• Experience with ad verification & brand safety tools
• Automated rules & scripts for bid adjustments and performance monitoring
• A/B and multivariate testing methodologies
• Experience with dynamic product feeds for social advertising
• Troubleshooting ability across major platforms

Qualifications

• 2-3+ years experience running paid social campaigns, ideally in an agency environment
• Demonstrable platform expertise in Meta Ads, LinkedIn Campaign Manager, and Snap Ads
• Strong focus on the technical/implementation side rather than content creation
• Experience with B2B paid social campaigns, particularly on Meta and LinkedIn
• Analytically-minded with excellent client communication skills
• Self-motivated with ability to work independently
• Desirable: experience with YouTube campaigns via Google Ads / DV360 or willingness to learn

Benefits

• Truly flexible working (4 days remote, just 1 day in our central London office)
• Exceptional time off: 30 days annual leave PLUS all public holidays
• Core hours policy that respects your personal time
• Work-from-home bills contribution
• Home office allowance
• Private healthcare
• Bi-annual pay reviews with clear salary progression
• Potential share ownership

We're looking for a mature, experienced professional who can operate independently as the primary paid social specialist. The ideal candidate is someone who thrives in a hands-on technical role and can take ownership of implementation, optimization, and strategy.
