A small piece of paper with numbers that have the power to change a life forever! Okay... let's replace the paper with an app and one person with 600,000+ monthly users. This is our business!

📌 Your Mission

As (Senior) Performance Marketing Manager (m/f/d) your mission will be to scale NextLotto’s user acquisition engine across paid channels—including Meta, TikTok, Google Ads, DSPs, Apple Search Ads, CTV/LTV, and emerging platforms—as well as ASO. As Lotto Scanner continues its rapid growth and our paid budgets expand, you will partner with the existing Performance Marketing team to drive day-to-day campaign management, creative testing, reporting, tracking, and channel optimization. Your ultimate goal will be to lower CAC, build a robust, high-velocity creative-testing muscle, and unlock and scale entirely new acquisition channels.

🎯 Your Tasks & Responsibilities

• Daily campaign management on owned channels (Meta, ASA, Google Ads, TikTok) — bid optimisation, budget pacing, audience and placement testing
• Creative testing — work with the creative team to brief, ship and iterate ad creative; document learnings
• Performance reporting — weekly dashboards, monthly deep-dives, channel-level CAC, ROAS, Conversion Rates and quality-of-acquisition metrics (e.g. Payback period & Retention Rate)
• Channel testing — design and run structured pilots on new channels with proper measurement and stop/scale decisions
• Tactical coordination with our external partners on CTV/LTV/programmatic execution — briefs, weekly check-ins, creative reviews
• Attribution + tooling — keep our MMP setup clean (Adjust), work with our data team to understand, analyze data and MMM
• Cross-team coordination with organic Social Media, Brand, CRM, and Creative
• Stay close to compliance (German lottery regulation / GlüStV,GGL) — work within paid-marketing guardrails specific to lotteries

🚀 Your Key Competencies

Must-have

• 3–5 years of hands-on paid user acquisition or performance marketing for a B2C app or consumer product
• Deep platform expertise on at least 2 of: Meta Ads Manager, TikTok Ads Manager, Google Ads, Apple Search Ads.
• Familiarity with programmatic display / DSPs (DV360, The Trade Desk, etc.)
• Hands-on creative testing experience — you can brief creative, design A/B structures, read results and iterate
• Strong attribution and data literacy — working knowledge of MMPs and attribution (Adjust, AppsFlyer, Branch), iOS/Android tracking, SKAN, event mapping. You love to work with data!
• Analytics fluency — comfortable with dashboards, GA4, Adjust or similar, spreadsheet modelling; can build clean dashboards
• Demonstrated track record of lowering CAC at scale with documented case studies
• Fluent English (working language). German is a plus, not a requirement.

Nice-to-have

• Experience scaling a consumer app through paid
• Web-to-app experience is a plus

• Experience with CTV/LTV paid (Joyn, RTL+, Waipu)
• Familiarity with MMM, incrementality testing, geo-lift experiments
• Influencer-paid or affiliate marketing background
• Experience working with a media agency partner

💡Your Soft Skills

• Ownership mindset — take responsibility for channel performance end-to-end, don't wait for instructions
• Detail-oriented + data-driven — make decisions on evidence, not gut; check the numbers twice
• Curious experimenter — always testing, always learning, comfortable with structured failure
• Collaborative — work closely with creative, brand, social, CRM, data, and the partners
• Resilient under change — ad platforms shift constantly (iOS privacy, algorithm updates); rolls with it without losing momentum
• Strong communicator — explain paid performance clearly to non-paid people; don't hide behind jargon
• Comfortable with startup ambiguity — fast pace, lean processes, evolving priorities

🏆 Your Goals in the Role (6–12 months) → Impact

• Take full ownership of channels day-to-day (e.g. Meta, Apple Search Ads, Google Ads) — daily optimisation, creative briefing, budget pacing, performance reporting
• Drive measurable CAC improvement vs current baseline on owned channels (specific % target to be set after month 1)
• Build a creative testing framework — structured A/B testing on Meta and TikTok with proper learnings documentation, accelerating creative iteration
• Set up proper attribution and reporting infrastructure — dashboards that replace ad-hoc reporting; clean data flow from MMP (Adjust) into a single source of truth
• Test at least 2 new channels through structured pilots (e.g. native ads, DSPs for niche segments) with clear go/no-go decisions at the end
• Take coordination of the agency relationships on tactical execution (briefs, weekly reviews, creative reviews)
