Job description

Community Marketing Manager, Global Exhibitions

Salary up to £43,000 plus bonus and benefits

Central London (hybrid, three days a week in the office)

About the Role

Our client is part of an established global B2 B events and intelligence business. Within it, this team has the feel of a start-up: ambitious, with a real growth mindset, and quick to test and act on new ideas. You get the energy of a fast-moving team with the security, resources and career opportunities of a much larger organisation.

This role gives you real ownership of community and content marketing across two global events. You will work alongside the exhibition Marketing Manager and report to the Marketing Director, shaping how each audience is engaged from the early stages of the event cycle right through to show day.

The business invests heavily in its people. Every new starter completes a structured three month induction and training plan, followed by ongoing advanced development. Mentoring and career paths extend across the wider group, including international opportunities for those who want them.

What the Role Involves

Owning the content strategy and creating content for two events a year
Building the social media strategy with a clear focus on engagement and audience growth
Leading the delivery of visitor and exhibitor promotion campaigns
Producing articles, newsletters, video, email and social content, plus digital assets such as banners
Managing partnerships with associations and publications, and creating the assets that drive visitor registrations
Writing promotional copy and collateral for internal teams and clients
Keeping event websites up to date
Moving customers from interest to advocacy with targeted, well written messaging
Working with colleagues across the business to deliver shared goals
Taking ownership, accountability and responsibility for your work

What You'll Need

A degree (2:1 or above) or equivalent experience, ideally in marketing or communications
Two or more years of marketing experience, with exhibitions experience preferred
A commercial approach, with a track record of generating leads and footfall and measuring conversion and ROI
Hands on digital marketing experience, including social media, SEO and SEM
Strong writing skills and confident verbal communication
A creative, analytical mind and close attention to detail
The ability to work independently and deliver against tight deadlines
Energy, ambition and an appetite for responsibility

If you enjoy creating content that builds genuine communities and want to grow your career in a business that backs its people, I would love to hear from you. Send your CV to me directly, or get in touch for a confidential conversation.
