This is a rare opportunity to step into a hands-on, in-the-tools role with a fast-growing, scale-up company, working directly alongside the Founder and Head of Growth. The successful candidate will be trusted with real ownership of the Meta accounts from day one, with the chance to be coached and developed quickly inside a genuine slingshot growth opportunity.
This isn't a role buried in strategy decks or sitting several layers removed from the work. The Paid Media Manager will be in Ads Manager daily, making calls, testing, and optimising, with direct exposure to experienced operators who are actively invested in their development. They'll also work closely with an in-house creative team of 6, shaping creative strategy and briefing in new concepts based on what the data is showing.
Our client is ideally looking for a genuine B2B Meta specialist, someone who has run B2B lead gen campaigns end to end and understands the nuances of that audience and funnel.
That said, they're open to candidates with up to 3 years' experience in Meta media buying and a strong lead gen background more broadly, even where B2B exposure is limited to one client, so there is flexibility for the right person.
What matters most is a sharp instinct for ad copy and creative, a data first mindset, and the ability to work independently without needing hand holding.
Responsibilities
The successful candidate will get real ownership across the full Meta function, including:

What's on offer
- Direct mentorship from the Founder and Head of Growth, with strategic input and real investment in your development
