As our next Senior Performance Marketing Lead, you’ll own the strategy and execution of our paid acquisition channels, with a particular focus on PPC and app growth. This is a high-impact role for a commercially minded marketer who’s ready to shape how Checkatrade wins in a world of AI-driven search, dynamic pricing, and always-on discovery.
Forget long lists, here’s what you’ll actually spend your time on:

Spotting new ways to win, from smart bidding and feed optimisation to emerging AI-led formats.
Collaborating with product, analytics and commercial teams to align performance with business goals.
Making sure every campaign is measurable, optimised, and future-ready
It’s not about ticking every box. It’s about turning up curious, ready to crack on. You’ll do well here if you bring:
Experience (or eagerness to learn) in high-scale performance marketing, ideally across web and app.
A collaborative, roll-up-your-sleeves attitude.
Strong communication skills and a curiosity to solve problems.
Confidence with SA360, Performance Max, and AI-led optimisation, or the drive to master them fast.
We believe great work deserves great rewards. Here’s just a taste:
Competitive salary + annual bonus
Employee Share Programme
Health, well-being and learning support
Gym membership, Smart Tech Scheme and Cycle Scheme
Birthday/Special day leave
