Frequently Asked Questions

Based on Revere Recruitment's 2025 Salary Guide, Paid Performance Specialists in Australia typically earn between $85,000 and $115,000. Senior specialists and paid media managers with a proven track record of profitable ROAS can command $110,000–$145,000. Platform complexity (managing multi-channel vs single channel) and budget ownership also influence salary.
It depends on your business and budget. At smaller to mid-sized brands, a generalist who manages Meta, Google, and potentially TikTok is most practical. At larger brands with significant budgets, channel specialists (paid social vs paid search) are more common. We can help you think through the right structure for your team.
Meta Ads and Google Ads are the baseline requirements for most Australian ecommerce roles. TikTok Ads experience is increasingly valued. Attribution tool experience (Triple Whale, Northbeam, GA4) is a strong differentiator. Retail media experience (Amazon, Catch, Woolworths) is emerging as a valued skill.
Most Paid Performance Specialist roles are filled within 2–8 weeks from briefing to accepted offer. Performance marketing is a competitive candidate market - having a clear brief and a competitive salary range from the start makes a significant difference to speed.
