We are looking for a talented and driven person to join the Marketing Department of our  business to help drive our ambitious growth plans.

• Are you up for being a part of the Marketing Team to promote System1, our thought leadership, partnership activity, product launches and promotional activity
• Are you excited by working with leading edge IP and products that can make a huge impact on our customers businesses

What will you be doing?

• Campaign Lead – you will lead the development of our global campaigns such as Diversity in creativity, Euro 2020, Nation’s favourite Ad Awards, Lemon book launch etc. These represent thought leadership for the business and are used to create Fame and ultimately create new business leads. You will be responsible for agreeing the brief and managing every aspect of these campaigns.
• PR Management – one way we amplify our Fame is via effective PR around the these events. You will work closely with our PR agency to ensure we have maximised every possibly opportunity to promote the event. You will also work with our partners to find ways to amplify their PR and ensure we gain from it.
• Event Management – many of our campaigns require a high level of event organisation (book launches, awards, networking events etc). You will be responsible for making sure these are well planned in advance and everyone is briefed.
• Annual Calendar – you will be the owner of the annual marketing calendar which sets the priority for product, partnership and promotional activity for System1. You will gain sign off for the plan with the CMO and be responsible for communicating this to other departments primarily Sales via the Go-to-market team. You will also create and run regular reports in PowerBI to measure our progress against the plan.
• Partnership Support – we have a very experienced team spending a lot of time working with partners (media owners and ad agencies) and customers. There will be opportunities to support them in the creation of materials and managing events
• Brand Materials – as we launch new products there is a need to create standard sales materials which the Go-To-Market team will adapt for various channels and customers

You need to be this kind of person:

• Getting things done – a fantastic ability to get things done on time and to a high standard. Enjoys getting stuck in and working to fast deadlines
• Relationship Builder – working with many different teams both internal and external required really strong relationship building skills
• Creative Copy Writing – given the amount of content we create it would be helpful to have strong copy writing skills to establish a consistent tone of voice
• Positive Attitude – enjoys working in a creative and fast moving environment and thrives in a team role co-ordinating between different teams.
• Intellectual Curiosity – given the thought leadership we create and foundation in behavioural science an appreciation and curiosity in our research would help

You need to have the following experience:

• Campaign Lead – ideally you will have experience owning and running a campaign from the briefing stage through to execution and post campaign evaluation
• PR – experience running or overseeing PR initiatives to create Fame for a brand
• Event Management – planning, hosting & publicising events
• Creative development – given the focus on ad testing and creative guidance it would be helpful if you have worked on creative development and know the process
• Copy writing – writing copy for features and also working with a copywriter. We have our own in house ‘editor in chief’ who is very good so leveraging his content and style would be good.
