PPC Account Director - MGOMD (Newcastle)
Newcastle
About the Role:
MG OMD are searching for an experienced PPC Account Director to join their award-winning team and lead paid search strategy for Renault and LNER. This person will find themselves working closely with all the major search (PPC) platforms to deliver best-in-class advertising campaigns for some of the UK’s biggest household brands. An ability to establish strong working relationships with clients and media partners is crucial, as is the capacity to both collaborate with and challenge vendors on all aspects of search advertising.
As an Account Director you should be 100% confident in your knowledge of paid search and comfortable recommending strategies and tactics to clients. You will have solid experience in integrated search campaign management and be able to ensure all work is delivered on time and to the high standard required. An in-depth working knowledge of the Google Ads platform is a must (with experience using SA360 and other bid management platforms a bonus).

At Omnicom Media Group, we are committed to supporting flexibility for our people while fostering collaboration, innovation, and teamwork. We have a hybrid working model (three days in the office, two working remotely), to ensure that we meet the needs of both our people and our business, balancing the benefits of in‑person connections with the flexibility of remote working. Our standard working hours are 9:30 – 17:30, but we offer the ability to flex around core hours of 10:30 – 16:30 to give our people flexibility on how they manage their working day, whether that’s in the office or working remotely. For example, you could start work at 8:30 and finish at 16:30 or start at 10:30 and finish at 18:30.
We encourage open conversations between our people and managers to help navigate high‑need periods and individual circumstances. Our goal is to create an environment where people feel genuinely supported to do their best – both in their careers and in their lives outside of work.
