Performance-driven Online Marketing Lead specializing in SEA, SEO and team leadership.
What I'm looking for
I am a performance-driven Online Marketing Lead with extensive experience in SEA, SEO and end-to-end performance strategy for both B2C and B2B e-commerce businesses.
I have led and developed teams of varying sizes (from 3 to 17 people), built performance marketing functions from scratch, and scaled paid search, social and affiliate channels to drive growth.
My approach is highly analytical and data-driven: I design tracking and analytics setups, run CRO and A/B tests, and continuously optimize campaigns across Google Ads, Meta, Amazon Ads and programmatic channels.
I value empathy, agile methods, remote work, and coaching people — I focus on developing teams while delivering measurable business results.
