Marketing Manager

Marketing Manager for an enterprise software company, part of a larger group that owns 3 software businesses and is very successful in their niche software area.

The team will consist of the Marketing Manager, 2 Campaign Managers and 2 Tele-Sales Executives. Starting salary to £50k plus benefits, based near Solihull.

This role will put you in a position within the leadership team of an award-winning software consultancy with responsibility for planning and budget control over the company's on-line and off-line marketing strategy. It requires someone with initiative, who can provide a full mix of marketing from traditional to digital, to social media, to email marketing, to brand management, copy writing, trade shows and events, and execute a strong marketing plan.

Currently there is only one Campaign Manager. So part of your role will be to build the team of staff in the marketing department. They have had an interim Marketing Director who has been very strong on digital strategy, blogging and social media, and the company has a very strong presence in the digital platforms. Moving forward, the role of Marketing Manager is to also build the traditional marketing channels, especially tele-sales and effective email campaigns.

Experience of marketing management and running campaigns for a software company to B2B clients is essential, in an enterprise scale application software company.

This requires an enthusiastic, proactive and dynamic Marketing Manager.
