across Meta and the platforms that matter. You'll write the email copy that gets opened and clicked. You'll build the static ad creative that stops the scroll. And you'll live in the numbers — testing, cutting what's dead, scaling what's working, and doing it again next week.One person. Ads, copy, creative. If you like hiding behind a team, this isn't for you.What we actually measureWe don't care how busy you look. We care about results:Ads launched, managed, and improved — not just "running"Cost per result going down while volume goes upEmail copy that people open and act onStatic creative that performs, not creative that just looks niceIf it doesn't move a number, it doesn't count.This is for you ifYou take ownership without being asked. You'd rather be told the hard truth than a comfortable lie. You get obsessed with why an ad worked or didn't. You can write — clearly, in a way that makes people move. You have taste, and you can prove it with work you've actually shipped. And you want to get dramatically better at this over the next 12 months.This is NOT for you ifYou need someone standing over your shoulder. You make excuses when a campaign flops. You think "creative" means pretty over profitable. You've never actually spent real ad budget. Or you want a quiet job where nobody checks your work.We check the work. Every week.The detailsFull-time. In-person / hybrid with the DANE STUDIO team. Net pay: KES 50,000/month. You'll work directly with the people who make the calls, so you'll learn fast and your work will be seen.We invest in people who invest in themselves. Do great work here and you don't stay in the same seat for long.
