We’re Hiring

Paid Performance Manager

A bit about the role 

Location: Dundee/Glasgow (Hybrid)

Salary: Competitive, dependent on experience.

Role: Permanent, Full-time, 35 hours per week.

Paid media is changing. We’re looking for someone who wants to stay ahead of it. We’re looking for an experienced and enthusiastic Paid Performance Manager to join the digital team at Altar.

This is a hands-on role for someone who knows their way around Google Ads, understands what makes campaigns perform and is curious enough to keep questioning what could work better. Google Ads will sit at the heart of the role, but you’ll work across a wider paid media mix including Meta, LinkedIn, TikTok and YouTube, helping clients make smarter decisions about where and how they invest their budgets. You won’t just manage campaigns. You’ll understand the data behind them, spot opportunities others might miss and turn performance into clear recommendations clients can actually act on.

Benefits 

What we are looking for 

  • Minimum of two years’ hands-on PPC experience, ideally gained across a mix of agency and/or in-house environments.
  • Google Ads as a core strength, including Search, Performance Max, YouTube and other campaign types.
  • Experience managing Meta campaigns, with working knowledge of LinkedIn, TikTok and/or Microsoft Ads.
  • A solid understanding of GA4, GTM, conversion tracking and campaign measurement.
  • Experience managing advertising budgets and making informed decisions about how spend is allocated.
  • Strong analytical skills and the ability to turn performance data into clear actions.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
  • Serious attention to detail. You’re the person who notices the tracking issue, the strange performance shift or the budget drifting off pace.
  • A proactive mindset. You look for opportunities and bring ideas rather than simply managing what’s already there.
  • Curiosity. What worked last year won’t necessarily work next year, and you’ll want to understand what’s changing and why. 

How to apply

If Google Ads is your thing, you enjoy finding opportunities hidden in the data and you’re excited about where paid media and search are heading, we’d love to hear from you, drop your CV and cover letter across to [email protected]
