  • Continuously refines campaigns using A/B testing, user feedback, segmentation analysis, and performance metrics.
  • Supports the promotion of recruitment and programme-related events to maximise attendance and engagement, and manages post-event activities such as follow-ups, feedback collection, and content repurposing.
  • Tracks, analyses, and reports on campaign performance using tools such as Google Analytics, CRM systems, and social media analytics, providing actionable insights to improve lead generation, nurturing, and conversion efforts.
  • Presents campaign findings and strategic recommendations to the Head of Marketing and other key stakeholders to inform decision-making.

Additional Responsibilities

Qualifications:

  • Holds an undergraduate degree with 3+ years of hands-on marketing experience in a dynamic, fast-paced environment.
  • Demonstrates a proven track record of independently managing and executing successful end-to-end campaigns, from strategy through to implementation.
  • Skilled at scaling outreach and generating high-quality inbound interest.
  • Possesses a strong understanding of digital and community-based growth strategies, with effective network-building abilities.
  • Brings a data-driven mindset, with the ability to experiment, analyse, and optimise marketing efforts.
  • Confident in reporting performance metrics, presenting insights, and recommending strategic improvements.
  • Experienced in crafting sharp, results-oriented content tailored to different audiences and channels.
  • Maintains a high level of attention to detail and demonstrates strong organisational capabilities.
  • Has a good eye for design and visual communication.
  • Proactive and adaptable team player, willing to contribute beyond core responsibilities in support of a small, collaborative team.

Nice to Have:
