• At least 4 years in a marketing management role, leading a team
• A proven track record with online campaigns — budgets, targets and results you can show
• Marketing experience in education or recruitment
• Comfort working with data: ad managers, analytics and CRM tools
• Experience with marketing analytics and reporting, using Google Analytics and the ad platforms' own dashboards, to show clear return on spend
• Working knowledge of SEO, email marketing and landing page optimisation to drive and convert enquiries
• Strong people leadership: the ability to set clear targets, coach team members and hold them accountable for results
• Sound judgement and good decision-making when managing a budget and balancing competing priorities across several branches.
• Excellent communication and presentation skills, with the confidence to report to senior leadership
• Willingness to travel to branches, and to work independently while meeting deadlines
