• Tracking, analysing, and reporting on all digital marketing activity, providing clear recommendations for improvement
• Monitoring website performance and advising on enhancements based on user behaviour, industry trends, and competitor insights
• Improving conversion rates across paid channels through A/B testing of messaging, creative, and targeting
• Working closely with media‑buying agencies to optimise budgets and campaign outcomes
• Reviewing portal performance and advising on strategy and spend
• Conducting monthly reviews of marketing activity and development performance to support lead and sales growth
• Evaluating competitor activity and identifying opportunities to strengthen our market position
• Partnering with our SEO agency to deliver annual strategies that improve website health, organic visibility, and keyword rankings
• Championing innovation by testing new tools, channels, and approaches
• Mentoring and supporting the Digital Marketing Assistant, helping them grow and manage their workload effectively

What success looks like

You’ll play a key role in delivering:

• High‑performing, well‑maintained websites with regular testing and updates
• Insight‑led recommendations for new products, channels, and campaign improvements
• Strong performance across all paid channels with effective budget utilisation
• Detailed competitor analysis and actionable insights
• An SEO strategy that delivers first‑page rankings for priority keywords
• Regularly refreshed PPC copy in collaboration with the National Marketing Manager

What we’re looking for

• A recognised Digital Marketing qualification (e.g., CIM or equivalent)
• A genuine passion for digital marketing, analytics, and performance optimisation
• Strong analytical skills with the ability to translate data into clear actions
• A proactive, driven mindset with the determination to make things happen
• Excellent relationship‑building skills and the ability to collaborate across teams
• A natural curiosity for digital trends, tools, and emerging opportunities

This is an exciting opportunity to take ownership of digital performance within a growing, purpose‑driven organisation. You’ll work closely with senior leaders, influence strategy, and help shape the future of our digital marketing approach.
