This is a hands-on performance marketing role with Paid Search at its core.

As our Paid Media Specialist you'll work closely with the Digital Marketing Manager and Performance Marketing Manager, you will be responsible for the day-to-day performance of Zzoomm's paid media activity, with a particular focus on Google Ads and Microsoft Advertising.

We work with specialist external agencies, but we want to build stronger Paid Media expertise within Zzoomm.

You will work alongside our agencies rather than simply receiving reports from them: getting into the platforms and the data yourself, understanding what is driving performance, spotting opportunities, questioning recommendations and helping ensure we are getting the best possible return from our investment.

This role would suit someone who genuinely enjoys Paid Search.

You will be curious about why performance has changed, comfortable digging into campaign and conversion data to find the answer, and always looking for the next opportunity to generate more customers or improve acquisition efficiency.

Paid Media will be your specialism, but you will be part of a wider digital marketing team and will also have the opportunity to support activity across Paid Social, CRO, SEO, affiliates, CRM and the website.

Job requirements

Skills & Experience required to do this role...

Essential

• At least 3 years' hands-on experience managing or optimising Paid Search campaigns.
• Strong practical knowledge of Google Ads, Microsoft Ads & Meta Ads; you should be comfortable working directly within live accounts rather than relying solely on agency reporting.

• Enjoys digging into data and turning what you find into an action.
• Constantly asks "what can we test next?"
• Understands that increasing volume and improving efficiency have to be balanced.
