Marketing Assistant
Burton-on-Trent, Derbyshire (Fully Office-Based)
Are you a proactive and creative marketing professional looking to step up into a fast-paced, global brand environment? Elevate Recruitment is proud to partner with a market-leading brand owner based in Burton, Derbyshire, to find a diligent and organized Marketing Assistant.
This is a brilliant "hands-on" role for someone who loves variety—ranging from digital content creation and social media management to physical product coordination and event planning.
The Opportunity
Reporting directly to the Head of Marketing, you will be a vital part of the commercial team, ensuring the smooth delivery of the global marketing plan. This role is perfect for a detail-oriented individual who enjoys seeing a project through from the initial creative brief to final distribution.
Your Key Responsibilities
-
Social Media & Content: Own the social media calendar. You will be responsible for copywriting, scheduling, and publishing content, as well as tracking analytics to report on monthly performance.
-
Creative Support: Assist in the development of marketing materials, including packaging, brochures, and in-store POS (leaflets, posters, flyers).
-
Commercial Liaison: Support the sales team by preparing and dispatching product samples and marketing collateral to key accounts.
-
Budget & Admin: Manage essential department functions, including raising purchase orders, maintaining financial records, and general administrative coordination.
-
Events & Suppliers: Assist in the planning of trade shows and exhibitions while working closely with external designers and printers to ensure brand consistency.
What You Bring
-
Experience: A marketing qualification (or working towards one) and/or relevant experience in a fast-paced commercial environment.
-
Communication: Exceptional copywriting skills and the ability to adapt your style across different platforms and audiences.
-
Organization: A natural ability to manage multiple deadlines and projects simultaneously without losing sight of the details.
-
Technical Literacy: Proficient in MS Office (Word, Excel, PowerPoint) and experienced with social media scheduling tools.
-
Drive: A "can-do" attitude—you are just as comfortable analyzing data as you are handling physical products and preparing shipments for distribution.
