CTRs, CPCs, CPAs, Smart this and Smart that. The world of PPC has become a complex beast with the platforms & features constantly changing. And let’s not forget our User who has become more demanding of a great User Experience over the last few years.

At Metis we’re not about ego or about showing how smart we are. And we’re certainly not about using crazy jargon to impress, overwhelm and confuse our clients. We simplify the complexities of PPC by stripping back all the fluff and creating campaigns that work. Our job is to ensure that our clients and their businesses thrive. We achieve this through generating great quality leads, online sales, and turning data into Actionable Insights that add value.

Does this appeal to you? We’re looking for our latest Rockstar to join the Metis Family. We love working with people who are true team players, who are constantly looking to learn and apply their learnings. At Metis we encourage new ideas and support them if they will help us achieve our BHAG (Big Hairy Audacious Goal).

METIS BHAG

• Make a positive impact in South Africa through helping 10,000 SMEs grow to reach their full potential
• We will achieve this through using our IP and continuous research and development to build great products for our clients. Currently these products are built around lead generation campaigns. However, we are in an ever-changing environment and change is as reliable as death & taxes.

Our No1 criteria when hiring someone to join our team is that we share the same values:

FAMILY – Home life is important here at Metis. We believe in family at home as well as at work. Family has your back, Family can have tough conversations, Family is where you can be your authentic self. 

TRANSPARENCY – if we eff up, we are open about it. We have nothing to hide.

AUTHENTICITY – we don’t fake, we are who we are. In our case we’re mostly sneaker loving foodies with a passion for numbers.

OAR – Be an OAR not a BED. Take Ownership, Be Accountable, Take Responsibility. We don’t believe in Blame, Excuses & Denial

INNOVATE – Constantly push boundaries through reading & testing ourselves. We’re not afraid to try and “fail”.

WISDOM – We are wise council to our clients. Always advise on what is in their best interest without trying to sound clever or to intimidate. We give our clients peace of mind – they have enough other things going on.
