We're looking for a hands-on, strategic digital marketing specialist to lead our performance marketing efforts across a group of exciting brands. This role is ideal for someone who thrives in both the thinking and the doing - blending high-level digital strategy with the execution and analysis of PPC and SEO campaigns.

This is what you'll be doing:

• Developing and delivering effective PPC and SEO strategies that drive growth across multiple brands.
• Executing and managing day-to-day search marketing campaigns, including keyword research, ad copy creation, bid management, and optimisation.
• Using data-driven insights and analytics to track performance and refine campaign activity.
• Ensure all brands rank highly in search engines, staying on top of industry trends and algorithm changes.
• Use a variety of tools and platforms (e.g., Google Ads, GA4, Search Console, SEMrush, Ahrefs) to optimise performance.
• Report directly to the Board, providing clear insight into performance, opportunities, and ROI.

The skills and experience you'll bring to the team:

• Proven experience in hands-on PPC and SEO - strategy, execution, and analysis.
• Strong understanding of performance metrics, keyword planning, and search engine algorithms.
• Experience working across multiple brands or a portfolio.
• Comfortable working autonomously - this is a standalone role with no direct reports. (Creative work is outsourced to an agency)
• Analytical mindset, confident using data to drive decisions and improve results.
• An interest in sports, media, or advertising would be a big plus.

The excellent benefits you'll receive in return:

• You'll take a key role in shaping digital growth for a portfolio of brands.
• Direct line to senior leadership with real impact and autonomy.
• An environment focused on grassroots execution, not layers of management.
• Opportunity to grow your profile and influence as the digital lead in a dynamic, evolving business.
• Competitive starting salary
• On site parking
• Early finish on a Friday.
• Bonus after 2 years of continuous service.
• Additional annual leave after 5 & 7 years of continuous service.
• Sickness pay scheme.
• Referral scheme bonus
