The Company
This is a brilliant opportunity to join a fast-growing, independent digital agency that started life as an affiliate marketing specialist and has evolved into a full-service performance agency. Over the last four years, the Paid Media team has scaled from 2 to 9 people, and the agency continues to grow, recently moving to a new office in Farringdon.
The agency prides itself on accelerating careers — here, you’ll gain senior-level responsibilities much earlier than in typical network environments. The team is young, ambitious and collaborative, backed by a supportive senior leadership team. You’ll be joining at a pivotal point in the agency’s journey, with the opportunity to help shape its future and be involved in strategic business decisions.
* Lead a Paid Media team of 6–7, spanning both activation and client services functions
* Split responsibilities across client management (60%), team leadership (20%), and campaign activation (20%)
* Sit as part of the senior leadership team, contributing to agency-wide strategy and growth plans
* Own key client relationships and help scale client accounts across both Paid Social and PPC
* Influence the profitability and performance of the Paid Media department
* Support audits (but no pitching responsibilities), working closely with the new business team
* Contribute to long-term agency goals — with a view to a potential business sale in 3–5 years
* Potential equity available after 12 months (as has been offered to previous Heads of Department)
