Paid Social Manager - #3629272

Full-Time No working from home possible
Herd Digital

This is a fast-growing, modern digital organisation working across performance marketing, creative, and technology. The business is built on a high-performance mindset, with a simple belief: the best ideas win when they are backed by data, speed, and ambition. Everything is focused on outcomes rather than hierarchy or unnecessary processes.


You’ll be joining a team that moves quickly, thinks commercially, and is always looking for ways to improve. Testing and optimisation are part of everyday decision-making, and if something can be improved, it will be explored and acted on.


There is a strong culture of ownership and trust. You’ll be given real responsibility, encouraged to challenge thinking, and supported to make an impact without unnecessary layers of approval. People who thrive here tend to be proactive, independent, and comfortable being accountable for results.


Although this role has a strong Paid Social focus, you’ll also gain valuable exposure to wider media strategy across channels including PPC, Programmatic, TV, Radio, and other digital and offline media. You’ll work alongside specialists across the business, giving you the opportunity to broaden your commercial understanding and contribute to truly integrated campaign planning.


The culture is ambitious and high-energy, but also balanced and supportive. High performance is rewarded through a generous bonus structure, profit share scheme, and additional incentives that reflect contribution and impact.


Outside of the day-to-day, the business invests heavily in its people and culture, with regular socials, team experiences, and annual international trips to destinations such as Barcelona, New York, and Rome.
