We're looking for a Performance Account Manage, to lead paid search and paid social activity for a mix of premium fashion, luxury and lifestyle accounts, with a strong focus on Google and Meta. You'll own campaigns end to end, from planning and activation through to optimisation, analysis and client recommendations.
You'll join a close-knit independent agency of around 20 people, with a flat structure and a genuine emphasis on doing thoughtful, high-quality work. This role sits in one of our client hubs and is especially important because it helps give strong day-to-day support across both search and social while maintaining a high standard of client servicing and campaign delivery.
If you enjoy being hands-on in platforms, confident with clients, and able to connect performance data to bigger business goals, this is a role with real responsibility and visibility. We care most about strong platform expertise, good judgement, attention to detail, and someone who can hold their own in the room while working positively as part of a collaborative team.
