Geeky Tech is more than a search agency. We're a global team of digital experts delivering powerful SEO and paid media strategies for B2B technology companies.

Born from a group of freelancers, we've built a culture of freedom, flexibility, and collaboration. Our remote-first approach lets us deliver world-class results without borders, bringing together top‑tier search and paid media talent, anytime and anywhere.

We combine technical excellence with creative strategy to push the boundaries of digital optimisation. Our mission is simple: to redefine what's possible for B2B technology companies in the digital space.

We're looking for a commercially‑minded Paid Media leader to take ownership of our paid media offering and lead the team that delivers it.

As Head of Paid Media, you'll own paid media from end to end across a portfolio of B2B technology clients. That covers everything from strategic direction and media planning through to channel optimisation, attribution, reporting and team performance. You'll set the standard for how paid media is planned, delivered and scaled at Geeky Tech, while staying close enough to the work to challenge thinking and drive best practice.

This is a leadership role with real influence, not just oversight. You'll lead and mentor our PPC Strategists and Executives, build the processes and SOPs that keep delivery consistent, and work alongside our SEO, content and design teams so our paid media work is joined up and commercially effective. You'll also play an active part in pitches and growth, helping position Geeky Tech as a credible performance partner.
