Interested in joining the next big thing?

This is a big brand employer who have just launched a brand new digital platform designed to take the complexities out of digital marketing for the nations wealth of SME businesses.

This is designed as an all in one platform, which removes the complexities of Facebook and Google’s advertising dashboards and a lot of the complexities and technicalities around things like setting up PPC, digital paid media campaigns, building campaign microsites and landing pages. As well as integrating an AI powered media optimisation platform and also a proprietary build neural network engine which takes the complexities out of debating creative too.

On top of making the whole thing so simple and clear, anyone can do it. It’s also underpinned by self-serve analytics tools which shows the customer exactly what’s going on. Where money is being spent and what the ROI is.

The customer also has the choice to decide whether to do it all themselves, and just pay per campaign. Or if they want either some, or complete support from the business in building, managing and reporting back on digital campaigns, much like an agency would.

They have an advantage through the connections this businesses already has in place within the UK SME market. This digital hub will be giving them new solutions to take to that largely existing customer base, adding a ton of value to businesses who either don’t understand the value of digital to them. Or just don’t have the knowledge and resources to make it a reality.

Your role will has a business development focus, prospecting customers with this new digital media solution. Then once engaged, you will become their account manager. Helping them set up and run with the tool and get value from it.

Sticking with them through their journey with the business. You’ll be working as subject matter support for paid media campaigns. So in reality, you will need to have some knowledge of either Paid Social, PPC or Display (or at least a basic understanding of digital paid media channels) to be able to engage with the client at the appropriate level and provide guidance around campaign builds and execution.

This sales side of this role will be a mixture of warm and cold work. But there’s going to be a lot of support in the form of their marketing function. Who are delivering lead generation and inbound marketing campaigns on the business’ behalf.

This role carries a target, which is why there’s a generous bonus scheme of up to 30%. That target is largely centred around conversions.

So if you want to join an employer where the brand name alone is going to open doors for you, AND be part of something really new and exciting which is going to be entering the market at pace. Apply now to find out more about this one.
