About this role
Lead paid media for a fast-growing DTC homewares brand, up to £60k, Birmingham (hybrid) About the Business Our client is an established direct-to-consumer premium homewares business based near Birmingham. It has a loyal customer base and a strong reputation for quality. They are looking for an Ecommerce Marketing Manager to join their team. The Role You'll take full ownership of a seven-figure annual paid media budget. You'll be hands-on from day one. You'll run Meta and Google yourself, own Klaviyo, and take responsibility for how well the website converts. This is not an agency-management role. The founders want someone who works inside the accounts. That means launching campaigns and new creative, reviewing results after a couple of weeks, cutting what isn't working and scaling what is. There's plenty of low-hanging fruit, and your work will have a direct, visible effect on revenue and profit. As the business scales, there's a genuine path to Head of Marketing, with the chance to build your own team. What You'll Be Doing Paid media (Meta & Google), the core of the role • Take over full, hands-on management of Meta and Google Ads, including campaign structure, bidding, budgets, audiences and reporting • Manage a seven-figure annual spend, with a sharp focus on ROAS, CAC and profitable growth • Keep a steady pipeline of new creative live, including campaigns for every new product launch • Brief and manage UGC creators and outside creative support when needed • Test, review, trim and scale on a regular cycle, and bring new ideas to the founders without waiting to be asked Email & SMS (Klaviyo) • Take ownership of Klaviyo from the founders, building on the existing flows (browse abandonment, cart abandonment and sample purchases) • Grow repeat purchases and customer lifetime value with campaigns, segmentation and new flows Website conversion • Own conversion across the site, including product pages, checkout and merchandising • Plan and run a structured testing programme (A/B tests, landing pages, offers) and turn the results into revenue • Use customer insight and buying behaviour to help shoppers buy with confidence. This is a considered, high-value purchase, and the information you give customers matters. Commercial ownership • Report clearly on performance and what it means for the business • Work closely with the founders on promotions, trading peaks and growth plans What We're Looking For • Strong, hands-on experience running Meta and Google Ads yourself, not just overseeing an agency, ideally at significant spend in ecommerce or DTC • An all-round ecommerce marketer whose biggest strength is paid media • Solid working knowledge of Klaviyo or a similar email/SMS platform • Experience improving website conversion through testing, product page optimisation and merchandising • A commercial mindset: you understand unit economics and think in margin, ROAS and revenue, not just clicks • A genuine self-starter who spots opportunities and acts on them without needing constant direction, and knows when to bring the founders in • Comfortable in a small, fast-moving team where you own the results • Ambition and potential to grow into a Head of Marketing role A passion for homewares isn't required. The founders care far more about sharp thinking and results. Bonus points for: experience in homewares, interiors or other high-value, considered-purchase products; WooCommerce experience; briefing UGC creators or working with freelancers. What's In It For You • Salary up to £60,000, depending on experience • Full ownership of a significant budget, with direct access to the founders • A first-hire role with real influence over the growth of an established brand • A clear route to progress into Head of Marketing • Additional benefits – holiday, pension, product discount, hybrid working, etc. How to Apply This search is being managed exclusively by The Growth Foundation on behalf of a confidential client.
