A chance to help sculpt the paid media function and grow a start-up agency sounds appealing, especially with the rewards that can follow.
With a mixed portfolio of clients, solid foundations built over the last four years or so, and some big wins recently (more in the pipeline). Two founders are looking for an experienced Paid Media Manager to help them manage their clients and begin to grow a team of executives throughout the first part of 2025.
You’ll work alongside the two founders, helping them shape processes, and take the business to the next level.
They would love somebody with a few years of experience in an agency environment so you can bring all your knowledge to the table – helping to refine offerings and create an industry-leading service for customers.
As Paid Media Manager, you will manage strategies and performance, cover planning, optimisation, analysis of accounts, and work closely with the Directors to ensure the best campaigns are created and strong relationships are built with clients.
