Job description

We're looking for an experienced marketing professional to lead marketing and student recruitment activity for our Faculty of Business and Law.

In this role, you will develop and deliver marketing and recruitment plans that support the achievement of the Faculty's UK and international recruitment targets. You will lead a small team and work closely with academic and marketing colleagues to deliver marketing campaigns, manage the Faculty’s digital presence and coordinate recruitment events and outreach activity.

You will have experience of delivering successful marketing activity and using data and insight to drive performance. You will also be an effective people manager with excellent communication skills and the ability to build strong working relationships across the University.

Whilst there is a need to be in Portsmouth a few days a week, hybrid working is available for this role.

The interviews are currently anticipated to be held on 19th October 2026.
