Working under the Growth Director, the Marketing Manager role is focused on managing the marketing activity for the brands within The Digital Maze Group. To do this, you’ll be utilising our team (or third parties where required) in design, video, paid media, social media, web development etc. The primary objective of this role is to ensure the Group (and brands within it) are recognisable, up to date and exciting to customers - with a focus on lead generation.
Ideally you will have a minimum of three years’ experience in a relevant role, preferably with an agency. The role requires someone capable of managing their own time and priorities, responding to the group’s needs at short notice and carrying out their own research but knowing when to ask for help.
You’ll need a genuine interest in the digital marketing industry, a thirst for knowledge and perhaps a bit of a competitive streak.
This is a hybrid role requiring you to work from our office in Derby at least twice a week, although you are welcome to work in the office five days a week if desired. All applicants are required to be able to work in the UK.
