About the Role
We have an exciting opportunity for a Digital Marketing Assistant to join our Digital team and help bring the work of Help for Heroes to life across our digital channels.
This is a brilliant opportunity for someone looking to build their career in digital marketing, with the chance to gain hands-on experience across social media, email, websites, paid search, SEO, analytics and more. No two days will be quite the same; you could be creating and scheduling social content one day, supporting a digital campaign the next, or digging into performance data to understand what’s working.
You’ll work closely with colleagues across the Digital team and wider organisation, helping us reach and engage more people, raise awareness of our work, and ultimately make a difference to veterans and their families.
Key Responsibilities
- Creating engaging digital content for our social media, website and email channels.
- Scheduling and publishing organic social media content, helping to keep our channels timely, engaging and aligned with our wider activity.
- Supporting digital campaigns and content opportunities, working with teams across Help for Heroes to bring stories, key moments and campaigns to life.
- Helping to optimise our website and digital activity, working alongside colleagues and external agencies to continually improve the supporter experience.
- Supporting digital performance reporting, using data and insights to understand how our channels and campaigns are performing.
- Getting involved across the wider Digital team, gaining experience in areas including social media, email marketing, paid search, SEO, website development, CRO and analytics.
