• Performance marketing fundamentals and analytics

• Using tools such as CRM systems, spreadsheets and reporting dashboards

What we’re looking for

• Is genuinely interested in marketing, advertising and digital media
• Enjoys learning how brands drive attention, engagement and conversion
• Is organised, reliable and pays attention to detail
• Communicates clearly (written and verbal)
• Is comfortable with numbers and data (e.g., spreadsheets, performance metrics)
• Can manage multiple tasks and meet deadlines
• Is proactive, takes ownership, and enjoys working as part of a team

What we offer

• A supportive, fast‑paced agency environment with exposure to real client work
• Mentoring and development from experienced marketers
• Opportunity to build a portfolio across content, social, web and reporting

Training to be provided

An advertising and media executive will help with the day to day progress of the whole advertising process, from receiving the brief from the marketing team, including objectives, budget and timescales, through to the measurement of how effective the advertisement has been. In their daily work, they will interact with many other people, processes and systems. (For example the client, 3rd party suppliers, the broad team at the agency.) They help campaigns move forward, coping with inevitable setbacks and changes in direction (some at the last minute), whilst showing collaboration and maintaining relationships with all. Usually, they report to an Account or Media Manager.

They usually specialise in one of two parts of the advertising process: the first is the process of producing the advertisement (creative); the second is the process of distributing the advertisement (media). Apprentices must therefore complete the core apprenticeship and one of these options.
