We are looking for a creative, analytical, and proactive Social Media & Paid Ads Manager to manage Chasing Illusions’ digital presence and drive measurable business growth.
You will be responsible for managing our social media platforms, strategically promoting our existing portfolio and project content, running paid advertising campaigns across Meta, Google, LinkedIn, and X, and generating qualified business enquiries.
