Remote Performance Marketing Lead

Salary up to £50k

Fully remote (1 day a month in Manchester city centre offices)**

Forward Role are excited to exclusively partner with an Automotive Retail business as they undergo a period of digital transformation, not just in regards to their Paid accounts but every single aspect of their digital marketing. Historically quite traditional in their processes, the organisation have invested heavily recently in a journey to become digitally focussed through and through - the Performance team sitting at the very heart of some impressive growth targets!

Recruiting a brand new team, the talented Head of Performance requires their new paid hires to assist in off-boarding the accounts from agency, bring in house and build & scale as you both see fit - you'll primarily be working across Paid Search, Paid Social and Display and be directly managing a brand new Paid Media Executive, whom we are also recruiting for.

Flexibility is at the forefront of many jobseekers minds at the moment, with the rising costs of living and the significant decrease in the volume of fully remote opportunities means this role certainly does stand out from the crowd! Aside from a once monthly visit to the Manchester office for a team day, you can work this role from anywhere in the UK.

Core responsibilities include:

• Demonstrate a strong understanding of all Paid Media elements, including campaign planning, implementing, managing, and reporting.
• Assist in devising and driving channel strategies
• Continual optimisation of paid activity to provide cost-efficient, incremental value
• Complete performance reports to a high standard, offering context and insight
• Employ a consistent test and learn approach for any new implementations across channels
• Work closely with external partners and account managers to constantly develop and add value to paid activity
• Develop strong relationships with all internal departments and teams.

Your skills & experience:

• 3 years’ specialist experience working in a fast-paced Paid Media team across 2 or more areas (paid search, paid social, affiliates, display or Youtube)
• Strong understanding of marketing funnels, attribution, and conversion journeys
• A high degree of numeracy with great Excel & Google Analytics knowledge
• Ability to identify issues and be pro-active in providing solutions

What you will receive in return for your skills & experience:

• Competitive package
• Full support to work your role fully remotely
• Opportunity to build and scale 6 figure performance accounts as you see fit – truly a career changing opportunity
• Days off for birthdays, moving house or getting married, plus paid time off every month to do something that makes you happy : )
• Quarterly socials, pension, healthcare, additional holidays for length of service, enhanced parental leave to name a few!

** Please note – there are currently no provisions to sponsor overseas workers, so please only apply to this role if you have the current right to work in the UK.
