Role: PPC Manager (B2B) – 12 month fixed term contract

Location:

London, United Kingdom

This is a 12 month FTC opportunity to shape and scale pan‐European search and lead gen for a leading global brand at a pivotal moment of transformation. You’ll play a central role in building a high‐impact performance engine across markets, helping move the programme from stable BAU to measurable commercial growth.

This role will lead the delivery of the PPC / Lead Gen proposal across markets, owning the end‐to‐end design, implementation, scaling and optimisation of search activity (paid search, shopping, Performance Max, branded + non‐branded search, and channel experimentation).

Translate the strategy into operational plans, campaign architectures, measurement and governance, ensuring successful market launches, smooth transition, reliable performance reporting, and continuous scale.

Build and lead a high‐performing search capability working with the accounts team, commercial stakeholders and creative partners to deliver measurable growth and efficient ROI across large, multi‐market businesses.

• You are a search specialist with proven experience scaling paid search at enterprise scale (multi‐market, multi‐product, complex stakeholder environments).
• You combine hands‐on technical expertise (campaign build, bidding automation, feeds, measurement) with strong commercial judgement and the ability to present and win stakeholder buy‐in.
• You enjoy translating strategy into repeatable operating models and leading teams to deliver consistent, accountable results.

You will be the single point of ownership for delivering the partner proposal. This includes campaign structure and multi‐market roll‐out plans working with localisation /transcreation team, transition plans, data/measurement design and operational governance.

Day to day, you’ll run the search strategy, set prioritisation across markets/business units, allocate budget and resource, define experiments and scale winners.

You’ll be supported by an Account Director, Analytics Director and Performance Marketing Director, and you will line‐manage a Performance Marketing Executive who will report into you and help run execution and campaign optimisation.

You’ll work closely with creative, analytics, tech and commercial stakeholders to ensure campaign creatives, funnels and data capture are optimised for measurement and scale.

• Lead the implementation and operationalisation of the strategy: campaign architecture, market prioritisation and launch sequencing.
• Define and own KPIs and dashboards (performance, budget pacing, lift, incremental ROI) and ensure timely, accurate MI to inform decisions.
• Scale campaigns across markets: localisation/transcreation, audience strategies, feed and landing page requirements, and creative testing programmes.
• Set governance and access controls for ad accounts and platforms; define security and safe automation guardrails and change control processes.
• Design and run test & learn frameworks to identify scalable growth levers and feed insights back into channel & creative teams.
• Line‐manage the Performance Marketing Executive: set priorities, coach and develop capability.
• Collaborate with the accounts team to manage commercial scope, SLAs, and client communications to ensure alignment and transparency.

• Proven track record (typically 5+ years) delivering and scaling paid search in large businesses…
