Starling is a growing Dublin agency working with 10 to 14 Irish SMBs across Google Ads, Meta Ads, email, SEO, websites, social and LinkedIn.
The founder has spent the last eight months building the business around Claude and Codex. AI now does around 95% of the work.
The systems are built. The client list is growing. What’s next is the right person in the middle. You’ll take tasks off the board, run them through the AI, and make sure every email, creative and report is client-ready.
You don’t need to be a specialist or an engineer. You need marketing experience, a sharp eye and real interest in how AI is changing agency work.
Most marketers are still wondering what AI will do to their jobs. This is your chance to be the one running it.
The Role
What you’ll own:
Running and checking client work
Pick up tasks from the board and run them through the AI systems
Review deliverables before they go to the founder or the client
Check social creative for alignment, layout and text placement
Sense-check emails and client reports for accuracy and sense
Checking the VA's work
Review LinkedIn outreach and list-building output
Check Google Business Profile posts and optimisation work
Proactive client work
When the board is quiet, ask the AI what could improve each client's results or relationship, then action it
Set aside roughly two to three hours on quieter days to run through the client list this way
Campaign oversight (over time)
Take on running parts of Google Ads, Meta Ads, email and SEO work as trust builds
Check campaign figures and flag issues to the founder
Day-to-day coordination
Keep the board moving so nothing slips through the net
Flag anything that looks wrong rather than passing it on
The Person
Who we’re looking for:
Prior marketing experience, such as agency or in-house work across ads, email or social
A basic grounding in marketing, including funnels and common platforms, enough not to be put off by an unfamiliar tool
Strong attention to detail and a diligent approach to checking work
Comfortable using AI tools and interested in working in an AI-led environment
Proactive and able to work independently
Excellent written English
