About Alphageek

We’re Alphageek — a creative and strategy-led performance marketing agency, partnering with some of the most exciting travel, fashion, and hospitality brands across the UK and beyond. We don’t just run ads — we build brand moments, guide customer journeys, and chase ROI with conviction.

We’re growing fast, but carefully — hiring people who want to learn, test bold ideas, and raise the bar with every campaign. This is not a plug-and-play kind of role. You’ll need to think for yourself, move quickly, and bring both logic and heart to the table. Sound like your kind of jam? Let’s talk.

What you’ll be doing:

• Executing paid social campaigns that turn heads, capture attention, and drive real results across Meta, TikTok, LinkedIn, and other platforms

• Writing compelling ad copy, sourcing or collaborating on eye-catching creatives, and managing campaign structures for success

• Monitoring performance daily, analysing trends, and making smart, data-backed optimisations

• Collaborating directly with clients and internal teams to understand objectives, present insights, and steer campaigns to success

• Supporting wider amplification strategy when needed — we’re a team-first business and often blur the lines between paid and organic to get the best outcome

• Testing new ideas, formats, platforms and keeping up-to-date with evolving ad tools and algorithms

• Reporting on campaign performance with confidence and clarity, helping clients see the full picture of what’s working and where we’re heading next

What we need from you:

• Hands-on experience with 2 + years experience in Meta Ads Manager and ideally other platforms like TikTok Ads or LinkedIn

• Strong understanding of audience segmentation, creative testing, and conversion-led campaign structure

• A proactive mindset — always looking to improve, test and try

• Comfort in analysing data, spotting patterns, and making performance-based decisions

• Excellent communication skills and the ability to confidently collaborate with clients

• A team-first attitude — you’re excited to share knowledge and support wider campaigns

• A creative flair paired with analytical rigour — someone who can think like a brand and act like a performance marketer

This role is for someone who:

• Gets a kick out of CTRs, CPCs and ROAS

• Loves trying new tools and tactics before they go mainstream

• Knows that a killer campaign is equal parts art and science

• Believes in feedback, iteration, and bringing energy to the room

• Wants to be part of an agency with personality, pace, and purpose

• Loves working hard and seeing their efforts grow accounts

Perks & Benefits:

• Hybrid working with flexible hours (core hours 10am–4pm)

• 28 days holiday (including bank holidays) + your birthday off

• Quarterly profit-share bonus via our Cooperative Scheme

• Paycare healthcare benefits after probation (including dental, optical & 24/7 virtual GP)

• Flexi-day on Super Bowl Monday (because we get it)

• Ongoing training budgets and personal development planning

• Team socials, creative workshops, and a voice that matters in how we evolve

• Company MacBook and tech setup

• Alphageek Merch (of course!)
