Spekk has been named one of the UK’s Top 100 Companies to Work For in 2025 by the Culture 100 Awards — a recognition celebrating the nation’s most loved and admired workplaces.

Who we are:

We are Spekk; a digital advertising agency for high-consideration products. We help businesses with complex offerings increase their sales by combining the power of algorithms with human empathy, storytelling and style. Our primary way of doing this is through our Paid Media Management service, which is at the heart of our business. In addition to this, we also offer creative campaign development and social first content production.

What you’ll do:

You will be working directly with more senior members of the team on live client accounts supporting with things like reporting, campaign analysis, dashboard building and, of course, setting up ad campaigns.

As you are working in your support role to our ‘Paid Media Leads’ you will start getting to grips with the very thing that sets Spekk apart from other media buying agencies; strategic, high-level thinking.

See, when selling high-consideration products, mastering the technical and analytical side of media buying is not enough. It requires crafting carefully considered strategies that not only gets people’s attention but that guides them through their often complicated decision-making process.

Who this role is for:

• Rising stars within the world of paid media. While we will teach you a lot, you can’t start from scratch. We need someone to hit the ground running with at least one year of solid paid media experience.
• People who dig deeper. The type of products we market are high-consideration, which means they have complex consumer buying journeys. A superficial understanding of a challenge or problem won’t cut it.
• Both sides of the brain. The role requires both analytical and creative thinking, so you’ll need to be not just well-rounded, but more or less perfectly spherical.
• Curiosity killed the cat, but made your career. Candidates should be curious and inquisitive, ask questions and be hungry for knowledge.
• Really, really, really great people. We’re hard-working and highly motivated, but we’re also here to enjoy our work. Ideally you’d be someone who looks out for others and revels in being social. The team mostly works remotely but we meet up on team trips all over the world.

What you’ll get:

• Working with fun & fascinating businesses – think music festivals in tropical locations, or Regenesis – Novak Djokovic’s new entrepreneurial venture.
• The chance to travel while your investment banker friends are slurping noodles at 2am somewhere dreadful like Canary Wharf.
• The freedom of working remotely, but with trips every year to meet up with the team.
• A meritocracy free from red tape or stupid barriers to your personal development – take Stephen as an example, he made Partner 4 years after joining as an intern.

Timings & remuneration:

• Start date: Summer 2025 ASAP. Full-time position, in it for the long run.
• We’re flexible around employment forms depending on location - we can figure out what suits both sides best.
• Team trips to places like Barcelona, Nice and Mallorca (3 per year)
• £500 one-off allocation for home office set-up.
• Fully remote workforce with team members based in the UK, Sweden, Spain, Germany, France and Portugal.
• Casa Spekk in Barcelona (our own ‘brand home’). Whenever you are in town you can take full advantage of this collaboration space.

Must-have criteria:

• You’ve got at least a Bachelor's degree.
• You’re highly proficient in written and spoken English.
• You have at least one year of experience running paid social ads professionally on both Meta and TikTok.

Please apply if…

• You’re a human calculator.
• You can work during UK office hours (we’re pretty flexible, but for meetings we’ll need you to be around).
• You’re good at research - Googling, reading, generally figuring stuff out.
• When you go to sleep at night, you dream of neatly organised spreadsheets.
• You get good grades without memorising textbooks.
• Everyone wants you on their team in a game of Monopoly.
• You fall to your knees in despair when a comma is out of place, when a formula doesn’t add up, or when you’re missing a piece of a puzzle.
• You’d rather spend your money on seeing the world rather than buying more of what’s in it.
• You speak more than one language.
• You’ve spent time running ads on any of the other social media platforms.
• You know how to make sense of Google Analytics.
• You have a morally and/or legally questionable story from your gap year to tell us.
• You can mix a killer mezcal cocktail.
