Marketing Co-ordinator
Loughborough University London
Full time, Open Ended
Loughborough University’s reputation goes before it; not least because it’s consistently amongst the top 10 universities in the UK, three-time winners of University of the Year at the Whatuni? Student Choice Awards, and University of the Year for Sport by The Times and Sunday Times Good University Guide 2022. We have been inspiring winners since 1909 across a wide range of research and study areas, including design, technology, international relations, management, media, and sport.
In 2015 we opened Loughborough University London, a postgraduate campus located on Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park. The campus brings together influential thought leaders, pioneering researchers, and creative innovators with modern facilities, unrivalled industry partnerships, outstanding teaching, and an entrepreneurial spirit.
To match our ambitions for the London campus we are expanding our award-winning marketing team and seeking a Marketing Co-ordinator.
You will work alongside the London Marketing Officer to create, deliver, and evaluate, innovative and effective marketing campaigns and activities for student recruitment (postgraduate taught and research opportunities). You will also support colleagues with their communications needs.
They’ll be lots of opportunities to flex your digital marketing skills too, producing engaging and timely content for Loughborough University London’s social media channels, booking ad campaigns, ensuring UX is embedded in your website updates, and delivering email communication to potential students and applicants.
Your ability to connect with people from all backgrounds and at all levels will come to the fore when organising photo shoots, producing promotional videos, and interviewing people for written case studies. A keen sense of audience insight coupled with project management skills will not only help with this content creation, but also when developing printed materials and helping to organise and run events, like open days and online chats.
Excellent writing skills are a must to be successful in this role. You will be producing engaging and relevant copy for a wide range of audiences and channels on a daily basis, from blog posts to post-campaign reports.
This is an ideal role for someone who can thrive in a fast-paced environment and bring ideas and creativity to the table. You will be working amongst a motivated team of individuals who go above and beyond to deliver stand-out marketing, so being able to collaborate and prioritise workload will help you thrive at Loughborough University London.
Benefits of the role include 20 days holiday and an additional 14 statutory and customary days leave, support with purchasing an annual season ticket for travel, discounted gym membership, and access to many more employee benefits from pensions to childcare.
We are committed to equality, diversity and inclusion and recognise the value of a team with a wide range of experiences and perspectives. We welcome and encourage job applications from people of all backgrounds. We particularly welcome disabled, Black, Asian, and Minority Ethnic and LGBT+ and non-binary candidates.
