Paid Media Manager

Looking for a hands-on paid media role at a specialist B2B agency, offering the opportunity to work across a client list that runs to some of the world’s most recognised food, beverage and hospitality brands? This is an agency that’s growing fast, leading in its sector and has multiple award wins up its sleeve.

The Role
You’ll own the execution across paid social and digital, setting up ads, building audiences and KPIs, in-flight optimisation, reporting, and deciding which channels the spend goes on and against which audiences. You’ll work across Meta, TikTok, LinkedIn, Google Ads, GA4 and YouTube, with PPC and SEO as a secondary priority.

Budget ownership sits with you and one peer. You make the day-to-day media decisions; two Performance Marketing Managers act as your backup and handle client and strategic oversight rather than looking over your shoulder. The team is moving from traditional campaign funnels toward an always-on model – more repeatable and more sustainable from a workload point of view.

The Package
£35,000 – £38,000
Hybrid working: three days per week in the office
Either Manchester- or Bedfordshire-based
Training and development budget 

The Person
You’ve spent roughly two years at the hands-on end of paid media: setting up campaigns, building audiences, optimising in-flight and reporting. Experience is open across agency or in-house, B2C or B2B, as long as you’re fluent across paid social and the Google stack.
