As a Paid Search Manager, you'll lead Google Ads execution across a range of exciting brands. You’ll manage large budgets, work directly with clients, and use top-tier tools to drive measurable performance. This is a hands-on, growth-focused role for someone who wants responsibility and results—without the corporate bloat.

Background

Launch With Us is one of the UK’s fastest-growing performance marketing agencies. Since 2021, we’ve helped D2C brands like Khanum’s, Lucy & Lola, Bubble Panda, and DJK achieve standout results through paid media and creative that converts.

We're now expanding our Paid Search team and looking for a sharp, proactive manager to take charge of client performance. You’ll build, scale, and optimise high-budget campaigns and work directly with senior leadership to improve results, processes, and strategy.

Using tools like Triple Whale, GA4, and Shopify, you’ll own every element of your campaigns—from account setup to performance reporting—ensuring we hit KPIs like CAC, NC-ROAS, and eROAS.

Key Responsibilities:

• You enjoy working directly with clients and delivering clear, strategic insights
• You’re constantly learning and testing new ideas to stay ahead of the curve
• You’re collaborative and contribute positively to team culture
