Sandton, Gauteng, South Africa Future Famous Full time R200 000 - R450 000 per year

Dear, Google Ads Specialist

We're Future Famous, and we're looking for someone exceptional to lead our PPC department.

Someone who understands that paid advertising isn't just about spending money, but about generating real leads that convert into actual customers.

Someone who treats client budgets like their own.

Someone who absolutely loves what they do—who lives and breathes paid advertising with genuine passion.

Someone who knows the difference between vanity metrics and metrics that matter.

So now the question is, is that someone you?

Because if it is, we might just be about to offer you the role you've been waiting for.

WHO WE ARE

At Future Famous, we're not just another digital marketing agency in South Africa.

We're a team of performance marketing specialists with a singular focus: generating high-quality leads that become paying customers for our clients.

Since 2018, we've worked with over 125 businesses, managed more than R50 million in ad spend, and generated over R250 million in revenue for our clients.

How?

As a team member, you'll be working with this system that combines:

  • Google advertising (your specialty)
  • Strategic funnel building
  • Automated email marketing
  • Sales CRM integration
  • Conversion rate optimization

To make clients more money than they spend with us

This isn't about vanity metrics or flashy reports that mean nothing.

We're obsessed with real results.

We track everything and show our clients exactly how we've grown their business.

That's why we maintain a 4.5x average return on ad spend and a 12% lead-to-sale conversion rate.

Our mission is clear: Triple the sales of 100 companies by 2030.

If you join us as Head of PPC, you won't just be managing campaigns – you'll be a critical part of a team that's transforming businesses across South Africa.
