About this role
We are looking for a Digital Marketing Executive, to support our performance marketing specialists.
The role will be fast-paced, and provide the right candidate with a rewarding exposure to all aspects of our performance operations. You will work closely with the whole performance team, supporting a variety of operations, building knowledge and experience and helping to build, deliver and refine client campaigns and marketing projects.
Progression for the right candidate would be towards a service specialism (eg PPC, SEO, CRO) or a role specialism across various services (eg reporting, client services [eg account manager], digital marketing manager.)
The role will be based at one of our two offices (Central Manchester or Burnley, Lancashire). By late 2021, you will be expected to operate from the office 3-5 days per week. All necessary equipment will be provided.
The role will vary, and rarely be the same for two days on the run. A typical set of activities in a given month might be:
SEO: working with our SEO and content specialists on keyword research, build keyword maps, scoping out redirects, conducting competitor research.
PPC: working with our PPC specialists to build campaigns, monitoring campaign performance and producing ad creative.
This role has 3 entry tiers, as follows:
Graduate - direct from university (or equivalent) with no commercial digital marketing experience, but a hunger to learn or progress
Entry-level - under 2 years experience in-house or agency, in a digital marketing role.
Mid-level - 2-4 years experience in-house or agency, looking to progress quickly into a specialism
This role is open to candidate applications for all 3 tiers. Starting salary reflects the entry tier
We look for a blend of the following skills. We recognise that our candidates have varying strengths across “creative” and “scientific” disciplines - a strong mix is vital. We value candidates who understand their own personality and skills - and are pointing themselves in the right direction.
Technology-literate - native in productivity software (eg MS Office/Google Suite)
Digital marketing knowledge - whilst not necessarily “an expert” at the outset, you can show an understanding of the channels involved.
Strong communicator - excellent verbal and written communication skills
Confident - able and willing to open conversations with colleagues and clients, never afraid to ask for help or pick up the telephone
Analytical - comfortable around numbers, reports, charts and spreadsheets
Creative - innovative, and able to produce new ideas and thinking to solve problems
Collaborative - always looking to work with others. This role is not for people that want to hide
Commercial ‘nous’ - you understand the business outcomes that our clients want us to achieve for them
