Location: London Bishops Square – 2 days in the office / 3 days working from home

Salary: up to £50k DOE

We are in search of a resilient, collaborative, and professional individual to join our in-house marketing team.

This role requires experience in marketing, someone who is familiar with delivering end-to-end marketing campaigns, copy writing, creating campaign proposals, and delegating workload(s). This role also involves working with external printers and merchandisers for materials that our consultants use for their clients and candidates; it would be fantastic if you have experience in supplier management for this part of the role.

We would want to see genuine enthusiasm for content creation. Any content or portfolio examples will be expected. Have you ever completed a brochure where you can demonstrate your writing skills, or can you share some assets from a campaign you ran? 

We value the potential to adapt and grow, so we don’t expect you to have worked in-house marketing for a recruitment agency but someone who can pick up the landscape and do their research before their interview is welcomed!

We expect some design skills such as Canva and/or Adobe but experience for specific tech stacks is not mandatory. But we welcome your eagerness to embrace new technologies and dedication to learning new skills that amplify your job performance.

The Team

Our team brings together colleagues across a wide variety of marketing disciplines to create a 360-degree department. From seasoned marketeers with over a decade of experience to fresh graduates, each member brings a unique set of skills and valuable viewpoint.

You will be supporting and delegating to our Marketing Assistant, who will require your executive decision-making, experience and advise to guide them through their marketing journey.

Reporting to our Marketing Director, Emma, you will be working with her to deliver on the quarterly and monthly plans, adhering to our overall annual strategy. As the role evolves, you will be delivering on all marketing materials, campaigns, and ideas, taking them from concepts to execution and assigning responsibility to the team’s Marketing Assistant where necessary.

You will have a keen eye for detail and editing capabilities. Whilst the Marketing Assistant will be refreshing content, writing and assisting you in your daily responsibilities, you have the core responsibility of managing all incoming requests from the branch network and ensuring our internal stakeholders are advised with the best and top notch marketing recommendations.

• Copywriting – craft compelling and concise copy for marketing materials, ensuring brand consistency and effective messaging. From email copy and flyer text to social media posts and infographics, you’ll be a passionate writer who understands the value a well-written tag line offers. Content will be both internally and externally focused, offering a variety of audiences to speak to and a wide variety of projects to get involved with. Most of the content will be more short form, but it would be advantageous if you are someone who enjoys writing.
• Team Project Support – we are a diverse team with lots of moving parts and we work with many third-party suppliers. As a Senior Marketing Executive you will supply quotes, work across teams to gather information or feedback and ensure our internal systems are kept up to date and organised. A keen eye for detail and organised mindset will set you up for success.
• Content Calendar – maintaining the timelines for the editorial calendar across Adecco and Office Angels, ensuring timely delivery and alignment with marketing campaigns.
• Collaboration – work closely with the wider marketing team, including Social Media, Graphic Design, Brand Marketing, Digital, and Research and Insights to ensure you are up to date on what others are doing, and that the successes of the full team can be leveraged to make improvements.
• Strategy Development – whilst you will be reporting into Marketing Director, you will be a point of contact to deliver on project requests from the business. You will play a part in formulating, contributing, and executing strategies aligned with brand objectives and target audience interests, and working with the wider team to deliver on specific projects. Experience producing cross-channel campaigns and an eye for how to best optimise campaign performance against agreed KPIs will set you up well to present new campaign proposals to senior stakeholders and challenge the status quo.
• Staying updated – You will be expected to keep abreast of industry trends, content marketing best practices and emerging technologies to continuously improve content quality and relevance, alongside your personal development within the team.

• Your willingness to evolve and acquire new skills will be key in excelling within this role.
• We are looking for someone with 3-5 years’ experience in generalist marketing, social media (campaign experience), or written content creation. This is not a digital marketing role.
• We would love someone who sees beyond traditional marketing, someone who understands and thinks about the nuances of platforms and content creation but can translate that into the existing brand guidelines.
• Collaboration is huge in this role, so you will be someone who can excel in cross-functional teamwork, seamlessly partnering with diverse teams – from creative minds to analytical/sales experts – to bring your campaigns to life.
• This is a stakeholder facing role, so you will be working with the Marketing Director and high level internal stakeholders to present, sometimes offering your expertise contrary to what a client may want.
• There is a lot of back and forth editing in this role, so you must be adaptable. You’re quick to embrace new ideas, suggestions and have the humility to question and ask for help.
• Equally, you need to be resilient to be able to advise expertly on what is best for each brand and content idea. You are here to deliver the best, so do not underestimate your potential and expertise in your role.

Join us on our journey to redefine our marketing capabilities. There is so much growth in this team so bring your expertise, excitement, creativity and unwavering enthusiasm.

• You will be entering a dynamic and fast paced environment. Not only will you be entering a vibrant industry, but you will constantly be engaged in diverse tasks, interacting with various professionals and tackling new challenges.
• The fast-paced nature keeps you agile and offers continuous learning opportunities.
• If you like connecting with people, this is for you. You will be speaking with individuals from diverse backgrounds. You can have a tangible impact on someone’s career while meeting the evolving needs of clients.
• Benefits: Company Pension Plan, Life Assurance, retail discounts, season ticket loan etc.
• Tailored programme of training and development.

Our strategy is aligned to the key trends shaping the world of work. We are leading the way in enabling organisations, adapt to a changing world of work and ensuring the future employability of people. Our purpose of making the future work for everyone translates into a bold strategic vision of enabling sustainable and lifelong employability for individuals and empowering organisations to optimise their workforces.
