Performance Director – Activation Governance – Media Agency
Performance Director – Activation Governance (Media Agency)
London | Hybrid (3 days p/w) | Salary to £75,000
A global media agency is hiring a newly created Performance Director role working across a major international consumer health and personal care brand.
This is not a hands-on activation role. It’s a strategic performance governance position for someone who understands paid social and/or programmatic activation deeply and now wants to shape how markets operate at scale.
You’ll sit across 15+ European markets, helping connect upper-funnel media, lower-funnel performance and Amazon activity into one joined-up regional approach.
Why this role stands out:
- Newly created role with genuine scope to shape process, governance and ways of working across Western Europe
- Work across household-name consumer products spanning beauty, oral care and mother & child categories
- Strong focus on test-and-learn, innovation, media governance and regional thought leadership
- Opportunity to influence senior stakeholders across local and regional teams without being buried in day-to-day activation
- Join a high-performing international media and performance team with strong long-term growth opportunities
What they’re looking for:
- Strong background in paid social and/or programmatic activation
- Someone who understands the wider ad-tech and media ecosystem
- Experience driving best practice, QA, governance and operational consistency across teams or market
- Comfortable advising clients on topics like brand safety, measurement, platform strategy and industry change
- Confident managing stakeholders and driving collaboration across multiple markets
Ideal for someone wanting to move beyond campaign execution into a broader strategic, consultative and governance-led remit.
