Job description

Do you have a year or two of experience in a marketing or communications team? Or are you a graduate currently working in an office environment but keen to break into marketing? If you answered yes, please read on!

We are on the lookout for a proactive junior marketer to take the next step in their career working within a growing international business. The company operates across multiple sectors including healthcare, life sciences, and technology, with a strong focus on innovation and making a positive impact through its work.

As part of a small and busy communications team, you’ll contribute to external campaigns, media engagement, brand storytelling, and corporate initiatives that help build a clear and consistent voice across the organisation.

What you need to be considered:

Before we get into the exciting stuff, here are a few essentials to keep in mind before submitting your application:

• You will ideally have a relevant degree (e.g. marketing, communications, journalism, business, English, or similar)
• You’ll need either prior office experience or at least one year’s marketing or communications experience
• A UK driving licence is essential
• You’ll need to enjoy copywriting and be confident communicating clearly across all formats and to all levels of stakeholders

What you’ll be doing:

Working closely with the head of communications, you’ll support a mix of internal and external communications, including:

• Drafting and editing engaging copy for press releases, websites, social media, and internal materials
• Helping to develop content for external partnerships, including charities and local community initiatives
• Supporting the planning and execution of campaigns and media outreach
• Managing and updating social media content calendars (particularly LinkedIn and X)
• Working with stakeholders across the business to uncover stories and turn them into compelling narratives
• Helping to organise and promote events, exhibitions, and corporate activities
• This is a varied, hands-on role where no two days are quite the same. If you’re organised, curious, and confident, you’ll thrive here.

Who this would suit:

This would be a great opportunity for someone who’s:

• Interested in how large organisations communicate their purpose and impact
• Naturally proactive, organised, and not afraid to ask questions or suggest ideas
• Excited by the idea of storytelling at scale, and making a real difference through your work

Location:

There is the option for hybrid working, but you must be able to drive and live within a commutable distance of the office based in Bedford.

The location would suit candidates based in Bedfordshire and surrounding areas including Milton Keynes, Biggleswade, Sandy, St Neots, Luton, Ampthill, Shefford, Hitchin, and parts of North Hertfordshire.
