Nonsensical is the UK's leading TikTok agency. We help brands become famous on the platform, not by chasing trends, but by building distinctive worlds, formats, and ideas that last.

• Have a strong focus on retention of your clients and actively growing revenue of your existing clients through upsell
• Identifying new opportunities for client growth, across all your deliverables
• Monitor, track and report on client performance across paid, and escalating with solutions should there be any flags/concerns.

What we are looking for:

• Good understanding of e-commerce ecosystem for websites, TikTok Shop and other channels
• Good Paid social experience within an agency setting
• Good understanding of wider marketing channels and how they can impact conversion
• Good pressure management to ensure that you remain cool, calm & collected to clients and internal stakeholders

• Massively organised, with the ability to juggle lots of clients and tasks
• You can work under pressure and be able to turn round tasks with short deadlines
• You’ll have a great understanding of what creative drives results and why
• You’ll have a good understanding of TikTok Advertising and how to drive revenue for clients from paid media
• Very organised, with high attention to detail
• Flexible to adjust to last minute changes and forward-thinking in solving client problems that may arise

What you get when you join us:

• Fully Remote Working – Work from wherever you’re happiest in the UK (with access to a co-working space in major UK cities if you like a change of scene).
