💰 £40,000 – £50,000 (DOE) + benefits

We’re partnering with a global consumer travel brand on a mission to make journeys simpler, smarter, and more connected.

We’re looking for a Senior PPC Executive to join their in-house performance marketing team within a role that’s hands-on, data-driven, and highly visible across the business. You’ll be working on one of the brand’s most commercially critical channels, managing multi-million-pound budgets across multiple international markets.

If you love getting into the weeds of campaign performance while thinking strategically about automation, testing, and AI-driven efficiency - this is the perfect next step.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Manage and optimise large-scale Google Ads and Microsoft Ads campaigns across multiple global markets.
  • Implement automation, AI bidding, and testing frameworks to drive efficiency and performance.
  • Analyse and optimise campaigns from top-level strategy right down to individual routes and keywords.
  • Build actionable dashboards (ideally in Looker Studio ) to track, visualise, and communicate results.
  • Collaborate closely with commercial, data, and sales teams to connect marketing performance with business impact.
  • Leverage SA360 to manage complex account structures and reporting.
  • Stay ahead of industry updates, experimenting with Performance Max, Demand Gen , and other new features.
  • Partner with localisation and tagging teams to ensure global coverage and measurement accuracy.

What We’re Looking For

  • 3+ years’ hands-on experience managing PPC campaigns in-house or agency-side.
  • Proven Experience on large, complex, high volume search accounts such as B2C Travel, Retail/ ECom, Marketplace accounts (ideally £50k+ monthly)
  • Experience with SA360 and building Looker Studio dashboards.
  • Strong analytical mindset, commercially focused, and meticulous with detail.
  • A genuine “doer” — someone who enjoys testing, learning, and optimising continuously.
  • Confident communicator able to work cross-functionally with senior stakeholders.

Nice to Haves:

  • Exposure to Meta Ads or cross-channel attribution.
  • Multilingual (French, German, Spanish, or Italian).
  • Advanced Excel skills; SQL knowledge is a bonus.
  • Certification in Google Marketing Platform or similar.

Why You’ll Love It Here

  • Impact: You’ll own one of the brand’s highest-profile, highest-spend channels - and see your optimisations deliver real commercial results.
  • Innovation: Get hands-on with the newest PPC features, automation tools, and AI-driven campaign types.
  • Visibility: A junior title, but senior exposure - you’ll collaborate with data, sales, and commercial teams across the business.
  • Growth: Be part of a fast-evolving global marketing team that rewards curiosity, experimentation, and efficiency.
