Lead New Social Platforms & Growth Channels (x/f/m)

Backend Developer • Lead • On-site • Full-time • 📍 Berlin

HelloFresh is looking for a lead to own its social channel diversification agenda end-to-end from Berlin-Kreuzberg. Meta is the core channel, but the 2026 ambition is to scale TikTok into the #2 social channel on incrementality-steered investment, and to prove (or kill) Pinterest, Snap and other emerging platforms on the same evidence bar. You will be the in-house TikTok expert, run structured pilots, design incrementality tests, then hand mature operations to the broader team.

Stack

Responsibilities

  • Scale up TikTok as a native-first growth engine: own account architecture, bidding, audience strategy and the creative cadence the platform demands
  • Partner directly with TikTok (joint steering committee, beta access, TTCX program, Managed Services) to unlock funding and capability gaps
  • Define TikTok creative strategy with the Creative Strategist and Influencer team, scale Spark Ads and creator partnerships, and build the iteration cadence the 2-3 day creative fatigue window requires
  • Run structured launch playbooks for Pinterest and Snap: signal infrastructure (CAPI, pixel, EMQ), account setup, platform-fit creative, market selection and clean incrementality tests before committing budget
  • Design and run conversion lift/geo experiments to decide which channels stay, scale or sunset, and calibrate MMM with each result
  • Own channel-by-channel measurement across emerging channels: overlap analysis with Meta, audience cannibalization and true incremental CAC
  • Scout future channels (Reddit, ChatGPT/Copilot Ads, retail media, emerging short-video platforms) and maintain a prioritized backlog
  • Hand over proven, operationalized channels to the broader paid social team with documented playbooks

Requirements

  • 5+ years in paid social or performance marketing, with deep hands-on TikTok Ads Manager fluency at a high-spend D2C, subscription or e-commerce business
  • Personally scaled a TikTok account from low single-digit % of spend into a meaningful contributor
  • Working knowledge of Pinterest Ads Manager and Snap Ads Manager, or a credible track record of taking a new platform from zero to scale fast
  • Strong incrementality and experimentation muscle: able to design a CLS or geo test, defend the methodology and read the result without spinning it
  • Sharp creative instinct for short-form video and platform-native content
  • Comfortable building from scratch: pixel setup, account architecture, partner relationships and internal stakeholder buy-in
