Performance Media Manager
6-Month FTC | £50,000–£60,000 | London (3 days in the office) | ASAP Start
We're partnering with an award-winning communications agency looking for a Performance Media Manager to join the team on an initial six-month fixed-term contract, with strong potential to extend.
This isn't your typical Paid Media role.
You'll be leading paid media activity for a high-profile international campaign, working across 50+ global markets to build awareness, engagement, and registrations for a major international conference.
It's a brilliant opportunity for someone who enjoys solving complex marketing challenges, thrives in collaborative environments, and wants to work on campaigns that genuinely make an impact.
What you'll be doing
- Planning, buying, and optimising paid media campaigns across multiple international markets
- Leading Paid Social activity across Meta and LinkedIn
- Supporting campaigns across YouTube, Google Ads, and X
- Using organic social content within paid campaigns to maximise engagement
- Monitoring campaign performance using platform insights, engagement metrics, and sentiment analysis
- Working closely with Creative, Content, Web, and Technical teams to continually improve campaign performance
- Reporting on campaign success and making data-driven optimisation recommendations
- Helping shape media strategy while remaining hands-on in campaign delivery
