Our Client

Our global iGaming client has a multi-million-pound search budget focused on the UK, Spain, Canada, and LATAM with plans to enter many new markets in 2025.

They cultivate a fast-paced, collaborative environment where innovation drives everything they do. Their teams are passionate about delivering top-tier gaming experiences, leveraging data-driven insights, and staying ahead in an ever-evolving industry. As they grow, they’re looking for talented professionals to join them - driving performance, creativity, and excellence across all areas of the business.

The Role of Paid Social Executive

They are seeking an experienced Paid Social Executive, who will play a key role in supporting the growth of the brand through performance-driven paid social campaigns.

• Liaise with the data side of the marketing team to ensure optimal tracking setup. Implement tracking links and landing pages to ensure all published ads are fully functional.
• Absorb overseas market nuances and understand how different cultures and audience behaviours feed into marketing strategies across LATAM markets and new markets that will be in housing.
• Review competitor paid social ads for inspiration and insights related to your work and present quarterly insights to relevant stakeholders.
• Be willing to test out new ideas in ads – creative or practical!
• Contribute to meetings on assets and results you manage directly.
