- Showroom & events - keep the UK showroom looking sharp, support trade fairs, and represent the brand at key events.
- Collaborate & innovate - assist across marketing projects, proofread and edit content, track performance, and help shape strategy for growth.
What we're looking for:
- Digital skills: confident in Microsoft Office, Adobe (or similar), and all major social media platforms.
- Marketing experience: 2-4 years in a similar role with a degree-level qualification in Marketing, Communications, or related field.
- Creative & professional: able to work independently or in a team, bringing initiative and solutions-focused thinking.
