Job Description:

Head of Ad Operations – High Growth, Series A start-up

⚠️We are looking for someone from an agency background with strong social experience⚠️

This is not a traditional Ad Ops role and if you are up for a challenge you should definitely read on…

This is a chance to build something from scratch inside a high-growth SaaS platform that’s reinventing how brands scale advocacy, community and creator-led growth.

You’ll take the rigour of performance marketing (A/B testing, optimisation, experimentation, metrics) and apply it to advocacy programmes turning something historically subjective into something systematic, measurable and commercially powerful.

Think: running advocacy programmes the way elite performance teams run paid campaigns.

What you’ll be doing

  • Build a brand-new Programme Operations function from the ground up
  • Design and run continuous testing frameworks across advocacy mechanics, rewards, gamification and engagement
  • Own A/B testing, optimisation and experimentation at scale
  • Translate product features into high-performing, testable programmes
  • Create repeatable, scalable programme architectures that drive renewal and commercial outcomes
  • Use data to spot patterns, bottlenecks and opportunities — then act fast

🧪 This role is for you if…

  • You have 5+ years in Ad Ops, Performance Marketing or Campaign Operations
  • You obsess over test design, statistical significance and clean data
  • You’ve turned messy execution into repeatable, scalable systems
  • You instinctively ask: “How do we test that?”

Bonus points if you’ve worked in creator, influencer, UGC or advocacy-led models

Why this is exciting

  • Greenfield role with real ownership
  • Direct impact on product, performance and commercial outcomes
  • Backed by serious funding and scaling fast
  • Working with household-name brands
  • High trust, high standards, low ego culture

If you’re a performance-minded operator who loves turning complexity into clarity and data into impact this one is special.
