About this job:
As a Senior Media Executive, you’ll take ownership of the planning, activation, optimisation and reporting of digital media campaigns across paid search, paid social and programmatic channels.
You’ll manage campaigns across client accounts, working with senior media leads on broader strategy while being trusted to own delivery, make informed decisions and identify opportunities without waiting to be asked. You’ll also contribute to media planning, reporting, pitches and ad hoc requests across the agency.
This role will suit someone with 2–3 years of experience who is confident working hands-on in platforms and with data, but wants more than simply executing instructions. We’re looking for someone with opinions, pride in their work and the initiative to raise issues, recommend better approaches and follow ideas through.
It won’t suit someone who wants to be a small cog in a large machine. You’ll be given responsibility, visibility and room to prove yourself — with support from senior media specialists as you continue developing your strategic judgement.
Responsibilities
- Support the planning, setup and day-to-day management of paid campaigns across search, social and programmatic.
- Own campaign QA and platform hygiene across budgets, targeting, naming conventions and creative.
- Maintain optimisation, testing and campaign change logs, documenting actions, learnings and next steps.
- Build and maintain campaigns across Google Ads, LinkedIn and Meta, with exposure to programmatic and emerging channels.
- Monitor delivery, pacing, targeting and creative performance, identifying issues and making timely optimisations.
- Collaborate with media leads, creative and account teams to improve campaign performance.
- Produce clear weekly reports and client-ready decks, turning data into concise insights and actions.
- Track platform updates and digital trends, sharing useful developments with the wider team.
- Contribute to media plans, pitches and ad hoc requests, turning briefs into clear channel recommendations.
- Manage multiple live campaigns and shifting priorities with precision and calm.

About Topham Guerin
We are a team of innovators: born digital and focused on results. Our roots in politics taught us how to harness the full potential of digital, building campaigns that don’t just perform, but win. Since then, we’ve helped clients around the world swing elections, shift public perception and drive multi-million-dollar increases in revenue.
We don’t just run ads. We develop strategies and uncover insights that become central to our clients’ success. Whether we’re launching a global movement, reshaping a brand or driving pipeline growth, our work is designed to make a measurable impact.
TG is not for everyone. We expect people at every level to think independently, take ownership and care about the quality of what they produce. In return, you’ll have the opportunity to make a visible contribution, test your ideas and develop faster than you would in a role where you are only responsible for one small part of the work.
If you’re curious, self-starting and motivated by the chance to prove what you can do, we’d like to hear from you.
