THE ROLE 
You’ll own and grow paid media performance across a portfolio of client accounts — planning, building, and relentlessly optimising campaigns across Google and Meta. You’ll be hands-on every day, but never on autopilot.
Key Areas of Responsibility
- Plan, build, and manage paid search (Google Ads) and paid social (Meta Ads) campaigns across a portfolio of agency clients
- Carry out keyword research, audience research, ad copywriting, and creative briefing to support high-performing campaigns
- Monitor and optimise campaigns daily/weekly — bids, budgets, targeting, ad copy, and creative rotation
- Set up and maintain accurate conversion tracking and tagging (GA4, Google Tag Manager, Meta Pixel/Conversions API)
- Produce clear, jargon-free client reporting, and support client calls to explain performance and next steps
- Stay ahead of platform updates, betas, and best practice across Google and Meta, testing new features and formats
- Collaborate with the wider team (SEO, web, creative) to keep paid activity aligned with broader client strategy
What We're Looking For
- Solid hands-on experience running Google Ads and Meta Ads campaigns (agency or in-house)
- Confident with GA4, Google Tag Manager, and Meta Business Suite / Conversions API
- A strong analytical mindset — comfortable digging into data and turning it into action
- A great communicator, able to explain performance to non-specialist clients
- Highly organised, with the ability to manage multiple accounts at once
- Genuine curiosity for testing new ad formats, betas, and platform features
Key Performance Indicators
- Campaign performance against agreed client KPIs (CPA, ROAS, CTR, conversion rate) — hit or improved month-on-month
- Account hygiene: budgets, tracking, and campaign structures maintained to agency standard, with zero preventable errors
- Client reporting delivered on time, every time, with insight — not just data
- Client retention and satisfaction on your accounts
- Number of new tests, optimisations, or platform features implemented per month
Our Reputation precedes us 
We initially approached Big GUn Digital to help us sort out some technical background work realigning our Meta and Google accounts after a domain name change. They handled everything quickly and professionally.
We were so impressed we moved straight into their monthly marketing support package. Since then, we’ve seen a dramatic improvement in our return on marketing investment. The results have been excellent.
We’ve now also engaged them to manage the migration of our website to a new platform, and that project is already well underway.
Big Gun Digital are knowledgeable, responsive, and genuinely invested in delivering results. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to any business looking for reliable, effective digital marketing support.
