The client operates in a competitive B2C and B2B space locally, requiring a marketer who is both strategically minded and hands-on. You will work closely with internal teams or external partners to create compelling content, manage social media communities, execute email marketing campaigns, and analyse performance data to ensure a strong return on investment.

- Create, schedule, and publish engaging content across all relevant social media platforms (including Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, and Twitter) tailored to the Blackpool and Lancashire audience.
- Manage the company’s website content using CMS platforms like WordPress, ensuring it is optimised for search engines (SEO) and provides a excellent user experience (UX).
- Plan and execute end-to-end email marketing campaigns, from building segmented lists and designing templates in platforms like Mailchimp to analysing open rates and conversions.
- Monitor, analyse, and report on campaign performance using Google Analytics, Google Search Console, and social media insights, making data-driven recommendations for continuous improvement.

- Proven experience as a Digital Marketing Executive or similar role, with a portfolio demonstrating successful campaigns (e.g., growth in traffic, engagement, or leads).
- Hands-on proficiency with key marketing tools and platforms: Google Analytics, Google Ads, Facebook Business Manager, email marketing software, and WordPress.
- Excellent written communication skills with the ability to produce clear, persuasive, and grammatically perfect copy for websites, blogs, social media, and emails.
- A self-starter with strong analytical abilities, capable of working independently to manage multiple projects and deadlines in a fast-paced environment. A genuine interest in the local Blackpool business landscape is a significant advantage.
