Salary to £65,000

Ideal role for a senior biddable activation specialist who enjoys being close to campaign delivery, but wants broader operational ownership and strategic influence across international markets.

This isn’t a hands-on activation role. It’s about building structure, improving workflows, driving operational excellence and helping standardise multi-channel media buying across a centralised international hub model.

Why this role stands out:

Huge international scope across multiple EMEA markets and significant media budgets
Mix of strategic oversight, operational leadership and activation governance
Opportunity to shape processes, automation, workflow efficiencies and toolkit standardisation across activation delivery
Work alongside highly capable activation specialists across Programmatic, Paid Search and Paid Social
Senior stakeholder exposure without moving too far away from the reality of campaign execution

The role:

Lead operational delivery and campaign governance across multi-channel biddable activity
Collaborate closely with local market teams to ensure consistency in campaign execution, reporting and QA standards
Oversee workflows, briefing processes, budgeting, SLAs and operational delivery across international markets
Drive process improvement, automation initiatives and scalable activation frameworks
Act as the senior escalation point across campaign delivery and operational challenges
Support optimisation strategy and performance delivery across large-scale campaigns

What they’re looking for:

Senior level experience across Programmatic, Paid Search and/or Paid Social activation
Strong operational and programme management capability within agency environments
Experience managing scaled campaign delivery across multiple markets (ideally)
Excellent stakeholder management and communication skills
Strong understanding of activation workflows, governance and campaign operations
