Biddable Account Director

Biddable Account Director

We are hiring a Biddable Account Director to lead multi‑platform performance strategy for a globally recognised luxury brand. This role sits at the intersection of data, media, technology and people — shaping how biddable channels drive measurable business impact. You’ll be a trusted senior partner to clients, a supportive leader to your team, and a catalyst for innovation across paid search and paid social. If you enjoy combining strategic thinking with hands‑on leadership, this is a role where your impact will be felt every day.

What you’ll be doing

• Leading end‑to‑end biddable media strategy, activation and optimisation across search and social channels.
• Acting as a senior client partner, guiding stakeholders through a fast‑evolving media and technology landscape.
• Designing clear measurement frameworks that align activity to business outcomes, not just platform metrics.
• Championing testing, learning and innovation to demonstrate the incremental value of biddable media.
• Embedding strong operational processes, ensuring quality, governance and financial accuracy across accounts.
• Collaborating closely with internal specialists to unlock automation, efficiency and smarter ways of working.
• Creating an environment where teams feel supported, recognised and empowered to do their best work.

Skills we’re looking for

• Proven experience leading biddable media strategy with accountability for performance and results.
• Strong knowledge across paid search and paid social, with the ability to balance strategy, execution and innovation.
• Confidence managing complex client relationships and large‑scale projects with commercial awareness.
• A collaborative leadership style that brings people together and builds trust.
• A data‑informed mindset, with the ability to translate insight into clear, actionable recommendations.
• Comfort working across global accounts and diverse markets (luxury experience is helpful, not essential).
• Curiosity and adaptability — you enjoy learning, evolving and helping others do the same.
