Digital Marketing Executive

Are you up for a challenge? A hundred different nationalities, multiple time zones, varied platforms – one message.

We’re unique in higher education.  We are a consortium of leading UK universities dedicated to giving international students guaranteed access to universities worldwide and helping them succeed when they get there.  Our qualifications are recognised by our own universities and by universities internationally, and, far more than other qualifications, they prepare students to hit the ground running.

We’ve helped tens of thousands of international students gain guaranteed access to leading universities, choosing from thousands of different courses, and earning good undergraduate and postgraduate degrees in a huge range of subjects.  Now we need your help.

NCUK is seeking an experienced digital marketing, social media and communications professional to lead its internal and external communications to customers around the world.  NCUK has one clear message, we are the best route to university for international students.  Over 40% of students come through word of mouth recommendations but we want to make sure our success is shared to a wider audience.

As our Digital Marketing Executive, you will manage our social media accounts and create content and copy for a variety of platforms.  You will build our online presence and lead on communications with our customer base – prospective higher education students around the world.  You will keep our internal and external stakeholders informed of relevant NCUK news.

Our ideal candidate will be experienced with a range of digital media platforms, a skilled copywriter across a range of media and audiences, and an excellent teamworker.  Your attention to detail and commitment to quality will ensure that your work is always of the highest standard, and your accessible, engaging writing style will help build our audience across the globe.

We offer a friendly and energetic working environment, excellent benefits and a commitment to training and developing our staff.  This role will be based in our Head Office in central Manchester, and may involve some domestic and international travel.
