We’re working with a growing independent digital agency to find a Director of Performance to join its senior leadership team.
The agency specialises in digital and social-led campaigns designed to drive action and measurable results for charity clients. Their work brings together paid social, creative, data and digital technology, delivering high-volume campaigns for purpose-led organisations across the UK and international markets.
This is a broad leadership role for someone who understands what makes digital campaigns perform and can bring together the people, thinking and disciplines needed to continually improve results.
You’ll need a strong understanding of paid social and digital acquisition, experience overseeing significant campaign budgets, and the ability to use data and insight to shape strategy.
You’ll have strategic oversight of a portfolio of client programmes, leading a multidisciplinary team across creative, digital and analytics while working closely with senior clients.
