Job description

Fancy learning marketing from the people who actually make businesses grow?

Forget sitting in the corner doing admin and hoping someone notices you. At Chalkhill Blue, you'll be in the room from day one, working alongside a business growth consultancy that helps ambitious entrepreneurs and SMEs scale, grow and succeed, and picking up a real marketing qualification while you do it.

About us

We're a dynamic, award-winning consultancy combining deep commercial know-how with hands‑on marketing expertise. We work with founders, owners and leadership teams who are serious about growth, and we do things a little differently to most agencies. No corporate box‑ticking, no sitting on the sidelines. Just real work, real clients and real responsibility, right from the start.

Now we're looking for one bright, motivated person to join us on that journey.

Is this you?

You've just graduated (marketing degree not required) or finished your studies with strong results, and you're ready to build real experience rather than send out another hundred applications. You're curious about how businesses actually work, not just how to write a good caption. Maybe you grew up around a family business, did some work experience somewhere entrepreneurial, or you're simply fascinated by what makes companies tick.

You're organised, you've got sharp attention to detail, and you can write. You're not afraid of a fast‑moving, small‑team environment where things change quickly and no two days look the same.

If that sounds like you, keep reading.

What you'll actually be doing

• Helping bring our clients' marketing campaigns and digital strategy to life
• Supporting marketing campaign work for Chalkhill Blue's own clients, alongside our internal marketing
• Creating content for social media, blogs, newsletters and campaigns
• Building and running email marketing campaigns
• Supporting lead generation and nurture campaigns
• Keeping our website and landing pages fresh and up to date
• Digging into the numbers with tools like Google Analytics
• Helping plan and deliver events and webinars
• Managing customer data and supporting our CRM
• Getting stuck into the day‑to‑day of campaign coordination

What you'll gain

• A recognised marketing apprenticeship qualification through Pro Apprenticeships, choosing the pathway that suits you best: Multi‑Channel Marketer (Level 3), Marketing Executive (Level 4), or AI Content Creator (Level 3)
• 20% of your time protected for training as part of your apprenticeship
• Mentorship and coaching from experienced marketers, entrepreneurs and business growth specialists
• Hands‑on experience across a genuinely wide range of platforms, tools and campaign types
• Exposure to B2B strategy in a live commercial consultancy, not a classroom simulation
• The opportunity to join the team permanently once you've completed the programme

What we're looking for

• A recent graduate (any degree, marketing not required) or T‑Level / college leaver with strong academic results
• GCSEs in English and Maths at grade B/6 or above
• A genuine interest in marketing, digital content and how businesses grow
• A proactive, can‑do attitude to learning
• Excellent written communication and a sharp eye for detail
• A basic understanding of social media and marketing principles
• Comfortable in a small team where things move fast
• An interest in entrepreneurs, family businesses and ambitious SMEs
• A full driving licence and access to a car (public transport to our Brinkworth office is limited)

What's in it for you

• £18,000 per year + bonuses
• Half‑day Fridays, 1 pm finish
• 20 days holiday plus bank holidays
• Mentorship from serial entrepreneurs and growth specialists, not just a training manual
• Real responsibility from day one
• A genuine path to a permanent role once you've completed the apprenticeship
• A culture that backs curiosity, initiative and getting stuck in

Ready to take your first real step into marketing, with a team that lives and breathes business growth?
