What You'll Need

• Strong experience of hands-on performance marketing experience, ideally in a fast-paced agency, media, content, or high-growth in-house environment. We’re open on exact years of experience - what matters most is your technical ability, curiosity, and attitude.
• Strong paid search experience, with the confidence to build, manage, and optimise campaigns day to day, including search query analysis, bid optimisation, budget pacing, and performance reporting.
• Experience with Google Marketing Platform, especially SA360 and Campaign Manager. DV360 experience would be a big plus, particularly if you’ve worked on programmatic display campaigns.
• Experience managing paid social campaigns, ideally in Meta Ads Manager, with a good understanding of how creative, audiences, placements, and formats affect performance.
• A proper performance mindset. You enjoy digging into the numbers, finding wasted spend, spotting growth opportunities, and working out what we should do next.
• Good tracking and reporting hygiene. You understand why UTMs, conversion tracking, audiences, naming conventions, and clean campaign setup matter.
• A roll-your-sleeves-up attitude. We move quickly, things change, and there’s always something new to figure out. You’ll enjoy this role if you like pace, variety, ownership, and the odd “this isn’t technically my job, but I can help” moment.
• This role will suit someone driven, proactive, and commercially minded, but also kind, low-ego, positive, and fun to work with.

Things to note

• 🐶 Just to let you know, we are a dog-friendly company, so you may see our four-legged friends in the offices - feel free to bring yours! Rest assured though, we've taken lots of precautions for those who have allergies.
• 🤖 We use AI to help us assess applications fairly and objectively. We’re totally fine with you using AI as a tool to help prepare too. That said, when we get to the interview and assessment stage, we’re really interested in hearing your unique perspective and real-world stories. That’s the stuff we can’t get from a bot or a prompt!

The electric revolution has arrived - and from 2035 you’ll no longer be able to buy a new petrol or diesel car in the UK.

We’re building a whole new way for drivers to join the electric charge and not only learn about and shop for their EV online, but experience a 'lease for life' through an industry-changing customer experience. This is the chance to join one of the UK’s most exciting start-ups – making it easy for individuals and businesses to go electric by getting their car, charger, and energy all in one cracking deal.

Studies have shown that some groups of people, like women, are less likely to apply to a role unless they meet 100% of the job requirements. Whoever you are, if you like one of our jobs, we encourage you to apply as you might just be the candidate we hire. Across Octopus, we're looking for genuinely decent people who are honest and empathetic. Our people are our strongest asset and the unique skills and perspectives people bring to the team are the driving force of our success. As an equal opportunity employer, we do not discriminate on the basis of any protected attribute. Our commitment is to provide equal opportunities, an inclusive work environment, and fairness for everyone.

Where necessary, we sometimes use AI tools to help with parts of our hiring process, like reviewing applications or assessing responses. We’re lucky to receive a huge amount of interest, so these tools help our recruiters manage that volume, not replace them. Ultimately, every hiring decision (for example, whether to progress your application or not) is always made by a real person in our Talent team.
