About Us

Kervan Gıda UK Ltd is a leading confectionery manufacturer and the UK arm of a global confectionery business. The company is home to the Bebeto brand in the UK and works closely with major UK retailers on private label confectionery development. With an ambitious growth agenda, we have a bold and increasing pipeline that aims to bring excitement and point of difference to the confectionery category in the UK.

Role Overview

We’re looking for an organised, creative and hands‑on Marketing Assistant to help bring Bebeto’s marketing activity to life. This is a varied execution‑focused role, combining the creation of engaging short‑form social content and day‑to‑day community and e‑commerce customer care with practical support for campaigns, product launches, PR, sampling and events.

Working closely with our Digital Marketing Manager and wider marketing team, you will turn approved briefs and plans into high‑quality content and well‑organised activity. You’ll enjoy being on the ground making things happen, whether that means filming a Reel, helping run an event or resolving a customer query.

Key Responsibilities

Social Content Production & Publishing

  • Film, edit and prepare engaging short‑form content for TikTok, Instagram Reels and other relevant channels, in line with agreed briefs and brand guidelines.
  • Use AI‑assisted briefs, scripts and caption drafts as a starting point, bringing your own creative judgement and ensuring content is accurate and on‑brand.
  • Schedule and publish approved social content; organise content assets and support the smooth running of the social calendar.
  • Support social selling activity, including TikTok Lives or on‑camera product demonstrations when required.

Community Engagement & Customer Service

  • Monitor and respond to messages, comments, reviews and customer enquiries across social and e‑commerce channels in a friendly, timely and professional way.
  • Help resolve order‑related questions and customer issues, escalating more complex cases as appropriate and following agreed service standards.
  • Spot recurring questions, feedback and community trends, and share relevant insights with the team.

Campaigns, PR, Sampling & Events

  • Provide hands‑on support for seasonal brand campaigns, new product launches, sampling activity, retailer activations and local promotions.
  • Assist with event logistics, preparation of materials, samples, stock, giveaways, guest lists and on‑the‑day setup and delivery.
  • Support PR activity and influencer seeding through sample dispatch, coordination, tracking and administrative follow‑up.
  • Help coordinate simple trade marketing creative assets and promotional materials, working with colleagues and suppliers to meet agreed deadlines.

Reporting & Administration

  • Maintain clear trackers, calendars, asset libraries and records of campaign and content activity.
  • Pull together basic social, customer service and campaign results, highlighting learnings and opportunities for improvement.
  • Support the wider marketing team with day‑to‑day administration and ad‑hoc brand activity as priorities change.

Key Requirements

Skills & Experience

  • Around 1–3 years’ experience in marketing, social media, content creation, community management or e‑commerce, with examples of work you can share.
  • Confident filming and editing vertical video for platforms such as TikTok and Instagram, with a good eye for strong, engaging content.
  • Excellent written communication and customer service skills, with an approachable, professional tone.
  • Comfortable using content creation, editing and scheduling tools; familiarity with Adobe, Canva, CapCut or similar platforms is useful.
  • Organised, detail‑oriented and able to manage competing tasks and deadlines.
  • Curious about AI‑assisted marketing workflows and comfortable checking and improving draft work rather than relying on it uncritically.

Personal Qualities

  • A positive, practical self‑starter who enjoys getting stuck in and helping others.
  • Creative and confident sharing ideas, while happy to work to an approved brief autonomously.
  • People‑focused, adaptable and comfortable in a busy, varied role; willing to be on camera when needed.
  • Enthusiastic about consumer brands, confectionery and creating memorable experiences.

What we can Offer

  • Competitive salary of £28,000–£32,000 depending on experience
  • Free gym membership
  • Performance based bonus
  • Exposure to international manufacturing operations
  • Collaborative UK‑based team environment
  • A hands‑on opportunity to contribute to a growing confectionery brand with ambitious campaigns and product launches.
  • A varied role across content, consumers, events and wider marketing activity, with opportunities to develop your skills.
  • A collaborative team environment where ideas, initiative and a can‑do attitude are valued.

If you enjoy making creative ideas happen and love connecting with people, we’d love to hear from you.
