This is a great opportunity for either a recent graduate with 1-2 years marketing experience, or a marketeer who would like a hands-on role with a digital marketing focus.

A typical day
Your morning might be spent collating content for a marketing brochure, working on a video campaign or posting content on one of the company’s social media channels.
You might also be doing research to work out how we can increase our social media following. Or identifying the most influential thought leaders in a new market and collating information on trending topics to write about.
The afternoon might involve meetings to update the service leads on their particular marketing campaign progress and receiving briefs on a whole range of marketing initiatives.
In any week there will be multiple projects happening, but you will be guided all the way by the Head of Marketing.
