Junior Content Executive

Location: Wilmslow, Cheshire (Hybrid)

Working Hours: 8:30am – 5:00pm

We are The Citation Group - a global group of businesses helping SMEs grow and thrive. We don’t do micro-management – instead, we empower, support and innovate!

We’re on the hunt for a creative content enthusiast to help propel our fast-paced – and growing – Group Marketing team to a new level. We want our content to stand out from the crowd, while offering real value. This position is ideal for someone with a few years of content and copywriting experience under their belt, who wants to join a marketing team that puts content front and centre.

Working alongside our wider content team, this role is an opportunity to develop career-building skills – from beavering away on blogs to putting a shine on sales collateral – and work within an industry best-practice team.

Your creative flair will contribute towards:

• Working across a number of brands within The Citation Group to help design and execute powerful content strategies for both acquisition and nurture purposes
• Producing copy for both online and offline channels; including the website, marketing campaigns, sales collateral and videos
• Building strong relationships with internal subject matter experts
• Utilising and harnessing tools like Jasper AI appropriately for efficiency (without compromising on quality)
• Creating SEO-optimised landing page and blog content, usually working from briefs and keeping a keen eye on conversion
• Working closely and collaboratively with the graphic design team on marketing activity – including infographics, video ideas and social content
• Proofreading written work and making sure all content follows brand guidelines and tone of voice
• Collaborating closely with a team of Content Executives and a Social Media Executive to ensure we’re producing best-in-class content across the Group and sharing knowledge and successes

At Citation, we’re all about culture and values, which means it’s important for us to find someone we gel with! If you read the below and think “Yes! That’s me!” then you’ll fit in just fine:

• You thrive in fast-paced environments and can easily adapt to change
• You’re a strong team player with a ‘can-do’ attitude
• You’re comfortable liaising with key stakeholders and forging relationships
• You can manage your own time and juggle multiple projects at once – while sticking to deadlines
• You’re proactive – you’re comfortable reaching out to others and getting the ball rolling to get things done
• You’re a born wordsmith who can easily switch between styles and platforms – you make complex subjects simple and engaging and you’re all about making every word count
• You have an eye for detail and don’t mind sweating the small stuff (yes, a wrongly placed comma is important!)
• You have a passion for all things brand, content and communications – to you, the best brands are those who resonate really powerfully with their target audience

And when it comes to the technical stuff, here’s a few things we’d love to see:

• A relevant degree desired but not essential
• B2B experience desired but not essential

Here’s a taste of the perks we roll out for our extraordinary team members:

• 25 Days of Holiday + Bank: Take your well-deserved break with 25 days of holiday, plus those cherished bank holidays.
