Marketing Executive

Are you a commercially minded Marketing Executive looking for a role where you can make a real impact and develop your career?

We're working with an established UK business based in Buckingham looking to appoint a proactive, hands-on Marketing Executive to take ownership of its day-to-day marketing activity, while playing an increasingly important role in shaping its wider marketing direction.

This is an excellent opportunity for someone who enjoys the practical side of marketing but is equally interested in understanding customers, markets and commercial objectives. There is genuine scope for the successful individual to develop into a broader, more senior marketing position over the coming years.

About the Company - Marketing Executive

Our client is an established UK manufacturer operating within a specialist technical product market, supplying customers through a network of trade partners, merchants and installers.

With exciting opportunities for growth and plenty of untapped potential within its marketing function, the business is looking for someone who can bring fresh ideas, take ownership and help develop its marketing approach for the future.

About the Role - Marketing Executive

Reporting to the Managing Director, you'll take responsibility for delivering a broad range of marketing activity, working closely with internal teams, particularly Sales, alongside external creative and digital suppliers.

Responsibilities will include:

* Planning and delivering marketing campaigns, product launches and promotional activity aligned with commercial objectives.

* Managing social media, creating content, writing marketing copy and maintaining the company website through WordPress.

* Developing email campaigns, managing marketing databases and monitoring campaign performance.

* Coordinating trade shows, exhibitions, video content and marketing materials for merchants, distributors and trade partners.

* Briefing and managing external creative suppliers, ensuring projects are delivered effectively and within budget.

* Working with Sales to understand customer needs, identify opportunities and use market and campaign insight to improve marketing activity.

Importantly, this isn't simply a marketing execution role. As you develop your understanding of the products, customers and markets, you'll have increasing involvement in campaign planning, customer insight, product positioning and wider marketing strategy, with the opportunity to grow into a more senior position over time.

About You

We're looking for someone who is proactive, commercially aware and naturally curious about how marketing can contribute to business growth.

You'll ideally have:

* Experience in a hands-on marketing role, with strong digital marketing and campaign management skills.

* Good working knowledge of social media, email marketing and WordPress.

* Strong copywriting skills and experience creating marketing content and basic creative assets using Canva or similar.

* An analytical mindset, with the ability to interpret data and use insight to make practical recommendations.

* Confidence working with different teams, managing external suppliers and taking ownership of projects.

* The ambition to develop beyond day-to-day marketing delivery and take on greater strategic responsibility.

Experience within manufacturing, engineering, construction, building services or trade/merchant-led environments would be advantageous, but isn't essential. A full UK driving licence and regular access to a car are essential, as some external travel will be required. This is an office-based position, so due to the location of the Buckinghamshire office, this role is commutable from Milton Keynes, Leighton Buzzard, Brackley, Bicester, Buckingham, Towcester, Aylesbury, Northampton and Olney
