Paid Media Exec - Brand Hackers
Paid Media Exec | £29-36k
Brand Hackers
We build experienced, dynamic and fractional teams that fit in like puzzle pieces – providing just the right knowledge and energy at the right time. We’re not your typical agency or a one-man show; we're a team of passionate professionals who eat, sleep, and breathe branding and marketing.
Our diverse team of experts covers all marketing mix elements, from performance and social media to web development and beyond and with over 200 brands under our belt, our Brand Hackers have a treasure trove of shared experiences. This wealth of knowledge fuels our creativity and gives us the edge.
We’re 4 years old and have grown from just 2 of us to 20+ people with some case studies we’re really proud of and a bit of a reputation (even if we say so ourselves).
The Role: Paid Media Exec
Performance marketing has become a Brand Hackers core offering over the past 18 months, to the point that we are on the hunt for another Paid Media Executive/Growth Executive to support this growth.
A large part of this role will be focused on building out and executing paid ads campaigns for DTC brands across Google, Meta and TikTok predominately, with occasional campaigns on LinkedIn and Pinterest. Not only will you be setting these up but you’ll be responsible for all monitoring, optimising and reporting back to the clients. Alongside paid, you will also have the opportunity to flex into wider growth work such as SEO, content, CRM, affiliate, app marketing and campaign planning.
You will usually be working directly into the founders of each business, working either alongside their marketing teams or in some cases you will be their main marketing person.
This role will involve a good mix of strategic thinking alongside lots of execution and getting sh*t done so we are looking for someone capable of working at pace whilst keeping an eye on the bigger picture.
MUST HAVE: We're looking for a growth exec with experience in DTC brands and at least 6-12 months of direct, hands-on experience running Meta, Google or TikTok ad platforms - including setting up, optimising and reporting on ads.
About youWe're looking for someone who meets the following criteria:
Experience working within growth marketing with DTC/e-commerce brands
Experience working directly within Meta, Google & TikTok ad platforms
Experience with Shopify or other ecommerce platforms, and reporting tools (GA4)
Experience with CRM platforms and strategies
Strong analytical skills with an ability to analyse, draw insights strategise and execute
Comfortable in Excel or Google Sheets reports and formulas
Experience working in fast paced, ideally startup environments
Experience managing clients or multiple stakeholders
An entrepreneurial spirit and a passion for startup marketing
An ability to step out of the weeds and see the bigger picture
An ability to think beyond ads and experiment with broader growth tactics when needed; whether that’s testing content, SEO, or helping with CRM.
Excellent project management skills and the ability to move fast
💸 Salary: £29,000 - £36,000 DOE
🏡 Logistics: Roaming - WFH but you will be required to be in London at least once per month (we'll fund up to £100 travel per trip if coming from outside of London).
