Join the team setting the standard in Google Ads Marketing.

You might be finishing university and looking for the right place to start your career, or you might already have a couple of years under your belt and be ready to learn faster, go deeper and work on bigger accounts.

Either way, if you're clever, commercially minded, ambitious and genuinely curious about digital marketing, we want to hear from you.

At zib digital, you'll learn alongside New Zealand's most talented and experienced Google Ads specialists, working on real campaigns for established businesses across New Zealand.

This isn't a role where you'll spend six months watching from the sidelines.

You'll be at work. Learning. Testing. Optimising. And getting great results fast.

About zib digital

Marketing powered by people. Accelerated by AI.

zib digital is a specialist digital marketing agency helping New Zealand businesses grow. We work across a huge range of industries, combining experienced people, smart strategy, advanced technology and some seriously good digital specialists.

We're not interested in vanity metrics or making reports look impressive, we want marketing to make a commercial difference. And Google Ads is a big part of how we do that.

What you'll actually be doing

You'll join our Google Ads team and learn how to build, manage and improve campaigns that generate real business results.

Depending on your experience, that will include:

• Building and managing Google Ads campaigns across Search, Performance Max, Display and more
• Analysing performance and working out what the data is actually telling you
• Optimising campaigns to improve leads, sales and return on investment
• Researching keywords, audiences, competitors and new opportunities
• Testing new ideas, creative approaches and campaign structures
• Using AI and automation to work smarter and move faster
• Working alongside our Account Managers to understand the bigger client strategy
• Learning from experienced specialists who will challenge you to keep improving

As your skills grow, so will the size of the accounts, the complexity of the work and the responsibility you take on.

Who we're looking for

Experience is great. potential matters just as much.

You could be a graduate with no agency experience at all, or already have a year or two working in digital.

What matters most is how you think. You'll probably be someone who:

• Is naturally analytical and comfortable with numbers
• Loves figuring out why something worked, or why it didn't
• Is curious and asks lots of questions
• Picks up new technology quickly
• Has exceptional attention to detail
• Takes ownership rather than waiting to be told what to do
• Wants feedback and genuinely wants to improve
• Understands that great marketing is ultimately about growing a business

If you've already worked with Google Ads, fantastic. If you haven't, but you're bright, ambitious and ready to learn, don't let that stop you applying.

Why zib digital?

You'll be working with specialists who live and breathe performance marketing, working across significant advertising budgets, different industries and constantly changing platforms.

You'll get exposure to more campaigns, more data, more businesses and more real-world problems than you could learn from a course. And we're moving quickly. AI is changing digital marketing at an incredible pace.

If you're hungry to learn, we'll give you plenty to learn from.
