About the role
ACCOUNT EXECUTIVE - PAID MEDIA
Who We Are
We are Four, an international, independent agency powered by creativity and collaboration. Our 250 strong team spans media, creative and communications, working from hubs in London, Cardiff, Sheffield and the UAE.
Our award-winning media team sits at the heart of the business, combining smart strategy, specialist tools and strong client service to deliver campaigns that get noticed and get results.
We work across a range of sectors, but this role sits within our healthcare media team, supporting campaigns for some of the world’s leading prescription medicines, medical devices and OTC brands.
What This Role Is About
As an Account Executive in our Paid Media team, you will help major healthcare and pharmaceutical companies shape treatment landscapes by reaching the doctors who rely on accurate, relevant information to support patient care.
Your work will help ensure clinicians see and engage with information about medicines and treatments that can genuinely improve patient outcomes. You will be part of a team that takes accuracy, responsibility and impact seriously.
This role is ideal for someone with energy, strong attention to detail and initiative who wants to learn fast, take ownership early and build a meaningful career in healthcare marketing.
You will work closely with a senior member of the media team, supporting day to day activity across key accounts and gaining direct exposure to clients from the outset.
What You’ll Do
You will play a hands on role in the planning, activation and optimisation of paid media campaigns, ensuring everything runs smoothly and to a high standard.
Your responsibilities will include:
- Supporting the smooth running of client accounts alongside wider client team
- Assisting with planning and buying paid media campaigns across social and professional platforms
Over time, you will be trusted with greater responsibility and encouraged to contribute your own ideas and recommendations.
What We’re Looking For
We are looking for someone proactive, organised and detail oriented, with the confidence to take initiative and the energy to keep things moving.
You will ideally have:
- Some experience in paid media, paid social or digital marketing, either agency or in house
- Exposure to platforms such as LinkedIn Ads Manager, Meta Ads Manager or Google Ads
- Strong attention to detail and confidence working with numbers and data
- Clear written and verbal communication skills
- A positive, can-do attitude and willingness to learn
- The ability to manage a busy workload and prioritise effectively
- A genuine interest in marketing and the role of healthcare advertising globally
Experience in healthcare or pharmaceutical advertising is beneficial but not essential. Full training and support will be provided.

- Gain exposure to the full marketing mix across media, creative and communications
- Learn directly from experienced senior colleagues in a supportive environment
- Early responsibility and clear progression opportunities
- A sociable, inclusive and collaborative culture
- Hybrid working with a central East London office
- A defined career path with room to grow across the business
