What you'll actually be doing

You'll take the reins on paid media strategy across a portfolio of exciting clients, making the big calls on where investment goes, how channels work together, and what opportunities we should be seizing next. This isn't a role where you're executing someone else's plan - you're the one building it.

Day to day, you'll be:

• Owning paid media strategy end-to-end - from defining the approach and frameworks to ensuring everything ladders up to your clients' commercial goals

• Leading and mentoring a small team, helping them grow their skills, build confidence, and operate across multiple paid media channels

• Making smart budget decisions based on commercial priorities, marginal returns, and growth opportunities — you'll know where every pound is working hardest

• Integrating paid media into wider cross-channel strategy, using your insight to shape the bigger marketing picture

• Introducing new opportunities and driving innovation across the discipline, including harnessing AI tools and workflows to work smarter and deliver better results

• Building strong senior client relationships, identifying growth opportunities, and playing a key role in new business pitches and proposals

• Communicating strategy clearly and persuasively to senior clients and internal stakeholders — you'll be the person in the room who brings clarity and confidence

You'll thrive here if you…

• Have deep, hands-on expertise across paid media channels (PPC, paid social, and beyond)

• Are a natural leader who gets genuine satisfaction from developing people around you

• Think commercially - you understand the link between media investment and business outcomes

• Love solving complex problems and making confident decisions under pressure

• Can hold a room with senior clients and inspire confidence at every level

• Are excited by AI and how it can transform the way teams work and deliver

• Want to be somewhere that recognises and rewards great work (hello, Employee of the Quarter! )
