ABOUT US

25 years ago, we started as one of the UK’s first specialist data science businesses. Today we’re one of the leading integrated marketing agencies outside London. A genuine Northern success story (that now has an office in Sydney). And one that’s succeeded not by bolting data onto what we do, but by having it as our starting point.

By plugging our creatives, strategists and media specialists into data-driven insight we help them get the most compelling ideas in front of the right audience. Which all adds up to outstanding results for our clients.

We’re powered by our people and the partnerships we have with our amazing clients and brands.

We number over 250 creatives, developers, strategists, data scientists, media specialists and more across offices in Sheffield, Leeds, Sydney and Melbourne. A unique blend of talents collaborating as one to create powerful stories and compelling results for our clients.

ROLE SNAPSHOT

We’re looking for an enthusiastic, creative, and results-driven marketer who is excited by digital, to join Jaywing’s growing Paid Media team. You’ll have experience building and delivering successful paid social campaigns, and relish the challenges it poses, and you’ll be adept at an integrated strategy across all relevant platforms. Pair this with a mind for data and strategy, and you might be just who we’re looking for!

As a Paid Social Performance Manager, you’ll work with your paid leadership team to deliver effective client strategies, from strategy through to delivery & reporting. You’ll lead across clients where we provide that service and work in tandem with client service and wider organic media teams to ensure our recommendations reap brilliant results.

Our ideal candidate will have a real passion for creativity and already has some experience in data-powered social delivery, from builds to ongoing optimisations to user best-practice creative recommendations. You’ll be able to demonstrate excellent written skills, impeccable attention to detail and an awareness of how your work can impact, power and complement other media channels (like organic social, programmatic, paid search & influencer strategies). We’re looking for someone who will get under the skin of every account they work on, who understands the importance of brand messaging and brand mission and can embody them in their approach to performance analysis, strategy, and delivery.

In taking this role, you will constantly strive to deliver best-in-class paid social and help to evolve our approach as the social & creative landscape changes. You’ll want to grow your strategic knowledge and capabilities, and you’ll recognise your essential contribution to meeting team goals.

This role would suit a person with 2-3 years’ experience in an agency position.
