This is a paid search focused role requiring hands-on experience with Google Ads and Search Ads 360. As the Senior Digital Executive, you’ll build on your paid search expertise by supporting planning and forecasting, turning performance data into practical recommendations and helping paid search campaigns run smoothly. You’ll also have opportunities to develop your knowledge across paid social, programmatic and other biddable channels. What you’ll be doing
• Coordinate daily digital campaign delivery, keeping briefs, timelines and stakeholders aligned.
• Monitor campaign performance, budget pacing and spend, identifying issues and recommending next steps.
• Support media planning and forecasting, translating campaign objectives into practical delivery plans.
• Prepare reports and post campaign analysis with clear insights, not just numbers.
• Work closely with planning and activation specialists, supporting campaign setup, quality checks and optimisation, with hands on activation where appropriate.
• Build strong client and partner relationships through explicit communication and reliable follow-through.
• Take responsibility for defined areas of campaign work: resolve daily challenges and involve colleagues when support is needed. What you’ll bring
• Experience delivering digital media campaigns, with readiness to take on senior executive responsibilities. You may be an Executive ready for the next step, already working at Senior Executive level, or bringing equivalent experience under a different job title.
• Essential: hands on experience using Google Ads and Search Ads 360 to set up, manage and optimise paid search campaigns, monitor budgets and analyse performance, supported by a strong working knowledge of search engine marketing (SEM) tools.
• Ability to use Excel or Google Sheets to analyse campaign data and track budgets, and to explain what the results mean for campaign performance.
• Clear communication skills and the ability to build relationships with clients and colleagues.
• Ability to organise campaign tasks, check work for accuracy and manage competing priorities, including identifying when deadlines or workloads need discussion.
• Ability to identify campaign issues, suggest improvements and take responsibility for your work,



asking questions and seeking support when needed. Useful, but not essential Experience across paid social, programmatic or other biddable channels is welcome, but not essential. This could include Meta Ads Manager or Display & Video 360. Familiarity with app marketing, analytics and reporting tools such as Google Analytics 4, AppsFlyer or Looker Studio, or experience collaborating across markets, is also a bonus. You don’t need experience in every additional channel or platform. If you bring the essential Google Ads, Search Ads 360 and SEM experience, clear communication and a willingness to learn, we’d like to hear from you. Agency experience is helpful, but relevant experience from other environments is welcome too. Publicis Groupe
