Auckland, Auckland, New Zealand Spark Foundry NZ Full time NZ$80,000 - NZ$120,000 per year

Spark Foundry is looking for a Senior Search Specialist to join their team on a fixed term parental leave contract.

In this role, you would be managing search campaigns for a large international client (with multimillion dollar spend for search annually), setting the standard for search excellence within our agency. You'll play a pivotal part in maximising client search results through hands-on implementation and strategic recommendations. You'll nurture client relationships, ensuring seamless campaign execution and optimising performance to achieve measurable success. Additionally, you'll spearhead the development of proactive initiatives tailored to client needs, manage budgets, and mentor a high-performing team to foster growth and excellence. Ideally you have experience working on an eCommerce client in the past.

WHY SPARK FOUNDRY?

At Spark Foundry we design solutions for a modern world, we're built to be different; we have the spirit of a start-up and the soul of a power house.

Our purpose is to Create Work That Matters; to our clients, to our people and to society. That sounds nice, but to get to work that matters you need some key ingredients.

You need Builders and Creators. We call this our Brilliant Thinkers which means exceptional people and work. We are in it together; we back ourselves and each other. We are always moving forward, always seeking solutions and we are relentless caring and understand each other and the world around it.

This helps us tackle challenges through different disciplines and perspectives. You need to thrive on the belief that great ideas are only great if they work. It's not enough to be new, or cool, or interesting. Our solutions need to drive a business result. Everything else is vanity. You need to embrace both the art and the evidence. Right and left. Imagination and activation. Intelligence and technology. Big ideas, forensically measured.

All that while being a good human? Sound like you? Sound like where you'd like to be? We'd love to meet you.

TO BE SUCCESSFUL IN THIS ROLE

You will have excellent knowledge of paid search and relevant platforms, including Google Ads, Microsoft Ads & Google Analytics 4 (Merchant Center & Search Ads 360 would be great extras). You can set up and oversee Paid search Campaigns, identify new opportunities and communicate effectively with clients. It's vital that you can read, assess, and analyse data from a variety of sources & be able to communicate insights to clients through effective emails, presentations and reporting.

If you are a team player who enjoys working with others to deliver an impeccable experience for our clients as well as a spirit of curiosity, we would love to hear from you – apply now
