Our passionate team is driven to help even more SMEs succeed, through access to better finance and other services that make running a business easier. Our ultimate mission is to support one million SMEs in their defining moments, creating lasting impact for the communities and economies they drive.

The team

The Performance Marketing team sits within the wider Direct Acquisition team, which also includes sales and brand. We are responsible for supporting the top of funnel growth of our core lending business across a number of offline and online channels from Mail to Search and Social.

The role

We’re looking to hire a junior marketer to manage our Paid Social creative process and work with our senior paid social manager to scale the overall channel across a number of different platforms. We’ve seen considerable growth in the past year, but need to expand the team to ensure we can effectively double down on our winning creative strategy. In this role you’ll help run our campaigns across Meta and TikTok, manage a pipeline of new creative with a combination of in-house and agency design resources and help us scope out new opportunities to drive customer growth via paid media.

• Collaborate with our growing Brand & Design function to level up our creative in line with our evolving brand strategy.

• Take ownership of our competitor tracking across digital channels to ensure our creative strategy is informed by wider industry benchmarks.

Monitoring & Reporting

• Monitor and communicate performance across platforms, creative assets, landing pages etc.

• Report channel performance on a weekly/monthly basis to wider team stakeholders.

• Own dashboards in Looker, leveraging our channel data for efficient test monitoring.

• A strong understanding of social media and an awareness of industry best practices

• A creative thinker with the ability to go beyond administrative repetitive tasks, able to identify opportunities independently and be bold in raising them

• Naturally curious and keen to learn from the wider team

• Strong copywriting skills and an excellent eye for detail

• An ability to interpret complex data and translate it into actionable recommendations

• Strong communication skills, comfortable collaborating with stakeholders from diverse backgrounds and seniority levels

• Well organised, able to effectively manage their time in accordance with priorities.
