Do you love turning complex ideas into clear, compelling copy? Do you get satisfaction from seeing your words drive clicks, leads, and conversations? Are you curious about clean energy, sustainability, and how businesses can do better?

We’re working with a fast-growing clean energy business that helps organisations across the UK generate their own power through commercial solar, battery storage, and smart energy solutions. Their mission is simple: help businesses become more self-sufficient, more sustainable, and more resilient — while accelerating the transition to clean energy.

• Producing and updating sales and marketing materials, briefing designers where needed
• Managing website content updates via CMS and ensuring messaging accuracy
• Tracking and reporting on content and campaign performance to inform optimisation
• Working closely with marketing colleagues and the sales team to support commercial objectives

What We’re Looking For

• A solid understanding of SEO and targeted content
• Experience executing campaigns and content calendars
• Comfortable using email marketing platforms and CMS systems
• Confident briefing designers and working with creative resources
• Highly organised, with strong attention to detail

• Comfortable tracking performance and reporting on results
• Commercially aware and motivated by supporting sales outcomes
