Performance Marketing Specialist

We are looking for an ambitious, hands-on Performance Marketing Specialist to execute and scale paid acquisition campaigns across global markets.

Based in Cape Town office, you will work directly with our London-based Growth team and report to the Head of Growth.

This is an execution-heavy role built for a junior-to-mid-level marketer who loves getting into the weeds of ad platforms, launching rapid experiments, analysing performance data, and learning by doing. If you are eager to take real ownership of paid media budgets, test creative angles daily, and see the immediate commercial impact of your work, this role is for you.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Hands-On Campaign Management: Build, launch, and manage day-to-day performance marketing campaigns across primary channels (Meta Ads Manager and Google Ads, with scope to test TikTok, OpenAI, LinkedIn, or native networks).
• Rapid Creative & Copy Experimentation: Partner with internal teams to concept, brief, and launch constant creative iterations (hooks, angles, ad formats, and copy) to combat ad fatigue and lower acquisition costs.
• Funnel & Landing Page Optimisation: Run continuous A/B tests on landing pages, lead forms, and user flows to improve conversion rates and lead quality.
• Bid & Budget Management: Monitor daily pacing, manage bid adjustments, and allocate spend efficiently toward high-performing audiences and geographies.
• Tracking & Analytics: Ensure clean tracking across all campaigns using UTMs, conversion pixels, and Google Tag Manager. Monitor performance daily in GA4 and native ad dashboards.
• Data-Driven Iteration: Synthesise weekly performance metrics (CTR, CPA, CAC), identify drop-off points, and turn raw data into concrete test hypotheses for the following sprint.
