You will be joining at a critical time when you have the opportunity to play an important role in establishing and shaping the organisation and its brand, marketing and communications activity, as well as develop your skills and experience as part of a growing team.

The Marketing and Communications team has a broad set of responsibilities and acts as an ‘internal agency’, supporting Podium-wide programmes of work. The role will provide the opportunity to own projects, taking work from strategic development, through to execution and management.

The role will report directly to the Head of Marketing and will work closely and collaboratively with the wider team and diverse external stakeholders.

- Creating ad hoc and planned internal and external collateral (templates, presentations, guidelines, research reports etc.), working with external designers, suppliers, and partners as relevant.
- Ensure consistency in messaging across all outputs and support with brand and design identity management, ensuring assets are used in the right way internally and externally, supporting the team and stakeholders with guidance.

Newsletter communications

THE CANDIDATE

The role is very hands-on, and the right candidate will thrive off working in an entrepreneurial, growing team, will be comfortable starting with a blank canvas (sometimes building activity and audiences from scratch) and will be excited by the opportunity to develop their skills across all aspects of brand, marketing and communications, bringing their own ideas to shape how things are done.

You will have experience in Marketing and/or Digital Communications creation and management, and will enjoy staying up to date with the latest trends, tools and techniques.
