No two days are the same - and that's just how you like it.

• Keep projects on track by wrangling timelines, deliverables, and budgets - you're the team's go‑to organiser.
• Turn data into stories by preparing fun, insightful reports and presentations on brand performance and campaign results.
• Work alongside our Senior SEO & PPC Manager to ensure we are opitimising organic and paid search in the most effective ways, and deputising for them where necessary.
• Take charge of essentials: schedule meetings, organise assets, and keep our project docs in tip‑top shape.
• Collaborate with Commercial, Product, Digital, and Communications teams - you'll get to know everyone!
• Spot trends, keep an eye on competitors, and share your discoveries to help shape our next big idea.
• Help manage our agency and supplier relationships, making sure everything's delivered on time and to a high standard.

• Awareness of digital marketing, social media trends, and how brands show up online.
• Understanding of the creative process and how to brief designers, copywriters, or agencies.
• Awareness of the telecoms, utilities, or other consumer-facing sectors is a plus.

Skills

• Creative thinker with a keen eye for detail, design, and what makes a brand stand out.
• Super‑organised and able to juggle multiple tasks, projects, and deadlines at once.
• Brilliant written and verbal communicator, able to adapt your style for different audiences.
• Confident using Microsoft Office (PowerPoint, Excel, Word); bonus points for experience with creative tools or analytics dashboards.
• Comfortable pulling together reports, presentations, and campaign summaries that are as clear as they are engaging.
• Eager to learn, not afraid to ask questions, and always looking for ways to improve how we do things.
• Able to build relationships and work with people.

Experience

• Some experience in marketing, brand, or communications (internships, uni projects, or entry‑level roles all count!).
• Experience supporting projects or campaigns, ideally in a consumer-facing environment.
• Exposure to working with agencies, suppliers, or cross‑functional teams is a plus.
• Experience managing or updating content on websites or social media is desirable.

Behaviours / Values Fit
