Descripción del empleo

Hi, we're Sayer Vincent - and we're not your typical audit firm!

We've been around since 1983, when three accountants committed to social justice recognised the need for specialist audit and advisory services for charities and social purpose organisations. Whilst we've grown and evolved over the years, our founding purpose remains at the heart of everything we do.

We help charities and social purpose organisations become more effective, accountable and sustainable-so they can create an even greater impact for their beneficiaries.

If you're passionate about supporting organisations that make a difference, you'll feel right at home at Sayer Vincent.

We believe our people are our greatest strength. We foster a supportive and collaborative culture where everyone is encouraged to learn, develop and grow. We value individuality, recognising the unique skills, perspectives and experiences each person brings to our firm.

About the role

We are looking for an organised, proactive and creative Marketing and Events Coordinator to join our team.

This is a varied role that sits at the heart of the firm, combining business development coordination, marketing and communications, events, project management and process improvement.

A significant part of the role is administrative. It involves managing and continually improving our new business enquiry process and working closely with Partners and Managers across the firm to coordinate opportunities, manage workflows, maintain accurate records and reporting, and help ensure that prospective clients receive an excellent experience.

At the same time, we're looking for someone who can bring fresh thinking to our external marketing. We want to continue evolving how we communicate with the charity and social purpose sector through engaging newsletters, social media content and digital campaigns. This role isn't just about delivery. We're looking for someone who enjoys generating ideas, spotting opportunities and finding innovative ways to increase engagement and strengthen our profile.

This role combines operational excellence with creativity. Approximately 40% of the role is dedicated to managing and continuously improving the firm's new business enquiry process. Alongside this, you will support marketing and communications activity, coordinate events, manage employee engagement initiatives through the social committee, and contribute to the firm's wider business development objectives.

You will work closely with Partners, Managers and colleagues across the firm, acting as a trusted coordinator who keeps projects moving, ensures processes run smoothly and helps identify opportunities for improvement.

If you are naturally organised, enjoy taking ownership and have a creative mindset, we'd love to hear from you.
