Who We Are

At The Social Boutique, we’re all about helping eCommerce brands grow. We do it with smart strategy, performance-driven media buying, and creative that actually makes people stop and pay attention.

If you get excited by results, love great creative, and want to be part of scaling amazing brands, you’ll feel right at home with us.

Because we’re a boutique agency, you won’t be just another face in a big team. You’ll work closely with the founder, be part of the conversations that matter, and have the chance to bring bold ideas to life. If you’re looking for variety, ownership, and the satisfaction of seeing your work make a real difference, this is the place for you.

The Role

We’re looking for a Senior Performance Media Buyer / Digital Strategist to own paid media and drive measurable growth for our eCommerce clients.

This role is hands-on: you’ll plan, launch, and scale campaigns across Meta, Google, and TikTok with a sharp focus on efficiency and profitability. You’ll dive into numbers, and margins, optimising to hit client growth targets while guiding them on the bigger picture.

Beyond buying media, you’ll help shape full-funnel strategy, connecting acquisition with retention, creative testing with conversion frameworks, and campaigns with long-term profitability.

For the right person, this is also a pathway into leadership, working closely with the founder to shape how the agency scales.

Key Responsibilities

Plan, manage, and scale campaigns across Meta, Google, and TikTok with a profit-first approach.

Run data-driven optimisations to lower CAC, improve ROAS, and lift LTV.

Own daily, weekly, and monthly reporting across platforms, tying performance back to client revenue and profit.

Develop and test ad creative ideas, hooks, and messaging to unlock growth.

Build campaign structures and funnels designed for scalability, not just short-term wins.

Lead client strategy conversations, clearly translating numbers into growth actions.

Mentor juniors and contribute to building repeatable performance frameworks.

What You’ll Bring

3+ years’ hands-on media buying experience.

Advanced knowledge of Meta and Google Ads; TikTok and LinkedIn a plus.

Understanding of eCommerce growth levers: CAC, AOV, LTV, margins, conversion rates.

Proven track record of scaling accounts profitably

Ability to read Shopify and GA data and act decisively.

Strategic and creative thinker who thrives on testing and iteration.

Confident communicator who can lead client conversations.

Proactive, ambitious, and ready to step into a bigger role.

Why You’ll Love Working With Us

Performance & Growth

Extra time off to celebrate your birthday

Regular team lunches, quarterly dinners, and plenty of laughs along the way.
