Performance Marketing Executive (Google Ads)

Mumbai - Permanent

At No Fluff, we do not believe in surface-level marketing. We are looking for a Performance Marketing Executive who is eager to learn, execute, and grow in paid media on Google Ads.

This is a full-time, in-office position at our Mumbai workspace and is ideal for someone who is hands-on in Google Ads and GA4, comfortable working with data, and wants to deepen their craft in keyword strategy, bidding, and funnel-based optimisation.

What You Will Be Doing

Campaign Execution and Support

  • Plan, launch, and manage paid campaigns on Google Ads across Search, Display and YouTube,  with exposure to Shopping, Performance Max, and Demand Gen.

  • Contribute to hard business outcomes: lead generation, D2C outreach, website traffic, conversions, and brand lift.

  • Build precise targeting strategies using keyword research, search intent, custom audiences, in-market and affinity segments, remarketing lists, and customer match.

  • Structure campaigns across the full funnel (Awareness → Consideration → Conversion → Retention).

  • Apply advanced bidding strategies: Manual CPC, Smart Bidding, Target CPA, Max Conversions, etc.

  • Own keyword strategy end-to-end: research, match-type planning, negative keyword lists, search term mining, and Quality Score optimisation.

  • Use Google Auction Insights and SEMrush (or similar) to track competitor activity and surface insights.

  • Work closely with creatives to deliver responsive search ads, display creatives, YouTube video ads, and landing pages - no fluff, no fillers.

Performance Tracking and Optimisation

  • Monitor and optimise campaigns daily to hit sharp KPIs: CPL, CPA, ROAS, CTR, Conversion Rate, and Quality Score.

  • Run structured A/B tests on ad copy, headlines, RSA assets, landing pages, bidding strategies, and audience segments using Google Ads Experiments and Drafts.

  • Build and maintain clear performance dashboards using GA4, Google Ads reporting and internal tools.

  • Stay current with Google Ads platform updates, algorithm shifts, and new features (PMax, Demand Gen, AI-powered bidding).

  • Manage Google Ads budgets with a focus on efficiency, pacing, and returns.

Collaboration and Learning

  • Brief the creative and content teams on ad copy, headlines, RSA assets, and video scripts aligned with Google Ads best practices.

  • Work closely with senior performance marketers to understand scaling strategy, account structure, and optimisation logic.

  • Participate in internal reviews, learning sessions, and performance discussions to sharpen craft and contribute ideas.

What We Are Looking For

Essential Experience

  • 1 - 2 years managing performance campaigns across Google Ads.

  • Documented success with hard KPIs - e.g., CPL under ₹300, or ROAS above 4x on D2C accounts.

  • Strong command of Google Ads (Search, Display, YouTube).

  • Comfortable with GA4, Google Tag Manager basics, and UTM tagging.

  • Experience contributing to campaigns with monthly budgets of ₹1L+ with high accountability.

  • Clear communicator who can present data, insights, and decisions to internal teams without fluff.

  • Sharp analytical thinking: can cut through data and identify what matters.

  • Degree in Marketing, Business, Digital Media, or similar.

  • Certification in Google Ads is a strong plus.

If you're here to grow, own your outcomes, and push yourself, this is the right place. If not, skip this one.

The Right Mindset

  • Data-driven decision maker who can translate analytics into actionable insights

  • Detail-oriented professional who thrives in a fast-paced, results-focused environment

  • Excellent communicator who can present complex PPC concepts to diverse audiences

  • Self-motivated learner who stays current with industry changes and best practices

  • Collaborative team player who enjoys mentoring junior team members
