This is a senior, client-facing role responsible for leading marketing and communications projects while coordinating the delivery of our creative services across marketing, graphic design and video production.

Working closely with the Joint Managing Directors and wider project delivery teams, you'll ensure projects are effectively planned, resourced and delivered to the highest standards.

You'll act as the senior marketing lead for both Marick and our clients, providing strategic advice, building strong client relationships and coordinating multidisciplinary teams to deliver integrated creative solutions.

This is an exciting opportunity for someone who enjoys combining strategic thinking, commercial awareness and project leadership in a fast-paced agency environment.

• Lead marketing and communications projects for Marick and our clients.
• Provide strategic marketing advice that delivers measurable business outcomes.
• Lead the marketing of Marick's ticketed events, helping to drive delegate attendance, sponsorship opportunities and event revenue.

We're looking for someone who combines strategic and tactical marketing expertise with exceptional creativity, commercial awareness and strong organisational and leadership skills.

You'll enjoy building long-term client relationships, coordinating teams and delivering high-quality creative projects that make a genuine impact.

Above all, you'll be a creative thinker with the ability to take a client brief or even a loose idea and transform it into compelling marketing campaigns, engaging content or memorable event concepts. You'll bring fresh ideas, challenge conventional thinking where appropriate and inspire both clients and colleagues with your creativity.

You'll be equally comfortable discussing marketing strategy with senior stakeholders as you are facilitating client workshops, developing creative concepts, briefing designers and video producers, or supporting the development of junior colleagues.

You'll thrive in a fast‑paced agency…
