We are Cambridge University Press & Assessment, a world-leading academic publisher and assessment organisation, and a proud part of the University of Cambridge.
Our mission is to contribute to society through the pursuit of education, learning, and research at the highest international levels of excellence. Which is why every year, we give vital support to millions of people in more than 170 countries around the world. From teachers and learners to researchers and academics, we help to build confidence, unlock potential, and enable success. We give people the opportunity to show what they’ve learnt, we spread knowledge, spark enquiry, and aid understanding.
We achieve this by embracing change, and continuously focusing on our customers’ needs. And by collaborating, and carefully listening to our customers and to each other, we keep moving forward, keep innovating, and keep finding newer and better ways of doing things.
The Role
We’re looking for a dynamic, enthusiastic Marketing Executive to join our busy marketing team. You will support and own a range of global product marketing campaigns to promote our education resources. This role will also involve supporting on some brand marketing too, providing an excellent opportunity to develop an understanding of both brand and product together.
This is a varied role, delivering marketing campaigns that bring our resources to life for customers as well as engaging and supporting our sales teams to ensure they are confident speaking to customers.
Your work will include using organic and paid social, print, content marketing and email marketing, as well as regular reporting on campaign performance. You will have the support of our digital marketing team to implement digital campaigns but a practical understanding of how to use the different social channels to best effect is important.
About you
The ideal candidate will be curious and have a real drive to understand customer needs for our brand and products. You’ll understand your markets and competition and be able to confidently articulate our right to win.
You’ll be confident working with a range of stakeholders to ensure your campaigns reflect the needs of the business as well as tell a compelling story to our customers.
We are looking for someone who is organised and detail orientated, able to confidently manage a range of projects, whether you are supporting or leading. You’ll have some experience working on multi-channel campaigns and some digital experience is key.
We are looking for someone who is creative and with excellent execution skills and confident in presenting their ideas. You’ll be working with designers and printers so ability to manage projects through the process from conception to delivery is essential.
The key to our work is our colleagues, whose shared commitment enables us to have an ever-greater impact. We are a united, vibrant, and respectful global community of people, and we ensure that every individual is recognised, listened to, and cared for. And because our impact is amplified when our people are empowered, we give everyone the opportunity to develop in their own way. Whether you want a career that’s linear, or want to follow your own path, we’ll support you, and help give you the resources and training you’ll need to be bold and take ownership of what you do.
The closing date for application is 19th June and interviews are scheduled to take place w/c 27th June and w/c 4th July.
Cambridge University Press & Assessment is committed to being a place where anyone can enjoy a successful career, where it’s safe to speak up, and where we learn continuously to improve together. We welcome applications from all candidates, regardless of demographic characteristics (age, disability, educational attainment, ethnicity, gender, marital status, neurodiversity, religion, sex, and sexual identity), cultural, or social class/background.
We believe that diversity of thought, background, and approach create better outcomes. More importantly, fostering an inclusive culture is the right thing to do, and it’s part of how we achieve our purpose: to contribute to society through the pursuit of education, learning and research at the highest international levels of excellence. Ensuring that anyone, no matter who they are, feels they belong here is an essential part of who we are and the contribution we make to society, and to our planet.
To enable an environment which our people can thrive in, our customers benefit from, and where work complements life, we empower everyone to manage their time and capacity, and to prioritise their wellbeing. That’s why from day one everyone at Cambridge University Press & Assessment can discuss flexible working options to find the best solution for them and their role.
