Ideally you’ll have a qualification in marketing, or some experience, but most of all, you’ll have a great attitude, be determined to progress and love what you do.

Create marketing strategies, budget planning and creating content
Grow and expand our social presence and interact with followers
Raise our profile
Work with our creative team to write kick ass case studies and blog posts
Research and monitor what others are doing, learn and be relevant

Be an active member of our team — contribute and help others wherever you can.
Keep up to date with new social media platforms, web technologies, and digital marketing trends; implement these new technologies in developing campaigns and update current campaigns to include new information
It would be great if you:
Had a strong understanding of Google analytics, Google Ads, HootSuite (or other scheduling software) and MailChimp
Had a technical understanding of web search performance
