About the role
Help make the world more hospitable
The hospitality industry is uniquely human, and it deserves technology that’s just as inspiring as the people behind it. At Mews, we’re transforming the industry with a platform that helps hotels run smarter, move faster and create better guest experiences.
You’ll work with smart, curious people who care deeply about what they do. You’ll have autonomy and the trust to make good decisions and move quickly. And you’ll enjoy a real sense of purpose as you see the impact of what we’re building.
If you’re motivated by ownership, curiosity and meaningful impact, and are driven to deliver consistent high performance, you’ll feel at home here.
About the role
Let's get into the specifics. It’s impossible to capture every nuance of a role – especially at a rapidly growing company like Mews – but if we had to distil it into a job description (which we do because this is a job description), it would be this:
Mews runs paid search across multiple markets, and this role owns all of it. As Senior Paid Search Manager, you will set the end-to-end paid search strategy — from campaign planning and execution through to optimisation, testing, and performance reporting — with direct impact on acquisition, revenue, and efficiency targets.
This is a role for someone who has built and run paid search programs at scale. The paid search channel is a core acquisition driver at Mews, and the person in this role will set the strategic direction, define what good looks like across markets, and bring the rigour to back every move with data.
Mews operates in a genuinely complex paid search environment — multiple markets, multiple languages, and a commercial motion that spans SMB through enterprise. The work here is more varied than most paid search roles because of that complexity, and because you will be working directly with Data, Measurement, Finance, Brand, and Regional Marketing teams to tie search activity to real commercial priorities rather than managing a channel in isolation.
What you would do
Own paid search strategy end-to-end across all Mews markets — campaign planning, execution, optimisation, testing, and reporting.
Monitor and optimise performance against acquisition, revenue, ROI, and efficiency targets.
Partner with Product Marketing, Brand, Data, Finance, and Regional Marketing teams to align search activity with commercial priorities.
Identify growth opportunities through experimentation, automation, and new platform capabilities.
Manage agency and platform relationships where applicable and ensure best practice implementation.
Produce insights and recommendations that influence broader performance marketing strategy.
What you would bring
Deep expertise in Google Ads and Microsoft Ads — bidding strategies, attribution, conversion tracking, and web measurement are things you know well, not things you are still learning.
Strong quantitative skills: you are comfortable working with large datasets and interpreting them to make sound commercial judgements.
A clear track record of improving paid search performance against measurable targets — acquisition volume, CAC, ROI, or similar.
Experience with reporting and visualisation tools such as GA4, Looker, Tableau, or SQL.
A solid grasp of digital marketing measurement and experimentation methodologies.
You use AI as a real part of your workflow, not as a novelty.
Nice to have
Experience with automation, scripts, or AI-enabled optimisation techniques in a paid search context.

Life at Mews
We’re an equal opportunities employer. We value teams that reflect the diversity of the customers and communities we serve. Different perspectives make better ideas, stronger products and a more welcoming company.
We also believe transparency is important when deciding if you're the right fit. Mews is an ambitious, high-pressure environment of continuous learning and high standards. Success here requires resilience, adaptability and a willingness to solve difficult problems.
A few things that define how we work:
High autonomy means high responsibility. People are expected to take ownership and drive outcomes. There isn’t a detailed playbook for everything, and that’s part of what makes the work challenging – and rewarding.
Change is constant. We’re growing quickly and adapting as we scale. Teams, processes and priorities continue to evolve, and only people who stay curious and agile will thrive.
We’re remote-first, not relationship-free. Flexibility is core to how we work, but strong relationships still matter. Our teams are global, so we need expert collaborators and communicators to help us move forward together.
AI is an integral part of our processes. It’s not here to steal people’s jobs, but to amplify efficiency and productivity. We’re motivated to proactively use the technology to seek out better ways of working and share our findings with the rest of the company.
If there's anything we can do to support you during the application process, let us know.
We don't discriminate on the basis of race, religion, colour, nationality, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status, veteran status, disability or any other protected characteristic.
One final thing: don't hold back. If you don't meet 100% of the criteria in this job description but you're certain you could make a big impact, apply. Everyone should have equal access to opportunities, and we're committed to providing an inclusive experience.
If Mews sounds like the kind of environment where you'd thrive, we'd love to hear from you.
