Company Description

Depop is a peer-to-peer circular fashion marketplace where anyone can buy, sell and discover secondhand fashion. Our mission is simple: to make fashion circular by making secondhand as exciting and rewarding as buying new.

Founded in 2011, Depop’s diverse community has helped move resale into the mainstream, where buying secondhand is no longer an alternative, but how people of different ages now engage with fashion. Today, more than 56 million registered users come to Depop to find great value, express their own personal style and give clothes a longer life. We believe that everything you want already exists, and our role is to help people discover it.

Powered by a team of over 500 people, our company is headquartered in London, with offices in New York. In 2021, Depop became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Etsy - the global marketplace for unique and creative goods - and continues to operate as a standalone company.

We aim to create an inclusive environment where everyone is welcome, no matter who they are or where they’re from. Just as our platform connects people globally, we believe our workplace should reflect the diversity of the communities we serve. We thrive on the power of different perspectives and experiences, knowing they drive innovation and bring us closer to our users.

We’re proud to be an equal opportunity employer, providing employment opportunities without regard to age, ethnicity, religion or belief, gender identity, sex, sexual orientation, disability, pregnancy or maternity, marriage and civil partnership, or any other protected status. We’re continuously evolving our recruitment processes to ensure fairness and are open to accommodating any needs you might have.

AI Disclosure: We use AI tools (Google Gemini) to help our team source and review applications for roles with a high volume of applications. These tools assist our recruiters in identifying great talent but do not replace human decision-making. At Depop, every hiring decision is made by a human.

Work closely with our creative and insights teams to align messaging and targeting strategies with campaign and business objectives.
Support the creation of creative briefs, including briefing and coordinating UGC (user-generated content) assets for paid media campaigns.
Monitor campaign performance, flagging key trends and making data-led optimisations to maximise a range of KPIs.
Help maintain and improve relationships with platform and agency partners.
Stay up to date with platform updates, new targeting capabilities and emerging tools to keep our paid social programs ahead of the curve.

What we’re looking for:

Hands-on experience managing paid social activity on Meta, TikTok, Pinterest or similar platforms

Confident analysing campaign data and reporting on performance, with solid skills in Excel/Google Sheets and data visualisation tools.
