Paid Social Executive

Remote | Full-Time Velocity+

Company Description

Velocity is a boutique performance marketing agency built for emerging eCommerce brands ready to scale.

Born from demand for Prospa Media’s services, Velocity exists to serve ambitious brands that want senior-level thinking, structured paid media execution, and in-depth creative strategy - without the complexity of enterprise agencies.

We specialise in:

  • Meta & Google paid media
  • Creative-led performance strategy
  • Structured testing frameworks
  • Clear, accountable growth systems

We are not a “set and forget” agency. We operate with discipline, ownership, and a high performance standard. Velocity is built for operators who want to be excellent at what they do.

Role Description

This is a full-time remote role for a Paid Social Executive within a pod structure.

You will be responsible for owning and executing paid media strategy across Meta and Google for a portfolio of eCommerce brands.

This is not a junior “campaign manager” role. You will be expected to think, challenge, test, and optimise with intent.

You will work closely with:

  • A Creative Designer
  • The Managing Director
  • Client stakeholders

Your core responsibility is to drive measurable performance improvements across client accounts while maintaining clarity, discipline, and momentum.

Key Responsibilities

Paid Media & Strategy Execution

  • Plan, launch, and manage Meta & Google campaigns
  • Structure accounts cleanly and logically
  • Manage budgets and pacing with discipline
  • Optimise campaigns daily based on performance signals
  • Build and maintain testing roadmaps

Creative Led Performance

  • Translate performance data into creative direction
  • Identify creative fatigue early
  • Brief designers with clear performance insight
  • Work closely with creative to iterate and improve ads
  • Treat creative as the primary growth lever

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.
