About the role

  • Own the paid media strategy across US and International, aligned to company growth priorities and segment needs (SMB single-seat and growing multi-seat segments).
  • Translate growth priorities into channel plans, budget allocation, forecasting, and pacing guardrails.
  • Define and enforce execution standards for account structure, optimisation approach, testing cadence, and measurement hygiene across channels.
  • Partner with Centres of Excellence (Brand, Creative, SEO, Sites, Analytics and Operations, Product Marketing, CLM, Corporate Comms) to ensure paid plans integrate with priorities, creative systems, and measurement.
  • Lead weekly and monthly business rhythms: performance reviews, learnings, test backlog prioritisation, scale or stop decisions, and trade-off resolution.
  • Drive high-quality communication to senior stakeholders with clear narratives: what changed, why it changed, what we learned, what we will do next.
  • Lead and develop channel owners (SEM, Paid Social and OLV, Display, TV and Offline) with clear accountability, coaching, and elevated execution standards.
  • Ensure strong agency collaboration where agencies are in place, including disciplined knowledge capture, documentation, and transition readiness.
  • Directly manage agencies dedicated to supporting the paid media acquisition effort.
  • Be capable of stepping into accounts to troubleshoot pacing, diagnose performance issues, validate measurement integrity, and unblock execution when needed (especially during transitions, launches, or performance dips).

Requirements

  • 10+ years in paid media / performance marketing with direct accountability for acquisition outcomes.
  • Multi-channel ownership across paid search, paid social, video, and familiarity with offline measurement concepts.
  • Strong commercial judgement on pacing and scaling.
  • Exceptional communication and stakeholder influence in a matrixed environment.
  • Proven people leadership and coaching capability.
  • Experience operating across multiple markets and localisation contexts (Preferred).
  • Experience managing blended in-house plus agency delivery models (Preferred).
  • Experience in B2B SaaS or subscription, ideally serving SMB audiences (Preferred).
