But the ones who do help shape how we work.
We're just as selective with colleagues as we are with clients. If you think commercially, take ownership, and want to do work that actually matters, this is your place.
See open roles ↓The button pushing side of paid media is shrinking. Meta and Google automate more of it every year. What they can't automate is judgement: knowing what to test, what the results are telling you, and where the next pound should go.
That's the job here. On your accounts, you're the one making those judgement calls.
Kandidly is a paid media and creative agency in London, working with ecommerce and DTC brands turning over seven and eight figures. We've been going since 2018 and we're still small enough that you won't disappear into an org chart. You'll run your accounts day to day, work with your Account Director on strategy, and have an Account Executive reporting into you.
You'll work the commercial side as hard as the platforms: what a customer is worth, what a brand can afford to pay to win one and how fast that money needs to come back. Creative and media talk to each other every week, and you're the one who can look at a set of results and say why the work is winning.
The name is a play on "candidly", and we mean it. You'll get straight feedback on your work and you'll be expected to give it, to your Exec and to your clients, even when the news isn't what they wanted to hear.
We're picky about who we work with, clients and colleagues alike. Not everyone gets in.
An established Account Manager or Senior Account Manager with 4+ years of hands-on paid media experience and a strong grasp of both Paid Search and Paid Social campaign architecture, built on ecommerce accounts.
You'll pick up live client relationships in your first few weeks, so this is not a step-up role. If you're an Account Executive chasing your first AM title, this one isn't for you.
You are the day-to-day lead on your accounts, running Paid Search and Paid Social for ecommerce brands and owning the client relationship end to end, over email, on regular calls and with the occasional in person meetup.
Make yourself stand out. A lot of candidates who apply don't read the job description or know who Kandidly are or what we do. Don't be one of them. Tell us:
We look forward to hearing from you.

That's what you'll learn here.
Kandidly is a paid media and creative agency in London, working with consumer brands turning over seven and eight figures. We've been going since 2018 and we're still small enough that you won't disappear into an org chart. The people setting strategy on your accounts are on the same calls as you, and they'll show you how they got there.
You'll learn the business side as well as the platforms: what a customer is worth, what a brand can afford to pay to win one and how fast that money needs to come back. Creative and media talk to each other every week, so you'll see a number on Monday turn into a brief by Friday.
The name is a play on "candidly", and we mean it. Expect straight feedback on your work. Clients get the same, even when the news isn't what they wanted.
We're picky about who we work with, clients and colleagues alike. Not everyone gets in.
You'll join an account team, reporting to one of our Account Managers, and work on live client accounts across Meta, Google and TikTok. Day to day you'll build campaigns, work out why numbers moved, and join client calls and eventually deliver them. Your Account Manager sets the direction and reviews your work. The more you get right, the more you'll own.
Ads management is the easy part. The job is working out why a campaign worked and what that means for the client's business.
Up to a year of paid media experience, whether that's at an agency, in house, on an internship or running ads for your own project. If you haven't got that yet but can show us you've been teaching yourself, we still want to hear from you.

We're picky about who we work with, clients and colleagues alike. Not everyone gets in.
Two people fit this role. A strong Account Executive with around two years in the seat who is ready to run accounts of their own. Or an Account Manager with a year or more at that level who wants a different challenge and a client list they can actually move.
Either way, you'll need at least two years in paid media and a working grasp of both Paid Search and Paid Social. You'll lead your own client calls and carry full responsibility for your accounts from the start, with your Account Director there for the strategy and the hard calls, not to check your homework.
You are the day-to-day lead on your accounts, running Paid Search and Paid Social for ecommerce brands and owning the client relationship end to end, over email, on regular calls and with the occasional in person meetup.
