With an expanding client portfolio and exciting growth plans, they're looking for a talented PPC Specialist / Paid Search Specialist to join their friendly, collaborative team.

This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who loves the technical side of paid media, enjoys developing clever campaign strategies and wants to make a real impact rather than simply manage accounts.

Working across a varied portfolio of clients and industries, you'll take ownership of paid advertising campaigns, developing strategies that drive traffic, generate quality leads and deliver measurable ROI.

You'll work alongside talented specialists in SEO, digital marketing, creative and web development, giving you the opportunity to collaborate, share ideas and contribute to the agency's continued growth.

What You'll Be Doing

• Planning, building, managing and optimising Google Ads and PPC campaigns across Search, Display, Shopping and Performance Max.
• Developing effective paid search strategies focused on lead generation, conversions and return on investment.

• Conducting keyword research, competitor analysis and ongoing campaign optimisation.
• Using Google Analytics 4 (GA4), Google Tag Manager and Google Ads conversion tracking to analyse performance and identify opportunities.

• Running A/B tests across ad copy, landing pages and campaign structures.
• Producing insightful performance reports and communicating recommendations to clients.
• Keeping ahead of the latest developments in Google Ads, AI-driven advertising, automation and paid media trends.

What We're Looking For

Ideally, you'll bring:

• Proven experience in PPC, Paid Search or Paid Media, ideally gained within a digital marketing agency.
• Strong hands-on experience managing and optimising Google Ads campaigns.
• Knowledge of Performance Max, Search, Display, Shopping and remarketing campaigns.
• Confidence using GA4, Google Tag Manager, Looker Studio and conversion tracking.
• An analytical mindset and the ability to turn campaign data into meaningful improvements.
• Experience managing multiple client accounts, budgets and competing priorities.
• Excellent communication skills and the confidence to discuss campaign performance and strategy with clients.
• A proactive, commercially minded approach with a genuine passion for digital marketing.

Experience with Microsoft Advertising (Bing Ads), Meta Ads, paid social or conversion rate optimisation (CRO) would be a bonus.

Why Join?

Because this isn't just another PPC role.

This is your chance to become part of a growing Northamptonshire agency where you can have a real voice, influence campaign strategy and see the direct impact of your work.

What makes this opportunity exciting?

• >£37,000+ salary depending on experience.
• Hybrid working offering a balance of office collaboration and flexibility.
• A growing independent agency with exciting ambitions and opportunities to develop.
• Variety and creativity working with clients across different sectors.
• Real ownership of campaigns, strategy and performance.
