We are working with a high-growth Tech business in London to hire a PPC Manager. This is a hands‑on individual contributor role with genuine ownership, giving you the opportunity to shape and develop paid search across an established UK market while driving growth across emerging European markets.

You’ll join a lean, specialist marketing function where paid media is a key driver of customer acquisition and revenue. With ambitious international growth plans, you’ll have the freedom to challenge existing approaches, identify new opportunities and influence how and where the business invests to scale performance.

The PPC Manager will take ownership of paid search across multiple markets, combining hands‑on campaign management with longer‑term strategy. You’ll test, analyse and optimise performance, dig beyond surface‑level metrics to understand what is really driving results, and turn complex data into clear commercial recommendations that influence future investment.

About the Role:

• Own campaigns across Google Search, Performance Max, Demand Gen, YouTube and Microsoft Ads across multiple international markets
• Manage and forecast multi-market budgets against ROAS, CPA and revenue targets, with scope to scale
• Develop UK activity while identifying growth opportunities across European markets
• Lead testing across bidding, audiences, Demand Gen, Performance Max and emerging formats
• Improve attribution, automation and conversion‑led bidding alongside data and web specialists

About You:

• Strong hands‑on PPC experience within an ecommerce or conversion‑focused environment
• Excellent analytical skills and curiosity to investigate the causes behind performance changes
• Commercial experience optimising towards sales, revenue, CPA, ROAS or lead‑generation outcomes
• Confidence using Google Ads, Microsoft Ads, GA4 and reporting or analytics platforms
• Ability to operate independently while influencing stakeholders across marketing, data and local markets

Why You’ll Love It

• Genuine ownership as the business’s dedicated PPC specialist
• Opportunity to shape paid search strategy across international markets
• Hybrid working with 3 office days per week
• Private healthcare, pension, life assurance and income protection
• Season ticket loan and cycle‑to‑work support
• Scope to use AI and automation to remove repetitive operational work
• Significant autonomy to test ideas and influence increasing media investment
