- A proactive approach and a passion for finding new opportunities and delivering results.
- The ability to combine strategic thinking with hands\-on delivery.
- A genuine desire to make a positive impact on learners, communities and organisational success.
- The drive to work towards ambitious targets and demonstrate the impact of marketing activity.
If you're full of ideas, commercially aware, love building relationships and want a role where no two days are the same, we'd love to hear from you.
The successful candidate will be primarily based at Lancashire Adult Learning but will be required to travel across sites.
What You Will Be Doing:
- Support the Head of Marketing and Comms in the development and delivery of impactful marketing activity and collateral.
- Plan, execute, track and measure targeted and creative multichannel marketing campaigns.
- Support the management of online communication channels, including social media and websites, ensuring all content is accurate and up to date.
- Ensure creative thinking for all campaigns and projects, identifying key target audiences and defining goals, conducting market research to analyse trends and identifying opportunities.

- A proven track record of creating/influencing innovative and creative multichannel marketing campaigns.
