Paid Social Specialist

Our client is one of the UK's fastest-growing global lead generation businesses a multi-brand performance marketing company investing millions of pounds a year across paid social and paid search, connecting consumers and SMEs with trusted providers across a wide range of essential products and services.

You'll take real ownership of paid social strategy across a mix of 5–10 B2B and B2C verticals from competitor research and creative direction through to campaign build, optimisation and quality control. Activity runs predominantly on Meta, but the business is expanding its channel mix, so exposure to Tik Tok or Linked In ads is a plus.
