Optimise existing campaigns for immediate gains while designing structures that enable long-term scalability.
Identify new growth levers through experimentation, testing, and creative channel expansion.

Demonstrate success in driving measurable ROI improvements and sustained customer growth.
Possess deep expertise across Meta, Google, YouTube, TikTok, programmatic, and affiliate channels.
Be a strategic thinker and analytical problem-solver, equally comfortable rolling up their sleeves to drive performance.
Bring strong technical understanding of attribution modelling, funnel optimisation, and A/B testing.
Be a confident, inclusive leader who builds high-performing teams and fosters a culture of experimentation, accountability, and excellence.
