Paid Social Executive

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.

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
