Ready to step into a senior paid media leadership role where strategy, people and performance all come together? WHO ARE WE?..

We're a well respected independent agency that has built a strong reputation for delivering integrated, commercially focused marketing solutions for some of Australia’s best-known brands.

With a genuinely collaborative culture, an impressive client portfolio and a team that values creativity, innovation and doing things differently, they’re now looking for an experienced Paid Media Lead to join the team. This is an opportunity for someone who has progressed beyond being purely “on the tools” and is ready to have a genuine influence across strategy, people, clients and the wider paid media offering.

WHAT WILL YOU BE DOING?..

As Paid Media Lead, you’ll take ownership of the agency’s paid media capability across Paid Social, Paid Search and Programmatic, while also working across the wider media ecosystem.

You’ll be responsible for ensuring campaigns are strategically sound, commercially effective and delivered to an exceptional standard, whilst also helping develop the people, processes and technology that sit behind the function.



You’ll have a strong voice within the agency, working closely with senior stakeholders, clients and media partners to continually evolve the paid media offering. There’s also a genuine commercial component to the role, including team capacity planning, resource management, service development and supporting new business opportunities.

In short, this is a role for someone who wants to lead, influence and innovate, rather than simply manage campaigns.

WE NEED YOU TO HAVE...

- 5+ years' experience in paid media
- Strong expertise across Paid Search and Paid Social, with exposure to Programmatic
- Previous agency experience is essential
- At least 2 years' experience managing a team / juniors
- Experience overseeing significant media budgets and complex campaigns
- A strong understanding of data, analytics, optimisation and performance measurement
- Experience developing and delivering automated reporting / dashboard solutions

I can make myself available outside of normal working hours to suit from 7am until 10pm. If unavailable please leave a message and either myself or one of my colleagues will respond.

By applying for this role you give express consent for us to process and submit (subject to required skills) your application to our client in conjunction with this vacancy only. Also feel free to follow on Twitter @SearchableKate or connect with me on LinkedIn! I look forward to hearing from you.
