Digital Marketeer – SEA expert

Own SEA and search performance.
You’re the go-to expert for Google Ads and paid search. You develop and manage search strategies, from keyword and audience research through campaign setup, optimisation and evaluation. You know your way around search and e-commerce, and you’re comfortable learning new tools and getting your hands dirty.

Look beyond the channel.
You understand how search fits into the wider customer journey. You connect paid search with other digital channels, content, creative, landing pages and conversion opportunities. You spot where improving one part of the journey can improve the whole experience.

Turn data into decisions.
You work with GA4, Search Console and platform data to understand what is happening, why it is happening and what we should do about it. You don't just report on performance; you use insights to challenge, optimise and improve it. Knowledge of other data tools is a plus.

Work with great people across the agency.
You collaborate closely with strategists, creatives, media, content, technology, product and client teams. You bring a performance perspective to the table early, help shape ideas and make sure they have the potential to deliver both business and audience impact.

Be a trusted digital partner to clients.
You can explain complex digital and performance topics in a way that makes sense to clients. You bring recommendations, and you're confident challenging a brief when the data or your expertise tells you there’s a better opportunity.

Stay ahead of change.
You’re curious about what’s next and understand what those changes mean for clients and their customers.

We’re looking for someone who combines strong digital thinking with real hands-on expertise in SEA .

• You have at least 5 years’ experience in digital or performance marketing, with substantial hands-on experience in SEA.
• Google Ads is firmly in your comfort zone. You understand keyword strategy, bidding, campaign structure, Shopping and Performance Max, and know how to optimise campaigns against meaningful business objectives.
• You understand digital channels and customer journeys, and know how they work together rather than seeing each channel in isolation.
• You’re comfortable working with data and analytics, and can turn performance insights into clear recommendations and action.
• You understand that performance isn't just about clicks or ROAS. You can connect digital investment to conversion, customer behaviour and broader business growth.
• You enjoy working with diverse teams, and are confident bringing your expertise into the conversation rather than waiting for a brief.
• You’re commercially minded and comfortable explaining your thinking, making recommendations and challenging assumptions when needed.
• You’re curious about new technologies, platforms and changing search behaviour, and enjoy figuring out what they mean for brands.
• You’re fluent in Dutch and English, and comfortable working in French.

You’ll join a team where digital performance isn’t an isolated discipline. At Brigada, you’ll work alongside people who specialise in brand, marketing, product, people, strategy, creativity, media and technology, giving you the opportunity to solve bigger problems than a search campaign alone.

We also offer:

• A competitive salary and flexible benefits plan, health and group insurance, internet allowance, meal vouchers, eco vouchers and an annual bonus.
• Internal and external training opportunities.
• The flexibility to work from home up to two days a week.
• You’ll be based at our office in Antwerp but can work occasionally from our offices in Ghent, Bruges and Brussels, with mobility options including a lease bike, electric company car with charging card or train pass.
• A Great Place to Work environment built on trust, autonomy and room to take initiative.
• Fresh soup and fruit every day.

Brigada was born when Fantastic, mortierbrigade, Onlyhumans, Today, Who Owns The Zebra and the B2B team of meetmarcel joined forces. The fight we picked? We want to get brands and people moving again. Not by pushing every button at once, but by pushing for a clear direction. To make sharp decisions, you need to see the bigger picture. That's why we bring together the four key domains of brand, product, people and marketing. We combine the service of an integrated agency with the expertise of all the different specialist agencies that brands would otherwise need – and need to keep aligned.
