About Us
We’re a digital agency working with fast-moving consumer brands across ecommerce, retail, and lifestyle. We build and manage paid media campaigns that deliver real results—focused on growth, efficiency, and actionable insights.
We’re looking for an experienced Paid Media Specialist to jump in and support our team across search and social channels, primarily Google Ads and Meta Ads, with some work across TikTok or Pinterest depending on experience.
The Role
This is a hands-on execution and optimisation role. You’ll be managing paid search and social campaigns across a mix of clients—running audits, building new campaigns, and optimising existing ones. We're looking for someone confident in platform setup, data interpretation, and fast turnarounds.
You’ll work closely with our in-house strategists and client leads, but you’ll own the day-to-day performance and channel execution.

- Conduct audits of existing campaigns and recommend improvements
- Monitor performance, make data-led optimisations, and communicate key results
- Support with ad copy, keyword research, creative recommendations, and testing
- Report on performance weekly (using platform dashboards, GA4, and/or Looker Studio)
- Keep campaigns on budget and aligned with client targets (ROAS, CPA, etc.)
- Collaborate with internal teams to ensure alignment on creative, landing pages, and goals
What We’re Looking For
- 3+ years of hands-on experience with paid search and paid social, ideally in an agency or freelance capacity
- Proven track record managing campaigns for ecommerce or B2C brands
- Confident using Meta Ads Manager, Google Ads, Google Shopping, PMAX, and GA4
- Able to work independently and manage deadlines without hand-holding
- Strong understanding of performance metrics: ROAS, CPA, LTV, MER, etc.
- Available to start quickly and commit for a minimum of 3 months
- Bonus: experience with Shopify, Klaviyo, or TikTok Ads
What We Offer
- Day rate: Competitive, based on experience
- 3-month contract with potential to extend
- Flexible, remote working
- Collaborative and supportive team
- Exposure to exciting brands and campaign types
