  • Optimise against core KPIs such as cost per lead, cost per acquisition, conversion rate and lead-quality indicators.
  • Manage prospecting and retargeting audiences, exclusions and funnel segmentation to improve efficiency.
  • Monitor performance daily and make timely, data-led changes to stabilise and improve results.
  • Run a structured programme of creative testing across angles, hooks and formats, and turn performance insights into clear briefs for creative resources.
  • Maintain strong tracking and attribution hygiene across events, Meta Pixel and Conversions API where applicable, UTMs and landing-page signals.
