About the Role

North America is one of our priority markets. With Spend launching in the US, paid search is a core demand-capture channel, and we're hiring a Growth Marketing Manager to run it day to day. You'll own the execution of paid search across Google Ads and Microsoft Advertising in North America, working to the strategy set by the Senior Manager, Paid Marketing, and driving a consistent pipeline of high-quality B2B leads for Sales.

AEO and AI search

• Use paid search data (converting queries, competitor terms, landing page performance) to inform AEO priorities and content.
• Test and report on how AI-driven search features, including AI Overviews and Google's AI Max, change performance and user behavior.
• Embrace AI tools in your day‑to‑day workflow, from ad copy and keyword research to performance analysis, and help the team adopt new ways of working as our AI capabilities evolve.

Working across teams

• Work with North America Field Marketing and SDR teams to improve lead quality and close the gap between Marketing and Sales.
• Collaborate with global Paid Media, Brand and Creative teams so paid search connects to the wider customer journey.
• Maintain strong relationships with platform partner reps (Google, Microsoft) to stay ahead of new features and betas.
