The Business

  • Established, profitable and digitally mature
  • Consumer-focused eCommerce brand with strong market presence

  • Drive bottom-of-funnel performance (leads, conversions, CPA)
  • Build dashboards and deliver clear insights
  • Work closely with brand, product, CRM and creative teams
  • Test and expand into new channels (TikTok, Snapchat) over time

What They’re Looking For

  • Deep, hands-on Google Ads expertise
  • Strong operator, comfortable in-platform daily
  • Experience managing meaningful budgets
  • Commercial mindset (ROAS, CPA, conversion optimisation)
  • Agency or in-house experience both considered
  • Meta Ads experience a bonus

Why This Role

  • Real ownership and autonomy
  • Strong, stable business (not early-stage chaos)
  • Clear impact on revenue
  • Collaborative marketing team
  • Opportunity to build something properly from day one
