Marketing Apprentice

We have a unique opening for a Marketing Apprentice to join our growing team, based out of Bury St Edmunds. The career path on offer is, literally, unmatched.

Unmatched is part marketing agency, part business consultancy, with a specific focus on Hub Spot and digital transformation. We're a Hub Spot Diamond Partner and a team of 9, working with clients across the UK and Europe.

We're at a growth point in our journey, so you'll be in for the ride and learning experience of your life. Up for the challenge?

This is a content role, and it's entirely about us.

You won't be doing client work. You'll be building Unmatched's own presence on Linked In, You Tube, Tik Tok and Instagram, and you'll own it. That's rare for an apprenticeship, and it means the work you make is yours to point at.

Practically, that means filming, editing, posting and reporting. Short-form video, talking-head clips, carousels, graphics, behind-the-scenes office content, event coverage, recruitment content, and helping the team turn what they know into content people actually watch. We work with businesses solving real problems, and there's a lot of good material sat inside this team that nobody has filmed yet. That's the gap you're filling.

You'll have proper kit to do it with. We provide professional grade camera, audio, lighting and editing hardware, plus the software. No shooting on your own phone and hoping for the best.

Reporting into our Marketing Executive, you'll grow your career with the business as we delight our customers and grow our team.

You'll be starting a Content Creator apprenticeship (or similar marketing/digital apprenticeship), alongside your learning with us. We'll fund further training as needed, and you'll get allocated time for Hub Spot Academy courses too, because understanding the marketing engine behind the content is what will make you genuinely good at this.

We're a flexible team, however as you establish your career we'll need you in our central Bury St Edmunds office 3 days a week (with free on-street parking). Most of the content you'll make involves being around people, so the office days matter. We love remote working, so we'll make sure you're fully equipped to work effectively from home on the other days.

No degree required. A showreel, a portfolio, an account you run, or any body of work you're proud of will count for more than qualifications here.

We have a regular office dog who loves a cuddle, so being comfortable around dogs is essential. He is also excellent content.

• A good eye for framing, pacing and what makes someone stop scrolling.
• Keen to learn proper camera, audio…
