Role
Who you are
- Strong analytical skills and data driven capabilities with a passion for problem-solving
- Tech-savvy - ideally you've experimented with AI tools, scripts or web tracking and are eager to learn new tools and AI capabilities
- Comfortable using AI daily for prompting, QA, iteration, workflow automation, and analysis
- Solid understanding of data structures and confidence working with large spreadsheets; familiarity with XML feeds or SQL is a big plus
- Excellent communication skills - you can clearly explain complex performance concepts and confidently discuss KPIs and data with stakeholders; strong team players
- Self-driven and motivated to create impact toward shared goals
- Consistent, reliable, and comfortable taking full ownership of tasks from start to finish
- Fluency in English is required; German is a big plus
- Experience in performance marketing is preferred but not a must
What the job involves
- As a Junior Performance Marketing Manager / SEM, your work goes far beyond running standard Google Ads campaigns. You will operate in a tech-driven, cross-functional environment where engineers and data experts collaborate to build a cutting‑edge, automated performance marketing engine - pushing the limits of what traditional SEM can achieve
- You will take ownership in scaling and optimising our paid search and feed-based advertising setup, directly contributing to the next phase of growth for our talent marketplace
- Drive strong performance through effective SEM campaign setup, optimisation, and strategic scaling, always guided by KPIs such as ROAS, CPA, CVR, CPC and CTR
- Conduct keyword research, account structuring, bidding strategy adjustments, and continuous ad copy and landing page testing to improve conversion metrics and cost efficiency
- Contribute to our success by launching and evaluating A/B and multivariate tests with the goal of maximising ROAS and delivery performance
- Collaborate with senior colleagues and the Martech team to improve campaign automation, feed quality, and machine‑learning‑driven optimisation processes
- Actively support our AI‑native setup by leveraging LLMs, prompt workflows, and automation tools to enhance analysis, campaign creation, and optimisation scalability
- Bring numbers to life by supporting ongoing and ad hoc performance reporting, identifying trends, uncovering insights, and connecting them to business outcomes
- Support the implementation and maintenance of tracking requirements, ensuring the correct setup of conversion tracking, enhanced conversions, custom parameters, and feed signals
Our take
For a long time, recruitment has relied on the same outdated processes and job boards. HeyJobs leverages machine learning to modernise the sector with a self-learning algorithm that matches workers with jobs that fit their profile. It also optimises job adverts, saving employers money on their advertising spend.
HeyJobs is now used by enterprises such as Sky, PayPal, Allianz and Motel One among many others, and over 750,000 people have found jobs through the platform. Its success in breaking into a market dominated by large incumbents like TotalJobs and Indeed is a testament to the ability of its cutting edge product to match talent to opportunities.
The company has accrued impressive funding, which has enabled it to invest heavily in developing its AI and expanding into new markets. Despite success, in 2025 it had to cut jobs and shut locations - though this likely resulted from poor economic conditions rather than the company's missteps.
