Octopus Electric Vehicles has accelerated fast in consumer growth over the last two years. We’re looking for someone brilliant to take day-to-day ownership of our digital performance engine. This is a hands-on role for someone who loves being close to the detail: building campaigns, digging into search query reports, spotting optimisation opportunities, improving audiences, testing creative, reporting clearly, and helping us move faster.
You’ll sit in the B2C Growth squad, reporting into the Senior Growth Marketing Manager, and will own paid digital activity across paid search, programmatic and paid social. You’ll work closely with our Content Creator, Design team, Commercial team and wider Marketing team to get campaigns live quickly, optimise performance, and unlock new areas of growth.
Paid media is the heart of this role, but you'll also own key parts of the user journey, including writing, building, and launching campaign landing pages using our web tools to ensure end-to-end performance. Over time, there may also be the opportunity to support organic social planning, scheduling, and reporting alongside our Content Creator.
This would suit someone with strong hands-on performance marketing experience, ideally from an agency or fast-paced digital environment, who is ready to step into an in-house role with more ownership, more visibility, and more chance to shape what happens next.
What You’ll Do
- Own our paid digital channels: Build, manage and optimise campaigns across paid search, paid social and programmatic display.
- Dive into search query reports, audiences, bids, budgets and campaign performance to spot what’s working and where the next opportunity is.
- Work hands-on across SA360, DV360, Campaign Manager and Meta Ads Manager, ensuring campaigns are set up cleanly and tracking works.
- Help manage digital spend within agreed monthly targets, reporting regularly on pacing, CPL and performance.
- Partner with our Content Creator and Design team to test new creative hooks, formats, audiences and messaging.
- Turn channel data into clear, practical insight for the B2C squad.
- Take end-to-end ownership when campaigns require new landing pages and other pieces of content.
- Coordinate briefs, assets, links, tracking and launches across content, design, web and wider marketing teams.
What You’ll Need
- Strong hands-on performance marketing experience, ideally in a fast-paced agency, media, content or high-growth in-house environment.
- Strong paid search experience, with the confidence to build, manage and optimise campaigns.
- Experience with Google Marketing Platform, especially SA360 and Campaign Manager.
- Experience managing paid social campaigns, ideally in Meta Ads Manager.
- A proper performance mindset, enjoying digging into the numbers and finding growth opportunities.
- Good tracking and reporting hygiene.
- A roll-your-sleeves-up attitude, enjoying pace, variety, ownership, and collaboration.
This role will suit someone driven, proactive and commercially minded, but also kind, low-ego, positive and fun to work with.
