THE OPPORTUNITY

We're recruiting on behalf of a fast-growing, dedicated analytics agency that helps clients weave data into the heart of their business strategies.

This is a newly created senior role, joining as an early team member in an exciting scale-up environment. You'll work directly alongside two of the most experienced Google Marketing Platform practitioners in the UK, helping to shape the agency's future while delivering excellence across a broad client base. If you're a technically strong analytics professional ready to step into a role with genuine influence, this is a rare opportunity.

• Work directly with client developers to design and implement dataLayer schemas
• Implement and configure GA4 across a variety of tag management systems, including Google Tag Manager and Tealium
• Own and manage client relationships, operating as a true partner rather than a supplier
• Stay ahead of the latest industry trends, developments and innovations in the web analytics and data space
• Take on line management responsibilities, leading and supporting a small delivery team

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

• A minimum of 3 years' hands-on experience with Google Analytics 4, operating at expert level — this is essential
• Strong working knowledge of Google Tag Manager — also essential
• Broader experience across the Google Marketing Platform, including tools such as BigQuery, Looker Studio, DV360 and SA360
• Proven track record delivering technically complex analytics projects across a range of industries
• Comfortable working with relevant coding languages including JavaScript, jQuery, CSS, Python or HTML
• Experience managing or mentoring a team
• A self-starter mindset — passionate, curious and driven to deliver excellence for clients
• Strong client relationship and communication skills

THE CULTURE

This is a team that puts clients first and moves fast. They're passionate, transparent and genuinely hungry to drive performance. As an early hire in a scale-up environment, your voice will be heard and your ideas embraced — this is a business that listens to its people and evolves quickly.

PACKAGE & BENEFITS

• Up to £70,000 basic salary depending on experience
• Hybrid working — 3 days in the Manchester office, 2 days from home
• A close-knit, family-feel team culture
• The chance to work with and learn from two of the UK's leading Google Marketing Platform experts
• Real influence over the agency's direction and growth
