Job description

About the Role

We’re looking for a Digital Lead to join our growing team — someone who’s equal parts strategist, executor, and team player.

You’ll manage multi‑channel campaigns, guide creative direction, and work closely with our content and ads teams to drive measurable results for our clients. This role is perfect for a motivated marketer who is ready to step into a leadership position within a fast‑moving creative agency.

Key Responsibilities

• Plan, execute, and optimise paid ad campaigns across Meta, Google, TikTok, and other digital platforms.
• Manage multiple client accounts and campaigns simultaneously.
• Write and review copy for ads, emailers, blogs, and social media captions.
• Collaborate with content, design, and video teams to ensure consistent brand messaging.
• Strategise and assign tasks to the creative/content team through project management tools.
• Track performance, analyse results, and continuously refine campaign strategies.
• Stay up to date with digital trends, algorithm changes, and creative best practices.
• Communicate clearly and confidently with clients and the internal team.

Requirements

• 3–5 years experience in digital marketing with a focus on paid media.
• Proven success managing high‑budget, multi‑platform campaigns.
• Strong copywriting skills — from blogs and ad copy to emails and captions.
• Excellent understanding of social platforms, trends, and content strategy.
• A table‑free, fast‑paced, collaborative environment.
• Strong communicator with leadership potential and a results‑driven mindset.

What We’re Looking For

• Someone who is proactive, strategic, and hungry to grow.
• Confident with both analytics and creativity.
• Team‑focused and great at guiding others to deliver their best work.
• Obsessed with improving performance and pushing campaigns further.

Benefits

• Work with a small, high‑performance dream team that’s passionate about growth.
• Room to develop your role and advance as the agency scales.
• Exposure to a variety of exciting clients and projects.
• Flexible hybrid work model with autonomy and trust.
