The role

This is a hands-on, part-time contract role, likely 2 days a week, running from mid-September through to end of November initially, subject to review.

• Project manage your own workload, prioritising and delivering independently in a fast-moving agency environment

What we're looking for

• Marketing manager level experience, ideally agency-side or B2B
• Strong writing skills, comfortable adapting tone and style to brief
• Confident working in Umbraco and Mailchimp
• Very organised, with a track record of managing your own workload and priorities
• Quick to learn and quick to slot into a new team
• Confident and clear communicator, comfortable approaching stakeholders across the business with requests
• Available to start mid-September for an initial period through to end of November
