We're looking for a masterful Paid Media expert to join our marketing team. Are you a strategist who views ad spend as an investment, not just a cost? We’re looking for an experienced Paid Media Manager who is obsessed with the "why" behind the "click." At Kubix, our clients, ranging from high-end fashion to global fitness brands rely on us for sophisticated, cross-channel growth strategies. As a Google Premier Partner, we operate in the top 3% of agencies in the UK. We need a data-native who can move effortlessly between the technical depth of Google Search and the creative pulse of Paid Social (Meta, TikTok, Pinterest). You won’t just be managing accounts; you’ll be architecting full-funnel engines that scale Shopify stores to their full potential. This role reports directly into the Paid Media Director.
What You'll Do
- Full-Funnel Orchestration: Design and execute holistic paid strategies across Google (Search, Shopping, PMax) and Paid Social (Meta, TikTok, Pinterest, Snapchat).
- Data-First Optimisation: Get "under the hood" of accounts to diagnose performance bottlenecks and implement high-impact optimisations.
- Shopify Integration: Work closely with our Platinum Shopify team to ensure ad accounts are perfectly synced with store catalogs, pixels, and server-side tracking.
- Strategic Reporting: Move beyond basic metrics. You’ll deliver comprehensive GA4 reports and audits that tell a story, providing clients with clear, actionable insights.
- Creative Collaboration: Partner with our in-house creative team to brief high-performing ad assets based on real-time performance data and platform trends.
- Budget Stewardship: Manage and scale significant client budgets, ensuring every pound spent is aligned with the client’s CPA/ROAS targets.
- Process Integrity: Adhere to agency SOPs and workflows, ensuring high-quality delivery and seamless integration within the wider Paid Media team.
- Mentorship & Knowledge Sharing: Provide technical guidance and hands-on support to wider team members to help troubleshoot accounts and foster a learning culture.
About You
- The Analytical Engineer: You don’t just see numbers; you see patterns. You are as comfortable in a pivot table as you are in a creative brainstorming session.
- Commercially Sharp: You understand the unit economics of an eCommerce business and how paid media impacts the bottom line.
- Proactively Curious: You are the first to test a new Beta feature or platform (like Reddit or Bing) to give our clients an unfair competitive advantage.
- A Polished Communicator: You can explain complex bidding strategies to a founder in a way that builds confidence and clarity.
- Solution-Oriented: You bring recommendations, not just problems, and maintain a growth-focused mindset even when facing technical challenges.
Skills / Qualities
- 2+ years of Agency Experience: You’re used to the fast-paced environment of managing multiple high-growth accounts simultaneously.
- E-commerce Specialist: Deep experience in scaling Shopify stores is highly preferred. You understand the nuances of Shopping feeds and Catalog sales.
- Search & Social Mastery: Proven track record in Google Ads (Search, Shopping, Display) and Meta Ads (Facebook/Instagram).
- Multi-Platform Savvy: Experience (or a strong desire to scale) on TikTok, Pinterest and Snapchat.
- Technical Foundation: A solid understanding of the tech involved in tracking, from UTM structures to conversion APIs.
Plus Points
- Technical Tracking: Proficiency in Google Tag Manager (GTM) advanced GA4 configurations, experience using Stape and Whatagraph.
- Alternative Channels: Experience with Microsoft (Bing) Ads, Pinterest, or Reddit Ads.
- Certifications: Current Google Ads or Meta Blueprint certifications.
Salary Expectations: We appreciate that showing a salary indication is helpful for you to know whether it works with your personal circumstances, and it can be extremely frustrating to keep something so important so vague. But honestly? We’re in a position to consider a wide variety of experiences and salary levels for this role, so we’d rather discuss your experience and skills than try to set a salary bracket. If you’re the best person for the role, then we’ll offer a salary that works.
