Performance Marketing Executive

• *Job Summary**

The **Performance Marketing Executive** owns hands\-on setup, management, and optimization of paid campaigns across Google, Meta, and LinkedIn for a portfolio of GS Digital client accounts, working under the direction of the Digital Strategist. The portfolio spans two very different models: B2B lead generation for long\-cycle, high\-consideration industries, where lead quality matters more than lead volume; and retail / e\-commerce, where revenue and ROAS are the measure. This is an execution and optimization role — the Digital Strategist sets account strategy and owns client budget conversations; this role makes the campaigns perform.

• *Job Responsibilities**

• *1\. Campaign Build \& Management**

• Build, launch, and manage paid campaigns across Google Ads (Search, Performance Max, Shopping, Display, YouTube), Meta Ads (Facebook, Instagram), and LinkedIn Ads, in line with the account strategy set by the Digital Strategist.
• B2B lead generation: structure campaigns for qualified enquiries — LinkedIn Lead Gen Forms, company and job\-title targeting, Google Search on buyer\-intent terms, and lead form quality controls.
• Retail / e\-commerce: manage Google Merchant Center product feeds, Shopping and Performance Max campaigns, Meta catalogue and Advantage\+ Shopping campaigns, and remarketing to cart and product viewers.
• Run pre\-launch QA on every campaign — tracking, URLs, targeting, budgets, and creative approvals — before anything goes live.

• *2\. Optimization \& Testing**

• Optimize campaigns weekly: bidding strategies, audiences, negative keywords, search term reviews, placements, and budget reallocation across campaigns and platforms.
• Plan and run structured A/B tests on creative, copy, audiences, and landing pages, and document what was tested, the result, and the decision taken.
• Maintain a weekly optimization log per account, so every change is traceable to a reason and an outcome.
• Turn performance data into creative briefs for the Creative Studio — which hooks, formats, and messages are winning, and what to produce next.

• *3\. Tracking \& Measurement**

• Set up and maintain conversion tracking using Google Tag Manager and GA4, including Meta Conversions API, Google Enhanced Conversions, LinkedIn Insight Tag, and Consent Mode.
• Verify that every conversion is firing correctly at launch and after any website change, and flag tracking gaps to the Digital Strategist and Development team immediately.
• For B2B accounts, support the flow of lead data back to client CRMs and offline conversion imports, so campaigns optimize toward qualified leads, not form fills.

• *4\. Budget Planning \& Pacing**

• Prepare media plans, budget splits, and forecast scenarios for the Digital Strategist to review and present to clients.
• Monitor daily spend and pacing against approved budgets, and flag over\- or under delivery early.

• *5\. Reporting**

• Deliver weekly execution updates (work completed, issues, next steps) and monthly performance reports per GS Digital's reporting standards, using platform data, GA4, and Looker Studio / Zoho Analytics.
• Report on business outcomes — cost per qualified lead, ROAS, CPA, revenue — and keep vanity metrics (impressions, clicks, raw CTR) in context.
• Support the Digital Strategist in client performance reviews with clear, accurate analysis and recommendations.

• *6\. AI\-Assisted Delivery**

• Use platform automation (Performance Max, Advantage\+, smart bidding) with judgment — knowing when to rely on it and when to constrain it.
• Adopt and maintain agency AI workflow standards for research, ad copy drafting, analysis, and reporting as they evolve, and log AI tool usage against client deliverables as required by delivery protocols.

• *Required Skills \& Qualifications**

• 2–3 years of hands\-on paid media experience, agency\-side preferred, managing live budgets across multiple client accounts.
• Proven hands\-on experience with Google Ads and Meta Ads Manager; working experience with LinkedIn Campaign Manager.
• Experience running both lead\-generation and e\-commerce campaigns, including Google Merchant Center, Shopping / Performance Max, and Meta catalogue campaigns.
• Strong working knowledge of Google Tag Manager and GA4, and familiarity with Meta Conversions API and Enhanced Conversions.
• Strong analytical skills — comfortable with spreadsheets, campaign data, and drawing clear conclusions from them.
• Excellent written English — this role produces client\-facing reports and updates for GCC clients.
• Comfortable working with technical, industrial, and built\-environment sectors (construction, engineering, manufacturing, real estate); prior exposure is an advantage, not a prerequisite.
• Bachelor’s degree in marketing, Business, or a related field, or equivalent demonstrated experience.
