Digital Performance Specialist
GlowMetrics is a specialist digital agency dedicated to data-driven growth. As a Google Marketing Platform Certified Partner, we bridge the gap between digital marketing execution and advanced data analytics. We partner with a diverse portfolio of clients—from large-scale e-commerce retailers to prominent non-profit organisations—to deliver transparent, measurable and effective digital campaigns.
Our team consists of Digital Analytics and Marketing experts and we are seeking a highly skilled Digital Performance Specialist to join the team and lead the strategy, execution, and optimisation of performance marketing campaigns. In this role, you will go beyond standard media buying; you will leverage GlowMetrics’ core expertise in analytics to ensure every campaign is built on a foundation of robust data, ensuring that budget allocation is driven by accurate attribution and granular measurement (GA4/GTM), rather than vanity metrics.
Key Responsibilities
Campaign Strategy & Execution
- Develop and manage comprehensive digital media strategies across Google Ads (Search, Shopping, Display, YouTube) and Paid Social (Meta, LinkedIn, TikTok).
- Oversee monthly media budgets, ensuring pacing is accurate and CPA/ROAS targets are met or exceeded.
- Conduct thorough research, audience segmentation and competitor analysis to identify growth opportunities.
- Develop concise, impactful ad copy tailored to specific audience segments.
- Manage the full campaign lifecycle: from proposal and forecasting to setup, daily optimisation, and post-campaign analysis.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
