Paid Social Executive
Apply for this job

A high-street retail brand rebuilt as DTC-first and taken to Series B. A challenger brand scaled from a standing start to £100m+ in global sales. Another that jumped 46% in revenue early into the engagement and went on to get acquired.


£200m+ in ad spend managed across brands like these. Now they're hiring a Growth Executive to own paid social for the next cohort of brands headed the same way, real campaign ownership from day one, not a seat crunching someone else's numbers.


WHO THEY ARE

A full-funnel performance marketing agency working with DTC brands, from early-stage startups through to household names post-Series B. They've taken brands from launch to nine figures in revenue and have proven themselves as partners in that growth.


  • Small team, mighty client roster
  • Genuine ownership over how your clients grow
  • Flexible on how and where you work
  • Culture built on resourcefulness and results over vanity metrics
  • Regular socials, an annual company trip abroad


This is a full-time remote role. If you’re based outside of the UK, this would be as a contractor.


WHAT'S IN IT FOR YOU

  • Real autonomy. You'll take ownership of paid social execution for your client cohort, not just execute someone else's plan.
  • Career growth that is truly bespoke. No rigid ladder. Progression is based on impact, and it can move fast.
  • Work where you're most productive. Office, home, or a funded co-working space, your call.
  • A genuine stake in outcomes. UK candidates can join the share option scheme.
  • Work/life balance that's actually respected. Need two hours off for a plumber? Take it, no drama.
  • Direct exposure to strategy. You'll sit close to the Growth Lead and Creative Strategist, not buried three layers down.
  • Salary: £32,000 to £38,000, depending on experience (open to going higher for someone who can step in and exceed expectations immediately)


WHAT YOU'RE GETTING INTO

  • Own the execution, optimisation and reporting of paid social campaigns across a cohort of D2C clients
  • Dig into performance data daily to catch what's working and what needs to change before anyone has to ask
  • Partner with the Growth Lead to spot new growth opportunities and test them
  • Support fielding client queries directly and give the Account Director and Growth Manager sharp, useful performance insights
  • Produce data-driven creative briefs so creative testing stays sharp and iterative
  • Keep detailed, up-to-date activity logs so nothing falls through the cracks across a fast-moving account list
  • Build a working understanding of test-and-verify methodology and apply it to every campaign you touch


WHO YOU ARE

  • You have 3+ years of hands-on Meta Ads experience, client or agency side
  • You've got TikTok Ads experience too, or you're itching to build it
  • You understand D2C ecommerce metrics inside and out, on-platform and full-funnel
  • You've got a track record of turning raw data into insights that actually changed a campaign
  • You're highly organised and you communicate changes before anyone has to chase you
  • You write and speak with precision, no rambling updates or vague status reports
  • You can run with a growth initiative independently once it's briefed
  • You're comfortable in Google Sheets or Excel manipulating data, not just reading dashboards built by someone else


Bonus if you've:

  • Worked across multiple client accounts simultaneously in an agency setting
  • Contributed to media or creative roadmaps, not just executed against them


WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE

  • First 30 days: You're fully onboarded across your client cohort, you understand each account's KPIs and current performance baseline, and you're already flagging first observations to the Growth Lead.
  • First 60 days: You're running day-to-day execution independently, your activity logs are airtight, and you've contributed at least one data-driven insight that shaped a creative brief or media decision.
  • First 90 days: You're a trusted second pair of eyes for the Growth Lead on your accounts, client queries come to you directly and get resolved fast, and you've helped identify a genuine growth opportunity that gets tested.
