Who is Genie Shopping?
Genie Shopping is a UK-based, high-growth performance marketing business operating through the affiliate channel and CSS ecosystem. As a certified Google CSS Premium Partner, we work with retail giants like Boots, ebay, Frasers, B&Q, Currys, and Lookfantastic, serving over 57 billion ad impressions to users across our network.
We differentiate ourselves through our managed CSS CPA model and our technical scale. We don’t act as a traditional CSS; we act as a performance partner. Alongside our self-managed SaaS offering, our core revenue comes from our CPA model, which means our success is directly aligned with our clients'. We are a driving force in the industry, leading the conversation through education, sponsorship, and active event contribution. This approach has led to huge success, doubling our growth in 2024 and setting new records in 2025.
We are a certified Great Place to Work with a remote-first setup. Our environment is small (~20 people) but ambitious. We value:
- Autonomy: We hire people who want to own their output. If you love solving complex problems and implementing your own ideas, you will thrive here.
- Connection: We prioritise culture over geography. We get together for proper team socials every quarter - think punting, cocktail making, and go-karting, to ensure we stay connected as people, not just colleagues.
The team is remotely based, but has fluidity in meeting in-person for client meetings, industry events, strategy days and team socials. There are requirements to travel to Cambridge around once a month, with London (or other UK locations) once a month on average.
Job Overview
We are looking for a Shopping Ads Specialist to support the expansion of our 'Self-Managed' CSS service. In this context, 'Self-Managed' refers to retailers who manage their own ad accounts and ad spend, while leveraging our CSS partner status for improved performance. Unlike our traditional hands-on PPC roles, this is a client-facing strategic position designed for someone who can guide large retailers on maximising the opportunity available to them through our CSS partnership.
This role is perfect for a candidate with an entrepreneurial mindset - someone who is excited to get involved with all aspects of a business and steer its strategic growth. You will take your Shopping Ads knowledge and expertise to shape the service and product offering, spot new opportunities, build tools that align with customer needs, and drive retailer acquisition and success.
You will act as the bridge between our retail partners, our internal knowledge base, and Google’s own.
