ME08
Marketing Executive
(£21,500 OTE)
About the role
An ambitious and expanding marketing agency requires a talented Marketing Executive to join its client facing team, based in Prestwick, Ayrshire.
From day one, you will be an ambassador for the agency. You will hit the ground running and be largely autonomous, securing new clients by energetically prospecting for business, arranging and leading client meetings, writing client proposals, actively taking part in pitches and delivering the resulting marketing projects.
To excel in the role, you will:
• build, regularly communicate with and maintain a network of contacts throughout Scotland
• initiate and manage relationships with potential clients and partner agencies throughout Scotland
• contribute to the growth of our project portfolio with brand name clients
The marketing projects that you will subsequently deliver are likely to focus on our five key service areas, which are:
• marketing planning
• marketing research
• marketing communications
• marketing training
• marketing project management
This is a challenging role. Nevertheless, it is perfect for an individual who will thrive on taking responsibility for sourcing and managing their own portfolio of projects as well as playing an integral part in the expansion of the agency.
Your success in the role will be measured on your ability to secure and undertake client work to set monthly targets, and on the quality of that work and your organisational skills.

About you
