Digital Performance Manager

Digital Performance Manager | Lead Growth for Tier-1 & Global Brands | Sydney Office

Pais Digital is one of Australia's most dynamic digital performance marketing and technology agencies. We deliver end-to-end, data-driven strategies and execution for some of Australia's most recognised and ambitious brands — including ASX-listed companies and international clients.

Over the past few years, we've grown rapidly and built a reputation for delivering commercial impact through smart strategy, technical excellence, and close collaboration with our clients.

At Pais Digital, culture is everything. We believe our best work happens when people enjoy coming to work — so we invest in a fun, inclusive, and collaborative environment. Expect a clear career progression path, best-in-class learning opportunities, and a lively social calendar.

Our Sydney HQ in Surry Hills is where the magic happens. We work face-to-face, because we know that bouncing ideas across the desk, solving challenges together, and celebrating wins in real-time is where performance and creativity thrive.

We're looking for a Digital Performance Manager to join our fast-paced performance team. Reporting to the Head of Performance, you'll partner with senior stakeholders, manage multi-channel campaigns, and lead client conversations to ensure strategies deliver measurable growth.

This is a role for someone who thrives in hands-on execution, is confident presenting insights and opportunities to clients, and loves collaborating with a highly skilled digital and technical team.

• Own and coordinate digital performance strategies for tier-1 and international clients.
• Lead client conversations, including WIPs and quarterly reviews, ensuring alignment on goals and opportunities.
• Balance short-term wins with long-term growth through roadmap planning and innovation.
• Build, manage, and optimise campaigns across paid search, paid social, display, programmatic, DOOH, and CTV.
• Manage the end-to-end delivery of services and identify new opportunities in collaboration with creative and digital teams.
• Contribute new ideas for creative, messaging, and testing to maximise impact.

• Analyse campaign performance data, extract actionable insights, and translate them into recommendations clients can understand.
• Drive continuous improvement through testing frameworks (A/B, multi-variant).
• Stay at the forefront of platform updates and industry trends, sharing knowledge with the wider team and clients.
• Work closely with digital, creative, and technical specialists to deliver integrated strategies.
• Mentor and support junior team members.
• Build strong relationships with stakeholders — from clients to platform partners.

• 4+ years' experience in performance marketing (agency or client-side).
• Hands-on campaign management experience across Google Ads, Microsoft (Bing), Meta, DV360, DOOH/CTV, TikTok, Pinterest, YouTube, and LinkedIn.
• A proven track record of improving performance outcomes and aligning campaigns to business goals.
• Strong data skills: comfortable working with large datasets and extracting commercial insights.
• Confidence presenting results, strategy, and opportunities to senior stakeholders.
• A collaborative mindset — you thrive working closely with teammates and clients in person.
• Bonus: experience with Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop, InDesign, Illustrator).
• If you've got a strong foundation, but want exposure to new channels like DOOH/CTV, we'll support you to grow fast.
• Impactful client portfolio – Work with a select number of high-profile clients, giving you the space to deliver deep results.
• Career progression – Clear growth pathways and mentoring from senior leaders.
• Learning & development – Platform certifications, technical training, and specialist up-skilling from day one.
• Vibrant culture – Team lunches, events, and a collaborative office vibe in the heart of Surry Hills.
• Balance – We plan workloads carefully so you can deliver results and enjoy life outside of work.
• Reward – Competitive salary, bonus scheme, and recognition for performance.
