About Journey Further

Founded five and a half years ago, Journey Further is a Performance and Brand agency that accelerates growth for leading brands and ambitious start-ups . Our 170+ team are located in Leeds (HQ), Manchester, London and Manhattan, NY.

We have been recognised as the fastest growing agency in Europe (AdWeek) and have just won Global Performance Agency of the Year (Campaign, May 2022). We were also crowned the number one medium sized agency to work for in 2022. We are a business where our people matter above all else and why less than 2% of our team leave each year.

Having grown 95% in 2021 our sights are now firmly set on our US expansion. We already partner with global brands that we want to service from the US and feel it’s the right time to launch our Clarity at Speed proposition to the US market.

Intensive planning has led us to a fresh direction and clear 5 year vision for the agency. We now need to find the founding US team to help make our vision a reality.

About the role

When we started Journey Further (2017) our vision was to create the Clarity at Speed performance agency that could take on the biggest and most respected agencies (with a disruptive approach) and win. We had no team, no clients and no proof that our approach would work. It did.

To make the US expansion a success, we need to go back to that start-up mentality and make decisions similar to those we made when we founded Journey Further. Only this time we have the strength of our existing team, our clients and our reputation to accelerate growth.

Purpose of the role

Reporting to our US CEO you will lead Journey Further Paid Media strategy and execution.

Areas of responsibility

  • Paid Media Strategy
  • Delivering on campaigns
  • Pitching to potential new clients
  • Recruitment – building out a team

Accountabilities of the role

Journey Further Paid Media strategy

You’ll work closely with our UK team to build out a paid media strategy that aligns to our proposition and values

  • Lead and adapt client paid search strategies to grow their PPC and paid social accounts
  • Leading the activation across Video, Display and Audio
  • Work directly with clients to help them understand how paid search performance and business data deliver strong results
  • Audit accounts, devise PPC strategies and pitch for new business
  • Test new ideas to drive account growth, reporting back to the team and your clients
  • Communicate detailed strategies, campaign plans and results with confidence
  • Meeting and maintaining a network of partners and providers to help deliver the best media plans possible for our clients
  • Collaborating with both internal and external creative teams to ensure all deliverables are to spec and make use of the platform/partner’s capabilities
  • Negotiating with suppliers to achieve preferential rates for our clients
  • Always go the extra mile, surprising and delighting your clients

It’s imperative that your approach aligns perfectly to our mission and values.

Mission = we challenge with care anything that limits performance

Values = open + together + decisive

Career development

Ultimately this will be working alongside US CEO and UK team to help further define approach/proposition and build out a team

New Business

Work with Head of Growth to put together decks and execute in pitches to win new business

Approach

Step 1 = Submit CV and cover letter to [email protected]

Step 2 = Paid Media Director (UK) and Jimmy to screen

Step 3 = Interview with US CEO

Step 4 = Final Stage – task based interview

Step 5 = Decision

Proposed salary

$150,000 – $170,000

D&I

Journey Further takes pride in creating an environment where everyone can be themselves. This starts with recruitment.

We pledge to make our roles as open as possible and to provide equal opportunities to everyone that is kind enough to give us their time. All recruitment decisions we take will be based solely on the positive skills and behaviors that applicants display and absolutely nothing else.

We do not discriminate based on any personal characteristic, we are a people first agency and we care about and celebrate individuals.

If something is important to you, it’s important to us. If you have a particular need during the application process or during your time at Journey Further, please let us know.
