Freelance Digital Consultant in City of London

We’re looking for a driven and curious Paid Social Consultant with around 2 years’ hands-on experience to join the team at Algebra. Algebra is a specialist performance marketing agency built around flexibility, expertise, and genuine partnership. We work differently from traditional agencies, offering clients deep channel knowledge and transparent collaboration, designed to drive meaningful performance. Our clients range from ambitious SMEs to global brands, and we support them in multiple ways: from fully managing performance marketing to consulting with established in-house teams looking to elevate their results. The work you’ll do will be varied, strategic, and genuinely impactful.

This role is hybrid, with 2 days per week in our London office and 3 days working from home.

The role: As a Paid Social Consultant, you’ll support the planning, execution, and optimisation of Paid Social campaigns across key platforms. You’ll work closely with senior team members while owning day-to-day delivery for your accounts. Responsibilities include:

• Building, optimising, and managing Paid Social campaigns across Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, TikTok, and Snap
• Supporting cross-vertical activity across B2B and B2C, from SMEs to global brands
• Monitoring performance, analysing data, and producing clear, insight-driven reports
• Contributing to internal best practices and helping improve processes
• Joining client calls, supporting relationship management, and communicating performance updates
• Assisting with new business activity, including research, audits, and contributing to pitch materials
• Using third-party tools for Paid Social management, reporting, creative automation, or workflow support (e.g., Smartly, Sprout, Hootsuite)

About You: You’ll thrive in this role if you’re proactive, analytical, and excited about developing your Paid Social expertise. We’re looking for someone who has:

• 4+ years’ experience in Paid Social
• Hands-on experience across Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, TikTok, and Snap
• Strong communication skills, articulate, personable, and confident with clients
• A genuine interest in Paid Social and a desire to keep learning and improving
• Experience working across multiple accounts or projects simultaneously
• Confidence building and implementing campaigns across B2B and/or B2C
• Solid analytical skills and experience working with performance data
• An understanding of paid media channels and a performance-driven mindset
• Awareness of platform trends, new features, and emerging opportunities
• Willingness to support new business pitches and contribute ideas to proposals
• Experience using third-party social management or creative automation tools (or an enthusiasm to learn)

What You’ll Own: You’ll support and manage a range of Paid Social accounts, taking responsibility for campaign builds, optimisation, reporting, and client communication (with guidance where needed). You’ll have room to grow, experiment, and develop your strategic thinking as you progress. All we ask is that you bring enthusiasm, curiosity, and a genuine passion for Performance Marketing.
