This is a hands‑on Marketing Executive role focused on keeping our go‑to‑market activity live, accurate and moving. You’ll sit at the heart of a high‑performing marketing team, delivering BAU marketing activity across multiple brands, sites and channels. When this role is working well, campaigns go live on time, websites stay current, communications land properly, and senior marketers aren’t dragged into execution detail.

This is an early‑career role, but it carries real ownership. You’ll be trusted to run activity, spot issues early, and keep marketing flowing week to week.

You’re organised, proactive and delivery‑led. You care about things being right. You don’t wait to be chased, and you don’t let basics slip. You’re comfortable working at pace, juggling multiple brands and priorities and you take pride in doing the fundamentals well, consistently. You have a strong work ethic and take responsibility seriously. When something needs doing - a launch, a deadline, a live issue - you step up and see it through, even when it falls outside a neat 9–5.

• Hands‑on experience delivering marketing activity, not just planning it
• Strong organisational skills and attention to detail
• Strong written communication skills, with the ability to write clear, confident and accurate marketing copy that’s ready to go live
• Confidence updating websites, landing pages and offers
• Experience supporting email and SMS campaigns
• The ability to work with paid media specialists to implement campaigns
• Good judgement around copy, tone and compliance
• A practical, delivery‑led mindset

Automotive or multi‑site experience is useful, but not essential.

• Keeping our websites current: homepage updates, landing pages, offers, blogs and news content
• Executing direct marketing activity including email, SMS and direct mail
• Supporting paid campaigns by coordinating assets, landing pages and timings
• Making sure offers, pricing and messaging are accurate first time
• Supporting site‑level events with planning, POS and coordination
• Working with dealerships so activity is understood and used
• Helping keep a clear view of what’s live, what’s coming and what’s changed

• Competitive salary
• Company Car
• Discounts on all company products and services
• 30 days annual leave
• Instant membership to our dedicated Employee Assistance Programme
• Instant access to the Peoples Refer a Friend programme
