Job description

Marketing & Communications Executive

Professional Membership Organisation | London / Hybrid | Permanent

Are you a confident marketing and communications professional who loves writing, creating content and turning ideas into engaging communications?

Would you enjoy a role where no two weeks are quite the same - working across email, social media, digital content, campaigns, events, PR, podcasts and video?

Our client is a well-established professional membership organisation within the financial and specialist risk services sector, looking for a Marketing & Communications Executive to join its small, collaborative team.

This is an opportunity to take real ownership from day one, work closely with senior stakeholders and build your experience across a broad marketing and communications remit. You'll work with colleagues across the organisation, its members and the wider industry, giving you the opportunity to build valuable relationships and develop a strong understanding of a specialist, internationally recognised market.

With a supportive team and plenty of variety, this is a role where you can develop your skills, bring ideas to the table and grow your career.

What will you be doing?

• Writing and editing bulletins, newsletters, articles, event invitations, press releases, reports, thought leadership and campaign content.
• Managing email marketing and CRM communications, ensuring the right messages reach the right audiences.
• Creating and coordinating the LinkedIn content calendar, turning organisational activity and industry developments into engaging social content.
• Keeping the website up to date and working with the external website agency on content and improvements.
• Planning communications for reports, campaigns and events, coordinating contributors, approvals and deadlines through to delivery.
• Supporting PR and media activity, working with an external PR agency and helping identify opportunities to raise the organisation's profile.
• Supporting podcasts and video content, from coordinating contributors through to production.
• Using Canva and other design tools to create social media graphics, invitations and other visual content.
• Monitoring engagement across email, social media and the website, helping produce quarterly reports and using insight to improve future communications.
• Working with colleagues across the business to identify opportunities to engage members and bring their work to life.
• Taking ownership of individual projects and confidently managing stakeholders, deadlines and approvals.

This is a role where you'll be encouraged to bring ideas to the table, not simply execute instructions.

What are we looking for?

We're looking for someone who enjoys working across different areas of marketing and communications and is keen to continue developing their skills and experience.

• Strong copywriting, editing and proofreading skills, with an excellent eye for detail.
• Hands-on experience across areas such as content, email marketing and social media.
• Experience using a CRM or email marketing platform.
• The confidence to adapt your writing for different audiences and turn complex information into clear, engaging content.
• Basic design skills and experience using Canva or a similar tool.
• Experience coordinating campaigns, projects, contributors and approvals.
• The ability to manage competing priorities and deliver high-quality work to deadlines.
• Confidence working with a wide range of stakeholders, including senior colleagues.
• Curiosity, initiative and a willingness to learn.
• Experience within insurance, financial services or a membership organisation would be advantageous, as would experience with WordPress, Google Analytics, PR, events, podcasts or video.
• An English degree or similar qualification would be desirable, but we're particularly interested in the quality of your writing and your practical marketing and communications experience.

Why join?

This is an exciting opportunity to join a respected and well-established organisation operating at the heart of a specialist professional services market.

As part of a small team, you'll have visibility and access that can be difficult to find in a larger organisation. You'll work with senior stakeholders, build relationships across the industry and have the opportunity to take ownership of projects rather than being one small part of a much larger function.

You'll also have the opportunity to develop across multiple areas of marketing and communications, supported by a manager who is committed to helping people grow.

If you're ambitious, curious and enjoy variety, this is a role where you can make a real contribution while building your career.
