Head of Paid Search & AI Advertising (f/m/d) | 100% Remote

As an independent digital marketing agency with proprietary technology, we don’t view Paid Search in isolation, but as an integral part of modern growth strategies.

As Head of Paid Search & AI Advertising (f/m/d), you will take ownership of the strategic direction of our entire Paid Search practice while building our capabilities across emerging AI advertising channels.

You’ll operate in an international, remote-first environment with genuine strategic ownership and the opportunity to shape the future direction of our search and AI advertising offering. As our team includes both German-speaking and international colleagues, and we work closely with major corporations in Germany, the UK, and other international markets, full professional proficiency in both German and English is essential for this role.
