​We’re partnering with a market-leading automotive business who are looking for a Marketing Specialist to join their team.

This is a hands-on role for someone who enjoys seeing campaigns through from start to finish. You’ll sit close to the commercial side of the business, working alongside sales, finance and senior stakeholders, and making sure marketing activity genuinely delivers results, not just good ideas.

If you like ownership, structure and being trusted to get on with things, this could be a really nice next step.

What you’ll be doing

  • Running B2C marketing campaigns end to end, from planning through to launch and review

  • Managing budgets carefully and accurately, with a strong eye for detail

  • Working closely with stakeholders across the business to keep everyone aligned

  • Briefing agencies and internal teams to bring campaigns to life

  • Reviewing performance and using insights to improve future activity

What they’re hoping to see

You don’t need to tick every box, but this will give you a good sense of what the team is looking for:

  • Experience managing B2C marketing campaigns, with confidence taking ownership from idea through to delivery

  • Solid budget management experience and attention to detail

  • Clear, confident communication skills and the ability to work with stakeholders at all levels

  • Experience within the motor trade would be a bonus, but strong B2C backgrounds are very welcome

Why apply?

  • A chance to join a well-established, market-leading automotive brand

  • Salary up to £38k

  • Hybrid working with 3 days in the office

  • A role where marketing has a clear, visible commercial impact
