PA. Bringing Ingenuity to Life.

PA’s purpose – our belief in the power of ingenuity to create a positive human future — is nowhere more relevant than in our work with the public sector. And our purpose runs deep. We’ve been living and breathing it for eight decades, rooted in our work with the public sector.

This is an opportunity for an experienced, strategic marketer to join our team and lead on the design and execution of an impactful, purpose-led marketing strategy to deliver the growth objectives of our public services sector.

We are looking for a curious and resilient team player with strong commercial acumen and a passion for achieving outstanding results in a purpose-driven, professional services environment.

Working as part of the global marketing team, you will support all marketing activity within the sector, using elements across the marketing mix, alongside specialists in PR, thought leadership, digital and our in-house creative design agency.

You’ll draw on consulting sector experts, knowledge of best practice insight and communications to ensure the delivery of an inspiring, ambitious, and impactful marketing strategy and plan.

Responsibilities include:

• Strategy and planning – identify marketing opportunities and sector insights to develop integrated marketing campaigns which raise the profile of the PA brand, position us the go-to partner for end-to-end innovation and generate demand for our services.
• Integrated marketing communications – execute integrated marketing communications campaigns across virtual and physical events, website, PR, social media channels, advertising, sales collateral, demonstrations, awards, associations, etc.
• Thought leadership development – work with subject matter experts to evolve and package our content so that they can be communicated effectively in target accounts and the general market.
• Brand management – ensure that all marketing activities promote and develop the PA brand, proactively acting as ambassador for PA’s purpose and brand.
• Marketing administration – maintain accurate and timely budgeting and KPI reporting at sector, geographic and global marketing levels.
• Client relationship management – capture and track client contact information and grow the contact database. Build and deliver specific account activity and issue-led programmes.
• Global marketing – Participation and leadership of wider marketing initiatives as required and from time to time.

Flexible working – We are guided by our client work and needs; however, you have autonomy to manage your time and diary to suit your work/life balance.

Qualifications

• Minimum 5 years’ experience in B2B marketing including digital and social media, thought leadership and content, event delivery, email marketing, account-based marketing, etc.
• An all-round, generalist marketer equally comfortable with high-level planning of marketing campaigns, as well as hands-on execution of marketing tactics such as writing social media and contact data entry.
• Self-starter with ability to manage multiple projects and deadlines.
• Team-player able to successfully build strong working relationships across all levels of the business.
• Positive attitude, appetite to learn and focus on strong teamwork.
• Excellent attention to detail and written communication.
