We're looking for an experienced Senior Digital Marketing Manager / Senior Marketing Manager to lead a high-performing team of Performance Marketing Specialists and drive exceptional results across a diverse portfolio of client accounts.
This is not a hands-on execution role. We're seeking a strategic leader who can set direction, provide commercial oversight, mentor specialists, and ensure world-class delivery across multiple campaigns and accounts.
You'll be the trusted advisor for clients, the escalation point for the team, and the person ultimately accountable for maintaining quality, consistency, and performance standards across all marketing activity.
If you're an accomplished agency-side or multi-account marketing leader who thrives on coaching teams, building client relationships, and delivering strategic outcomes, we'd love to hear from you.
The Role
As Senior Digital Marketing Manager, you'll take ownership of a portfolio of client relationships while leading a team of digital and performance marketing specialists.
Your focus will be on strategy, leadership, quality assurance and commercial success—not day-to-day campaign execution.
Working closely with internal teams and senior stakeholders, you'll ensure marketing programmes are aligned to client objectives, delivering measurable business impact while maintaining exceptional service standards.
Key Responsibilities
- Lead, coach and develop a team of Performance Marketing Specialists across multiple client accounts.
- Set strategic direction and ensure marketing plans align with client growth objectives.
- Act as the primary senior contact for key client stakeholders.

- Review and oversee campaign performance, identifying opportunities for improvement and growth.
- Ensure all projects and deliverables are completed on time, within scope and to a high standard.

- Manage resource allocation, priorities and workload planning across the team.
- Lead client review meetings, strategic planning sessions and performance discussions.
- Support new business opportunities, client retention initiatives and account growth.
- Drive a culture of continuous improvement, collaboration and accountability.
- Monitor industry trends, platform updates and emerging digital marketing opportunities.
About You
You'll be a proven digital marketing leader with experience managing teams in fast-paced, multi-client environments.
You understand how successful performance marketing campaigns are built and optimised, but your strength lies in leadership, strategic thinking and client management rather than campaign execution.
Essential Experience
- Circa 3/5 yrs experience in a senior digital marketing, marketing management or performance marketing leadership role.
- Proven experience leading, mentoring and developing marketing teams.
- Strong client-facing experience with the ability to build trusted long-term relationships.
