Marketing Assistant (Part-time)

Part- time Marketing Assistant

Do you need to fit work around childcare, a side business or family commitments?

Are you looking for a role where you can utilise your existing skillset whilst expanding your knowledge of marketing?

As proud recipients of multiple recent awards including ‘Best Small Recruitment Business’ and ‘Best Recruitment Team of the Year’, we are looking to inject fresh energy into our fast-growing team, with the appointment of a part-time Marketing Assistant to support our Head of Marketing.

You might not have any marketing experience, and that’s okay! A previous career in an area like administration or clerical support would suit this role well.

In this role you will be exposed to all areas of the marketing department, with the main focus being SEO (Search Engine Optimisation) and content creation.

Therefore, you will need to have strong copywriting skills, and excellent attention to detail when it comes to pesky grammar mistakes! You’ll be proactive and happy to get stuck into whatever task requires attention.

What we are looking for:

• GCSE (or equivalent) English and Maths at B or above
• An interest in digital marketing, content creation, and copywriting
• Excellent writing skills
• Strong communication skills
• Attention to detail
• Ability to work as part of a team and independently
• Willingness to take initiative and be proactive
• A creative thinker – someone who isn’t afraid to share ideas

Your day-to-day activities will include:

• Working directly alongside our Head of Marketing to plan, create, schedule, and post social content
• Day to day management of social media channels
• Engaging with customers and candidates on social media channels
• Producing content (including writing blogs and articles) to complement VIQU’s SEO plans and business goals
• Writing press releases and responding to journalists
• Creating monthly / quarterly website and social media reports using Google Analytics
• Using Canva to create eye-catching graphics and collateral
• Brainstorming fun, new and exciting ideas to engage key audiences

Benefits:

• Newly-refurbished office with relaxed dress code
• Working from home opportunities
• Dog-friendly office
• Yearly international team Christmas conferences (past destinations include St Petersburg, Dubai, Havana & Rio de Janeiro)
• Regular socials and team events
• Hard work and commitment to your role are recognised through a monthly ‘spin the wheel’ scheme, gifting extra holiday, team coffee orders and restaurant / experience vouchers etc. to individuals who go above and beyond
• Life assurance policy

Hours: This role will be part-time. The proposed hours are Monday-Wednesday (8am-5pm), however, we are happy to be flexible for the right individual.

Salary: £13,800 for 24 hours per week (equivalent to £23K for FTE)

Location: Birmingham City Centre / Five Ways (excellent transport links – including the train, bus, and tram)

This role will initially be office-based, however, remote working days will be considered once the probationary period has been passed successfully.
