Senior Media Buyer

Media Buyer Our Mission: At Quantum Spark Advertising, we give £0–20k/month eCommerce brands access to the same calibre of growth strategy, media buying, and creative that agencies reserve for brands spending £50k/month — without the fees that don't make sense or the contracts that lock people in. We partner with ambitious DTC brands to turn inconsistent sales into predictable growth through expertly managed paid advertising campaigns on Meta, TikTok, and Google. Our goal is to become the UK's leading agency for early-stage eCommerce brands. What We're Building: We help eCommerce brands at the toughest stage of their journey — too big to DIY, too small for most agencies to take seriously. From first winning campaign to consistent, scalable revenue, we deliver results through collaboration, creativity, and data-driven strategy, with daily optimisation instead of "set and forget." What We Look For: • Autodidact — You are curious, a fast learner, and thrive in environments that reward initiative and self-improvement through feedback. • Unimpeachable Character — Integrity and accountability are non-negotiable for you. You take ownership, embrace feedback, and stay humble while striving for greatness. • Competitive Greatness — You perform at your best when it matters most. Challenges fuel you, resilience defines you, and you adapt quickly to find solutions. What You'll Do: • Manage and optimise paid media campaigns across Meta, TikTok, and Google. • Develop and execute strategies tailored to each client's stage and revenue goals — not generic playbooks built for bigger brands. • Collaborate with our in-house creative team to produce high-performing ad content, included as standard for every client. • Analyse campaign data daily to generate insights and drive optimisations. • Build strong client relationships through weekly updates and bi-weekly strategy calls. • Stay ahead of industry trends to keep campaigns innovative. The Evolving Role of a Media Buyer: The media buying landscape is changing, driven by AI and automation. Tactical tasks like bidding and audience refinement are increasingly automated.

Your role will focus on: • Crafting creative strategies based on data insights. • Identifying big-picture growth opportunities for brands still finding their footing. • Innovating through methodical, hypothesis-driven testing. • Interpreting nuanced data trends. • Leading strategic conversations with clients who are relying on you to teach them what they don't yet know — tracking, attribution, the metrics that actually matter. • Continuous learning, adaptability, and strategic thinking are critical for thriving in an AI-enhanced advertising world. Leadership: You'll work closely with our senior leadership team, receiving structured feedback, strategic mentorship, and challenges designed to accelerate your career growth. Expect to be supported and inspired daily. What's In It for You? • Competitive salary, dependent on experience. • Lucrative commission scheme with potential to earn additional income annually.
