Our client in the UK is looking for an experienced Amazon PPC Consultant to help build and develop their Amazon Marketing Cloud (AMC) capability.

Working closely with senior leadership, you take end-to-end ownership of the AMC test plan — defining which audiences to prioritise, building them within AMC, activating them across SP and/or DSP, and leading testing, analysis and recommendations.

  • Develop AMC-driven insights to improve Amazon Ads and DSP performance.

Testing & Analysis

  • Activate AMC audiences across Sponsored Ads and/or DSP campaigns.
  • Design and execute structured audience and incrementality tests.
  • Measure test impact and recommend scalable next steps.
  • Translate complex data into clear commercial recommendations and actions.

Requirements

  • Strong hands-on experience with Amazon Marketing Cloud (AMC).
  • Strong understanding of Amazon PPC and/or Amazon DSP.
  • Experience building, activating and analysing audiences within AMC.
  • Experience running and evaluating AMC-led tests across SP and/or DSP campaigns.
  • Strong analytical capability with confidence interpreting complex datasets and identifying actionable insights.
  • Commercial mindset with the ability to connect data to performance outcomes.

At the heart of VirtuHire's mission is a passionate drive to bridge the gap between global businesses and the exceptional, yet often untapped, remote talent pool in South Africa. The company was born from a recognition of the significant challenges businesses face when trying to source skilled professionals remotely. Founders Nicholas and Brandon envisioned a streamlined, fully digital recruitment process designed to simplify hiring while delivering outstanding results. This vision is built on a foundation of core values: Integrity, Excellence, and Innovation. The team at VirtuHire upholds the highest standards of honesty and transparency in all their interactions, ensuring a trustworthy partnership with every client. They are relentlessly committed to delivering a superior service that consistently exceeds expectations, and they continuously seek out innovative solutions to enhance the hiring experience for both companies and candidates.

VirtuHire's culture is centered around making a tangible impact. They position themselves not just as a recruitment agency, but as a strategic partner in building and scaling world-class teams. Their process is meticulously designed to be both efficient and effective. It begins with a deep dive into a client's business needs and vision to ensure perfect alignment. From there, a targeted talent search is launched, sifting through thousands of candidates to present a curated shortlist of the top three within a week, complete with CVs and introductory videos. By handling the logistics of interview scheduling and offering seamless onboarding as an Employer of Record (EOR), VirtuHire manages payroll, compliance, and administrative tasks. This allows their clients to focus on their core growth activities, confident that the recruitment and management of their remote team are in expert hands. This holistic approach empowers businesses to build exceptional teams and transform their workforce with top-tier South African talent.
