Mukesh Karthick

Curious, analytical and hands-on digital marketer with practical experience running paid campaigns across Meta, TikTok and Google for a multi-venue consumer business. I enjoy understanding why campaigns perform the way they do and use data to guide decisions, optimisation and creative direction. Currently work across campaign setup, QA, audience targeting, budget pacing, creative testing and performance reporting, while collaborating with managers and external partners across multiple venues.

Quick to learn new tools, comfortable managing competing priorities and looking to deepen my paid-social expertise within a collaborative agency environment.
