Full job description

The Candidate:

We’re looking for an experienced, enthusiastic and competent marketer who understands the core principles of great marketing and has a strong set of digital skills to match. You’ll take a key role in delivering campaigns that drive visitor attendance and ticket sales within budget, across three genuinely different audiences, so the ability to pivot tone and messaging so it resonates authentically with each one matters far more than a one-size-fits-all approach.

You’ll bring initiative and fresh ideas, get stuck into the customer-centric campaign, and manage your time independently across more than one project at once. We’re looking for around 2 to 3 years of hands-on marketing experience, ideally gained in a fast-paced consumer environment. A tenacious, can-do approach matters as much as the day-to-day marketing skillset.


Key Responsibilities:

*Contribute to the development of customer-centric marketing strategies
*Plan and deliver multi-channel campaigns on time and to budget
*Create compelling content across website, email, social, print and digital channels
*Help drive CRO and SEO on our event websites, using GA4 (and Clarity) to track the customer journey and spot what’s working in real time
*Plan, implement and analyse email marketing campaigns
*Deliver end-to-end paid digital campaigns across search, display and social, working with agreed budgets and optimising towards ticket sales
*Manage organic and paid social media, working with our video editor to produce engaging reels and YouTube Shorts
*Write clear creative briefs and work with our in-house design team to bring campaign assets to life
*Build and maintain relationships with partners, sponsors, media, content creators, YouTubers, car clubs and exhibitors
*Liaise with Marketing Operations and report on campaign performance, providing clear insight and recommendations
*Support onsite marketing and event delivery live events.


Knowledge, Skills & Behaviours:
*Proven experience delivering multi-channel marketing campaigns
*Strong copywriting, proofreading and analytical skills
*Experience building email campaigns and using marketing automation (Pardot desirable)
*Website optimisation using GA4 to improve CRO and spot activation opportunities in real time (desirable)
*Working knowledge of SEO (desirable)
*Understanding of customer data, segmentation and reporting (Treasure Data desirable)
*Confident working with performance tracking and response reporting
*Comfortable managing multiple stakeholders
*Experience or interest in cars, motoring or motorsport is an advantage, but not essential
