Paid Media Manager
We usually respond within a day
Data Driven, human inspired content.
Location: London with the ability to work flexibly from office/home.
Who & What are we?
We are a content agency that’s growing fast and transforming our clients’ communications. We think every business deserves smart-thinking, human, targeted content that unlocks possibilities and delivering game-changing results shouldn’t be reserved for the über-brands. And why shouldn’t any brand demand ‘wow’ from their content… whether that’s production, engagement, unlocking ‘always on’ or discovering new platforms and audiences. We do all of this with our “No Nonsense”process. No smoke, no mirrors, just content that works.
Recently listed in the top 100 places to work, we have offices in London, Manchester and Cheltenham, and we offer a hybrid (and dog friendly) working environment, all we ask is that you’re able to access one of the offices when needed.
We are committed to creating a diverse and inclusive workplace culture where
everyone feels respected and included. We welcome and encourage applications
from candidates of all backgrounds, identities and lived experiences.
You might not think that you have all the skills or experience required for this role,
but if you like the sound of us please apply anyway as we prioritise culture fit and
ambition just as much as what you know already. After all, knowledge gaps can be
filled, but you can’t teach personality & attitude.
