At CloserStill, we strive to deliver the best. We’re on a mission to be the most dynamic B2B events and communities business in every market we serve, bringing people together to learn, connect and grow.

Operating across five regions, we power over 200 market-leading events, publications and brands across Business Technologies, Healthcare, Learning, HR & Education, and Future Transport & Infrastructure.

But what truly sets us apart is our people.

Our teams are diverse, driven, and united by a shared commitment to excellence. Rooted in our core values of ownership, empathy, teamwork, integrity, and determination, we empower every employee to grow, shape their own path and make a meaningful impact.

Joining CloserStill means being part of something bigger - not just building events, but creating opportunities, connections, and lasting value for the communities we serve.

WHO WE ARE LOOKING FOR:

Are you looking for the opportunity to take your marketing career to the next level? Are you creative, quick-thinking and outrageously organised? And are you ready to impress us so much that we can’t help but give you more responsibility?

If so, we want to hear from you.

CloserStill Media is a dynamic, fast-growing company behind some of the UK’s most successful trade shows. Our events continue to grow in sales, audience size, and industry influence — and this is no accident. We’re powered by a team of dedicated, talented professionals and award-winning marketers who make it all happen.

THE ROLE:

We’re looking for a Marketing Manager to help shape and deliver the marketing strategy for our co-located Learning Technologies & HR Technologies UK tradeshows in London.

Working closely with the Senior Marketing Manager, Head of Marketing, Group Event Director and wider team, you’ll play a pivotal role in promoting our events to delegates and exhibitors. You’ll be responsible for developing and executing effective marketing plans, managing creative processes, overseeing budgets, and ensuring every campaign delivers measurable results.

Your key responsibilities will include:

• Developing and implementing marketing strategies, positioning, and key messaging across the portfolio.
• Managing delegate and exhibitor promotion, pricing strategies, and performance reporting.
• Leading the creative process for digital and print materials, ensuring alignment with brand identity.
• Collaborating with sales to create campaigns that drive revenue growth and client retention.
• Building strategic audience development plans and leading messaging for customer communications.
• Working with partners to create campaigns and materials that support all revenue streams.
• Aligning content and marketing strategies in collaboration with the Head of Content.
• Reviewing KPIs, response rates, and attendee demographics to enhance campaign performance.
• Overseeing community-building and social media strategies to drive engagement.
• Managing data lists, CRM updates, and marketing budgets, including POs and finance reporting.
• Partnering with a PR agency to maintain and execute a detailed communication plan.
• Managing visitor registration, planning, and execution.

ABOUT YOU:

We’re looking for a confident, creative marketer with strong B2B experience — ideally within events, media or professional services — who can manage multiple projects, think strategically, and execute campaigns that deliver results.

You will have:

• 4–5 years of B2B marketing experience, ideally within events or media.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with a flair for crafting engaging copy.
• Experience creating and executing marketing plans and digital campaigns.
• Strong project management skills, able to deliver work on time and within budget.
• A solid understanding of CRM systems, CMS platforms and marketing tools (HubSpot and Salesforce preferred).
• Analytical skills with experience using tools like GA4, Power BI, and paid media platforms (Google Ads, LinkedIn, Meta).
• Knowledge of GDPR and compliance best practices.
• A commercial mindset and creative approach to sales-led marketing.
• The confidence to work in a fast-paced environment and present ideas to stakeholders.
• Excellent attention to detail and flexibility around key event dates.

What you can expect in return:

• The opportunity to hone your skills across all aspects of marketing and learn from industry experts.
• Genuine career progression in a rapidly growing company.
• A competitive salary and performance-related bonus.
• A dynamic and supportive workplace in West London, with regular social events and a vibrant culture.
