We're actively committed to creating a positive impact for our people, planet and community. The Role We are looking for a strategic Director within our Paid Media department to act as the effectiveness backbone of our team. While our Heads of service define what we do, you will define how we do it. You will be responsible for the 3-5 year vision of the department's delivery model. Your mission is to enable and empower our teams to deliver industry-leading work effectively and efficiently, ensuring we have the right skills, processes, and technology embedded into our daily workflows. This is more than an operational role - you will ensure that we develop a department that can truly enact on our agency's promises - account performance and growth. You will bridge the gap between technical innovation and practical application, ensuring our agency leads from the front when it comes to delivering industry-defining work. Key Responsibilities Delivery Effectiveness Workflow optimisation: You will proactively work with delivery teams to discover operational pain points and bottlenecks.

You will own and review the department's tool stack to ensure it supports the team's needs whilst considering cost and GP implications. Project Management & Rollout: You will act as the project manager for new tools and technology. You will ensure builds meet specifications and, crucially, oversee the rollout to ensure new tech is successfully embedded into day-to-day ways of working.

About You An Operational Leader: You have a track record of transforming how teams work. You look at a department and see opportunities for efficiency, automation, and better processes. A Change Agent: You are experienced in change management - specifically in getting large teams to adopt new tools and processes. A Strategic Planner: You can look 3-5 years into the future to predict what skills and capabilities a leading agency will need. Commercially Astute: You understand that operational efficiency drives margin. You can balance the need for robust process with the need for commercial agility. Collaborative: You can work alongside craft specialists (eg. Head of Paid Search, Head of Paid Social) to ensure their technical vision is executable in the real world. Starting salary from: £64,900 (+£6k London weighting if you are live within the Greater London area) What makes us different We are proud to be listed on the "Flexa 100" Most Flexible Companies to work for and to be officially recognised as a Great Place to Work .

We're committed to embracing diversity and promoting equal opportunities, both within our teams and through the services we provide. But we know we still have work to do. Improving fairness - in our agency and our industry - is something we're passionate about, and we're committed to having the conversations, making the changes and helping other businesses to do the same. We pledge to promote equal opportunities and, as per the Equality Act 2010, will not tolerate discrimination on the grounds of: gender, gender identity, marital status, sexual orientation, race, colour, nationality, religion, age, disability, caring responsibilities or beliefs.
