Marketing Manager

Ambition is looking for a hands-on Marketing Manager to take ownership of our UK and USA marketing activity to help us build for the next phase of growth.

Working closely with Ambition's leadership team, you will translate Ambition's commercial priorities into focused marketing activity that strengthens our market position, supports our consultants, and creates greater engagement with the clients and audiences that matter most.

This is a broad, hands-on role, moving between planning and doing: developing a campaign, creating content, working with consultants, running an event, owning digital and social channels and analysing what is working.

You'll own the day-to-day delivery of marketing for Ambition, including;

• Turning Ambition's commercial priorities into a clear, focused marketing plan.
• Planning and delivering campaigns across priority markets, clients and candidates.
• Creating and activating content, thought leadership, email, social and events.
• Building the profile of Ambition, our leadership team and our consultants.
• Working with consultants on targeted marketing activity.
• Creating the credentials, case studies, presentations and sales collateral to help consultants win business.
• Managing our website, CRM/email activity, social channels and external marketing providers.
• Tracking what's working and using the data to continually improve where we invest our time and budget.

Just as importantly, you'll help us bring greater impact to marketing. There will always be new ideas and opportunities in a growing entrepreneurial business. Part of your job will be helping us decide what we do, what we don't do and what we prioritise.

You'll probably be an experienced Marketing Manager, or an ambitious marketer ready to take on greater ownership.

You'll be

• A strong B2B marketer with experience delivering campaigns from idea to execution.
• Commercially minded and interested in how marketing contributes to growth
• A confident writer and communicator who can turn expertise into engaging content.
• Comfortable working directly with senior leaders and sales/recruitment consultants.
• Highly organised and able to manage multiple priorities without losing sight of what matters.
• Confident enough to challenge constructively when priorities compete.
• Comfortable using CRM, social and digital marketing tools.
• Someone who enjoys doing the work as much as thinking about it.

Recruitment or professional service experience would be useful, but not essential. We are interested in finding someone with the right commercial mindset, energy and the ability to get things done.
