We're looking for a passionate, organised and ambitious Paid Media Executive to join the rapidly growing Farrer Charity Programme.

Today, over 50 charities trust Farrer to help them reach more people, raise more money and deliver greater impact through paid media.

The Role

You’ll be responsible for building, managing, optimising and reporting on a portfolio of Google Ad Grant accounts, while also supporting the delivery of paid media campaigns across Meta and other platforms.

Working closely with our Charity Programme Manager and wider paid media team, you’ll develop your technical knowledge, gain exposure to multiple advertising platforms and play a key role in helping charities achieve their goals.

• You’ll report to and work closely with our Charity Programme Manager while collaborating regularly with the wider paid media team and Business Director.
• You’ll receive ongoing training across Google Ads, Google Ad Grants, Meta Ads and other paid media platforms as you develop.
• Life at FARRER

We're a small, ambitious team that genuinely enjoys working together.

We move quickly, support each other, celebrate wins and encourage everyone to contribute ideas regardless of experience or job title.

You'll have real responsibility from day one, access to senior team members and the opportunity to progress rapidly as the business continues to grow.

Most importantly, the work you do will have a genuine impact.

Every campaign you build has the potential to help charities recruit more volunteers, raise more donations and reach more people who need their services.
