OVERVIEW
We’re Sleeping Giant Media. A multi-award-winning digital marketing agency on a mission to make digital better. From Folkestone to Europe, we help businesses grow through smart strategy, creative thinking and genuine partnership.
Right now, we’re looking for a Paid Executive to join our growing team. As part of our journey toward B Corp certification, we’re building a workplace grounded in equity, transparency and purpose. Where impact matters just as much as performance.
In this role, you’ll support the planning, execution, and optimisation of paid search and social campaigns across key platforms, such as Google Ads, Microsoft Ads, Meta Ads, and LinkedIn Ads. You’ll collaborate closely with Strategic Account Managers and the wider Paid Team, providing data-driven insights and strategies to deliver exceptional results for our clients.
This is a great opportunity for someone with some foundational experience in paid media - perhaps you've worked in a junior role, completed an internship, or had some hands-on exposure to paid media. You’ll already have a basic understanding of how paid media works and be confident using key platforms, but you’re now looking to deepen your expertise and take on more responsibility. If you're keen to learn, excited to grow and want to be part of a supportive and purpose-driven team, you’ll fit right in.
REQUIREMENTS
1. Minimum 1 year of Paid Media experience, either in-house or at an agency.
2. Proven experience in building and optimising campaigns on Google Ads (mandatory) and Meta Ads (mandatory); Microsoft Ads, LinkedIn Ads, or other platform experience is a plus.
3. Strong analytical skills for interpreting data and optimising campaign performance.
4. Excellent organisational, project management, and time management skills.
5. A keen interest in cultural trends and an eye for what’s coming next.
6. Google Ads certification (Search and Display) is a plus.
7. Facebook Blueprint certification is desirable but not essential.
We know that no candidate will tick every box. If you’re excited about this role and believe you could be a good fit, we encourage you to apply.

2. Healthcare cash plan (includes dependants)
