We are seeking a graduate digital marketing executive to join our growing marketing team, and assist the marketing manager in conceiving, planning, executing and evaluating campaigns for a wide variety of purposes, formats and media. You will be working across multiple marketing disciplines, including advertising (e.g. print, SEO and PPC), online and offline events, copywriting and design, UX/UI design, social media, and more.
At NewsNow, the marketing team is also responsible for running and evaluating the performance of our programmatic advertising operation, and you will be expected to play a role in this.
We're a small tight-knit team at NewsNow, so in addition to the above, you'll also support and collaborate with members of our editorial and development teams to help us achieve our business objectives.
This is a great opportunity for a bright graduate in marketing, advertising, or business management with marketing, to build on their theoretical understanding of online and offline marketing.
You are expected to possess excellent communication skills, good memory and meticulous attention to detail. Prior experience in marketing and skills to analyse, evaluate and report on marketing activity would be an advantage, and quick learning is essential.
The ideal candidate will have a creative flair and knowledge of popular design tools such as Figma, Photoshop and InDesign.
And finally, you must possess a positive, can-do attitude, and always look to do the job to the best of your ability.
You’re also someone who:
Is comfortable with fully remote working and being trained remotely
Is confident and articulate about what they know and open about what they don't
Will thrive in a small, open and collaborative team, where the best ideas can come from anyone.
Open: we share and collaborate within and across departments
Rigorous: We like to be clear about what we're doing, and why. Experimentation and peer-review are in our DNA
One team, one vision: no office politics
An appreciative environment: expect to hear ‘thanks’ a lot
Room to grow: development of skills and responsibilities is encouraged and rewarded
Virtual: we are today a fully-remote company with occasional in-person get-togethers
Family-friendly and flexible: we understand sometimes personal needs come first
