The posting

Paid Search has changed. Automation runs the bids, AI is reshaping the results page, and a good ROAS on its own doesn't prove much any more. The people who stand out now are the ones who can connect the platform to the client's P&L.

That's this job. You'll own Paid Search strategy across a portfolio of our biggest accounts across a number of industries. Your time goes on direction, people and client leadership, not just living in the platforms.

What you will do

  • Build long term Paid Search roadmaps for our key accounts, tied to the client's commercial targets, not just channel KPIs.
  • Oversee multiple accounts to ensure strategic consistency, executional excellence, and commercial impact.
  • Decide where automation earns its place and where human judgement still wins: bidding, Performance Max, feeds, first-party data and measurement.
  • Be the senior Paid Search voice for marketing and ecommerce directors. Bring the recommendations, and the confidence to push back when the data says so.
  • Ensure we have robust measurement frameworks that connect Paid Search to commercial outcomes.
  • Lead innovation and testing frameworks across key accounts.
  • Build strong, trust-based relationships with senior client stakeholders.
  • Spot where accounts can grow, from new markets to extra services, and make the case for it.
  • Develop and mentor Managers and Analysts, raising the overall capability of the Paid Media team.
  • Maintain expertise in industry trends, automation developments and emerging technologies.
  • Lead Paid Search in new business pitches, from the opportunity analysis to presenting on the day.
  • Keep quality high across every account you oversee, and shape how work and resource are split across the team.
  • Raise the standard across Paid Media by sharing what's working and setting up tests worth learning from.

*Line management - We are ideally looking for someone who wants to manage a team, but it isn't a requirement.

Requirements

  • Advanced expertise in Google Ads and Paid Search strategy across large or complex accounts.
  • Proven ability to develop and implement long-term strategic roadmaps.
  • Strong consultancy skills, with confidence advising senior stakeholders.
  • Commercial mindset with the ability to align performance with business outcomes.
  • Experience leading, mentoring and developing team members.
  • Deep understanding of automation, bidding strategies and cross-channel integration.
  • Excellent presentation and communication skills.
  • Commercial mindset with the ability to align performance with business outcomes.
  • High level of attention to detail and commitment to quality.
  • Ambitious, proactive and driven to continually improve standards

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
