Introduction
We are an established digital marketing agency looking for a PPC Executive. As a small business, we are looking for someone who is ambitious, takes ownership of tasks and projects, cares about clients, likes to get involved in decisions and agency life, gets to know the people they work with and is looking to work in a highly supportive environment.
The Job
At Common Ground, every member of staff is responsible for their own client list and due to increasing demand, we are looking to expand our team. This opportunity has fantastic scope for progression.
The right person will initially support a more senior member of the team while they learn our processes and clients. Over a couple of months, you will then progress to running your own clients with full support, before transitioning to taking full responsibility for all aspects of those client relationships.
Once you’re managing your own clients you will be involved in strategy creation (with the support of a senior team member), implementation of the PPC campaigns, managing freelance resources, client communication, and reporting. Most importantly you’ll be producing measurable results for our clients.
We believe that client success is repeatable using the processes we have developed. You will be supported to learn (by doing, documentation and videos) and deploy them, as well as having input into developing them further.

The Company
Common Ground was formed by Dan & Matt, both highly experienced and enthusiastic digital marketers and business people. As a company, we are committed to delivering exceptional results for our clients, constantly evolving and improving our approach, and supporting our team to develop and grow.
We have a mix of clients at different stages of their business growth and across different sectors, although we work best with (and have multiple clients in) B2B SaaS and technology. We recruit clients we are excited to work with, who are willing to work closely with us and listen to our advice, and for who we firmly believe we can make a difference to their business. We do not chase every client opportunity presented to us.
Common Ground won’t suit everyone, we are very passionate about what we deliver, how we do it and constant improvement. However, it is the perfect place for people who want to be supported to develop and progress in their careers.
