Company Description About us Hello, we’re Reach.

Your story, with Reach As a modern media organisation, we're much more than just news. And it takes a wide range of people and skills to serve diverse audiences, customers and communities like we do. We know everyone has their own story to tell, so we’ve built an environment where every background is respected and every day is a day to explore. We’ll help you build a career that works with your life, while giving you the space to create and grow. About this role Got a knack for LinkedIn ads and a head for data? Join us as a Digital Marketing Executive and turn scrolls into pipelines. You’ll build and optimise paid social (with a big focus on LinkedIn), curate sharp target account lists, and use Salesforce to identify, qualify and route high‑quality B2B prospects straight to Sales. You’ll team up across Marketing to deliver integrated campaigns that actually convert. It’s hands‑on, creative, and perfect for someone who loves working closely with Sales! You’ll report directly to the Associate Director of Marketing, Lead Generation and Automation. From awareness and consideration through to demand capture, you’ll plan, launch and optimise paid social. You’ll brief content and design, ship and iterate ad creatives and landing pages mapped to the customer journey, and you’ll keep a firm grip on large campaign budgets. You’ll also sync paid social with email nurturing, content, events and web to build cohesive multi‑channel campaigns. And you’ll partner with Marketing Ops to keep integrations between LinkedIn, marketing automation and Salesforce running smoothly and tracked end to end.

What you need to succeed:

We’re looking for applicants with experience running paid advertising campaigns, ideally across LinkedIn specifically. This is a hands-on role that balances creativity and analytics well, and so if you enjoy a bit of both, this is the ideal role for you. We want someone with strong writing skills, a knack for the details, and a genuine curiosity and creative approach to paid advertising campaigns. If you have practical experience with Salesforce for prospecting, list building, and reporting, you’ll be off to a great start here, but we are also open to teaching this and so it won’t be essential. It’s more important to us that you have a genuine interest to learn and grow within a collaborative marketing function. So, if you’re an analytical and creative person seeking to develop a digital marketing career long term, we’d love to hear from you. How we'll look after you
