Job description

Location: Salford Quays, Greater Manchester

About Marick

Marick is an events and creative agency that helps organisations communicate, engage and inspire through exceptional live events, virtual experiences, video production, graphic design and strategic communications.

Since 2007, we've built an outstanding reputation for delivering high-quality work for clients across the nuclear, energy, engineering, aerospace, manufacturing, education and public sectors.

Our integrated approach combines creativity, communications and event delivery under one roof, enabling us to become a trusted extension of our clients' teams. Whether delivering a major conference, producing engaging video content or developing a communications campaign, we pride ourselves on creating work that makes a real difference.

The Opportunity

We're looking for a talented and experienced Marketing Communications Manager to join our team in Salford Quays.

This is a varied, hands-on role for someone with a strong background in B2B marketing, marketing communications or corporate communications, who enjoys combining creative thinking with practical delivery.

You’ll work with the company directors to develop and deliver Marick's own marketing, raising our profile, showcasing our work and supporting the Directors with marketing and communications activity that helps generate new business opportunities.

You’ll also work directly with our clients, managing and delivering a diverse range of marketing and communications projects, from integrated campaigns to digital and print content, thought leadership, and event marketing.

Working closely with our in‑house design, video and events teams, you’ll turn ideas and briefs into engaging, high‑quality content and campaigns.

You’ll manage and support our Marketing Coordinator, helping to develop their skills while ensuring activity is well planned, coordinated and delivered to a consistently high standard.

This is an ideal opportunity for someone who enjoys taking ownership, building strong client relationships and getting involved in the detail. You’ll need to be as comfortable developing a communications plan as you are writing compelling copy, briefing a designer or managing a client project.

This isn’t a sales role. We're looking for someone who understands how effective marketing communications can build reputation, strengthen relationships and create opportunities for business growth.

Key responsibilities

• Develop and deliver Marick's marketing and communications plan, building brand awareness, reputation and visibility across our key sectors.
• Manage Marick's marketing activity across digital channels, social media, website, email campaigns, PR and other promotional opportunities.
• Create engaging content that showcases Marick's expertise, people and projects, including case studies, articles, thought leadership and marketing collateral.
• Support the Directors with business development activity, including credentials presentations, proposals, tender submissions, research and targeted marketing campaigns.
• Manage and deliver B2B marketing and corporate communications projects for clients, from initial brief and planning through to delivery and evaluation.
• Develop marketing strategies, communications plans, campaign concepts, key messages and engaging content for a range of internal and external audiences.
• Deliver client communications activity across digital, social media, employee communications, stakeholder engagement, event marketing and other relevant channels.
• Build strong client relationships, providing practical marketing and communications advice and identifying opportunities to add value.
• Manage project budgets, schedules and deliverables, coordinating with Marick's design, video and events teams to ensure high‑quality work is delivered on time.
• Line manage and develop the Marketing Coordinator, overseeing workloads, priorities and the quality of marketing output.
• Monitor and evaluate marketing and campaign performance, providing reports, insights and recommendations for improvement.

What We're Looking For

We're looking for a confident, creative and highly organised marketing professional who can combine strong communications skills with excellent project management and a genuine enthusiasm for delivering great work.

You'll be a natural communicator and a particularly strong writer, able to take complex information and turn it into clear, engaging and audience‑appropriate content.

You'll understand the different challenges of B2B and corporate communications and know how to adapt your approach for different organisations, stakeholders and audiences.

You'll be proactive, resourceful and comfortable taking responsibility, while recognising the importance of collaboration in a busy creative agency.

Above all, you'll enjoy the variety that comes with working across different clients, sectors and projects, and take pride in producing work that really makes a difference.

• At least 4 years' relevant experience in B2B marketing, marketing communications or corporate communications.
• Experience developing and delivering marketing and communications plans and campaigns.
• Exceptional copywriting, editing and proofreading skills, with the ability to write confidently for different audiences, channels and purposes.
• Experience managing digital marketing activity, including social media, websites, email marketing and content campaigns.
• Excellent project management and organisational skills, with the ability to manage multiple projects and deadlines.
• Confident interpersonal and client relationship management skills, including experience working with senior stakeholders.
• Experience working with creative teams or external suppliers to develop marketing and communications materials.
• Strong attention to detail and a commitment to delivering high‑quality work.
• Good commercial awareness and an understanding of how marketing supports wider business objectives.
• Confident using Microsoft Office, particularly PowerPoint, Word and Excel.
• Experience using Mailchimp or other email marketing platforms.
• Familiarity with LinkedIn Campaign Manager and Meta advertising
• Full UK driving licence and own transport desirable/
