About the role

  • Paid Media Graduate Assistant role at Australia's leading ecommerce digital agency. Opportunity for hands-on experience in digital marketing with a structured growth path.

Responsibilities

  • Support the setup, trafficking, and QA of paid media campaigns across Google Ads, Microsoft Ads, Meta, programmatic DSPs, and affiliate networks.
  • Assist in day-to-day campaign management: budget pacing, bid adjustments, keyword/audience expansion, negative keyword management, and ad copy testing.
  • Monitor daily campaign performance and flag anomalies, feed issues, or tracking discrepancies to your manager promptly.
  • Pull and format weekly and monthly performance reports using GA4, Looker Studio, and platform-native dashboards; translate numbers into clear commentary.
  • Conduct regular competitor and keyword research to surface new opportunities.
  • Maintain accurate campaign change logs, budget trackers, and internal documentation in line with team SOPs.
  • Contribute to A/B test briefs and assist in reading out test results to the team.
  • Collaborate cross-functionally with SEO, Analytics, and Creative teams to ensure campaigns are well-supported and integrated.

Requirements

  • A recent graduate (2023–2025) with a degree in Marketing, Commerce, Business, Data Science, or a related field.
  • Some prior exposure to digital marketing through internships, university projects, or personal campaigns is a plus - but not required.
  • Analytical mindset - comfortable working with data, spotting trends, and drawing conclusions from numbers.
  • Comfortable using AI tools to improve productivity and output quality — whether that's ad copy ideation, audience research, campaign analysis, or automating repetitive tasks. Equally important is knowing when and how to apply human judgment: you'll understand what AI gets wrong, how to validate its outputs, and how to prompt effectively to get the best results. Curious, proactive, and always looking for smarter ways to work.
  • Strong attention to detail; you notice when things don’t look right and do something about it.
  • Clear written and verbal communicator who can explain data simply and confidently.
  • Proficient in Microsoft Excel or Google Sheets (pivot tables, VLOOKUPs, basic formulas).
  • Highly organised with the ability to manage multiple tasks and deadlines simultaneously.
  • Proactive self-starter who asks questions, takes ownership, and follows through.
  • A genuine interest in ecommerce, retail, and how paid media drives commercial outcomes.
  • Google Ads or Meta Blueprint certifications (or studying toward them) are a plus.

Benefits

  • 5 weeks of annual leave
  • hybrid and flexible working options
  • three month’s paid parental leave
  • competitive salary and potential stock options
  • training and development plan tailored to your goals
  • work with some of Australia’s most recognised brands across beauty, fashion, home, and lifestyle
