Job description

ROLE SNAPSHOT

We’re looking for a Senior PPC Account Manager to join our growing team and take the lead on delivering high-performance campaigns for an exciting portfolio of clients. Working alongside your Account Director and Business Director, you’ll have the autonomy to manage strategic planning, campaign execution, and performance analysis—while developing trusted client relationships and identifying opportunities for growth.

This is your opportunity to step into a role where your expertise will shape outcomes, your voice will be heard, and your leadership will help elevate both client results and team development. You’ll play a key part in delivering award-worthy work while mentoring the next generation of PPC talent.

WHAT YOU WILL BE DOING

• Own & Deliver Performance – Take full responsibility for campaign execution and performance across your accounts, proactively driving results and solving challenges before they escalate.

• Plan & Strategise – Develop strategic PPC plans that align with client goals and ensure all activity is rooted in data, insight, and innovation.

• Lead Day-to-Day Delivery – Oversee account management tasks including budget pacing, task allocation, reporting, and performance tracking to ensure consistent, high-quality output.

• Guide & Support Clients – Act as the primary point of contact for your clients—building trust, leading meetings, and providing updates, insights, and forward-thinking recommendations.

• Set & Monitor KPIs – Define clear objectives for each campaign and track performance closely, adjusting strategies to deliver the strongest possible results.

• Identify Growth Opportunities – Spot chances to scale and optimise client activity, propose new initiatives, and support upsells and cross-channel collaboration.

• Mentor & Lead – Guide PPC executives by sharing your knowledge, offering feedback, and helping them grow in confidence and capability.

• Refine & Innovate – Continuously test new tactics and approaches, using performance data and platform insights to evolve strategies and stay ahead of industry trends.

• Collaborate Across Teams – Work hand-in-hand with SEO, Paid Social, Growth, and Data teams to ensure integrated planning and execution that delivers real impact.

WHAT MAKES THE PPC TEAM AT FOUND SPECIAL?

The Found team is a powerhouse of incredibly talented, data-driven individuals who thrive on innovation and precision. Collaboration is at the heart of everything we do—we work as a tight-knit team, always ready to lend a hand when needed and champion each other’s successes. We’re passionate about sharing knowledge, believing it’s the key to continuous growth and self-improvement. Open to exploring new opportunities and testing fresh ideas, we remain relentlessly focused on delivering exceptional results for our clients.

HOW WE OPERATE

We’re incredibly proud of the culture we’ve built - we’ve even won awards for it! Every day we focus on making progress, knowing that achieving big milestones comes from taking many small, deliberate steps. We’re always ready to support one another, share insights, and work together to overcome challenges. We embrace creativity, innovation and experiment relentlessly to deliver for our clients and get them the best possible results. We encourage ownership at every level, empowering our people to challenge the status quo and bring fresh perspectives. Everyone has a voice and can make an impact, bringing their own unique value to our team.

• You will be given autonomy to work on accounts and take ownership/shape the way of working, with lots of support from your Account Director, Head of Team and Growth team.

• We have open comms - there aren’t any silly questions and there’s no limit to how many you can ask - whether that be to the Head of PPC, AD or SAE

WHAT DRIVES SUCCESS IN OUR PPC TEAM

Proactivity - if you work best in an environment where you need to be told exactly what to do and when, this might not be the right place for you. If you’re someone who thrives on taking initiative, coming up with ideas and suggestions, then you’re in the right place.

• Willingness to learn, adapt and constantly evolve - we never settle for the status quo. We’re always looking at how we can learn, whether that’s a new way of doing something, from our success and failures or how we learn from one another.

• Independence - we thrive off of freedom and autonomy, you will take ownership of your role and your career path, with the best managers and leaders to support and nurture along the way.

• You have experience running successful PPC campaigns in an agency environment.
