About Highrise

Highrise is a boutique performance marketing agency specialising in Direct-to-Consumer. We work with some of the newest and most exciting consumer brands, spanning multiple industries. The founding team of Highrise has been involved in successfully scaling multiple businesses from 0 to £100m+ in annual sales. Running and scaling brands is part of our DNA.

Unlike other agencies we don’t just buy media. While we acknowledge the power of Meta, Google and TikTok, we don’t view them as standalone solutions. We combine data, platform innovation, tailored ad creative and CRO to deliver on our clients’ business objectives. Highrise is the full performance marketing agency.

We are a small, growing agency with big ambitions. Our clients’ success is our success and we see ourselves as true partners in their growth. We are a small team of kind, hardworking individuals who aim to do the best by our clients and our colleagues.

The role

This role is pivotal to the success of Highrise and our clients. You are the link between the clients business objectives and our media buying and creative teams.

Working with an Account Director, you will be taking our clients’ business objectives and budgets and turning this into strategic and tactical plans to reach these goals. You will then work closely with platform specialists, media buyers and creative strategists to deliver these.

You will be the guardian of our clients’ day-to-day performance and will have the holistic view of performance across multiple channels. Working with a team of media buyers you will make adjustments to hit our client’s objectives.

You will be in charge of day-to-day communication with our clients. You will be responsible for ensuring that the brands we work with know we are on top of their performance, understand their business and that the team is working to achieve their objectives.

To help you be successful in your role, you will be supported by:

Media buying specialists, managing day to day activities and providing you with insights and analysis directly from the platforms.

About You

T-Shape Marketeer

To help our clients businesses grow we need to understand the full marketing funnel and how each platform plays its part in this. You will have strong knowledge of paid performance channels (Meta and Google) but also be able to advise and support clients on additional channels in the mix. You are likely to be from a background where Meta and Google represented the largest area of marketing spend but you also have experience managing additional channels (i.e. affiliates, email, CRO).

You’ll have a strong technical understanding and not mind getting into the nitty gritty

In order to support your clients you will need to have a good technical understanding of the key tools within their e-commerce ecosystem. You’ll know your way around Shopify, understand and implement tagging and technical integrations between platforms. You’ll be able to troubleshoot if a client is having data issues or trouble with their tagging.

People Person Extraordinaire

Your love for people is infectious. Working with others and being part of dynamic teams energizes you. Building meaningful relationships is not just a job requirement but something you genuinely enjoy. Casual conversations about weather, weekends, and pets are part of your daily routine.

Embraces Challenges with a Can-Do Attitude

You take pride in working smart and ensuring tasks are not just completed but done exceptionally well. A can-do attitude is your mantra, and challenges are seen as opportunities to showcase your capabilities.

A Lifelong Learner

Curiosity fuels you. You have a genuine desire to continuously learn and grow. Mistakes are not setbacks but stepping stones for improvement. You’re resilient, picking yourself up stronger after every stumble.

Master of Organisation

A multitasking maestro, you thrive in being the linchpin between multiple teams. Coordinating seamlessly, you ensure clients’ projects are not just delivered but delivered on time. From project briefing to completion, you know how to map out steps and timings with precision.

Strategic Prioritiser

Your ability to prioritise extends beyond just managing your workload. You identify and focus on actions that bring the most significant impact to clients’ performance, ensuring that your efforts contribute meaningfully to their success.

Agile and Adaptable

You understand that not every day goes according to plan. Adapting to unforeseen challenges is second nature to you. Ad-hoc requests are opportunities for you to shine, and a change of plan doesn’t ruffle your feathers.

Driven by Process

You appreciate the power of processes and tools in managing workloads and roadmaps efficiently. Following and improving established processes is not a chore but a key part of your approach to ensuring tasks are executed seamlessly.

If these traits resonate with you, we’re excited to hear from you. If you’re ready for a role that aligns with your passion and skills, we encourage you to apply.
