Love getting into the platforms? So do we.

We’re looking for a Paid Media Specialist who gets a genuine buzz from opening up an account and working out what’s really going on to work with us either from our HQ in Noosa, or remote.

Someone who knows Google Ads and Meta inside out. Who loves a good performance puzzle. And who can’t wait to walk the client through what they found and what’s next.

If that sounds like you, we’d love to meet you.

The Role

You’ll own a portfolio of Google Ads and Meta accounts, hands on, with our Paid Media Director in your corner.

You’ll be a true extension of our clients’ teams.

Curious about their business.

Proactive about spotting opportunities and issues early.

Consultative in how you share insights and recommend the next move.

And always looking for smarter, more innovative ways to get results.

Strategy runs through everything we do. Here, it starts in the account.

What You Bring
