Marketing Assistant
We are looking for an enthusiastic and creative Marketing Assistant to help develop our marketing presence during a period of growth and modernisation. This role would suit a recent graduate or someone at an early stage in their marketing career who wants practical experience, varied work and the opportunity to make a visible contribution.
The Role
Working closely with senior management and colleagues across the business, you will help showcase our projects, people, capabilities and facilities. You will support the launch and ongoing development of our new website, create content for LinkedIn and other digital channels, and develop marketing materials that explain what we do and the value we offer our customers.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Your responsibilities will include:
- Creating engaging written, photographic and video content.
- Managing and developing the company’s LinkedIn presence.
- Supporting the development and maintenance of our website.
- Producing project case studies, news articles and other marketing materials.
- Helping to plan marketing campaigns for key industries and services.
- Gathering information from engineering, production and quality teams and turning it into content.
- Researching markets, competitors and potential customers.
- Monitoring marketing performance and recommending improvements.
- Supporting exhibitions, recruitment campaigns and company events.
About You
We are looking for someone who is creative, organised and proactive, with strong written English and the confidence to speak with colleagues across the business.
A qualification in marketing, digital marketing, business, communications or a related subject would be beneficial, but we also welcome applicants with relevant practical experience and examples of their work.
An interest in photography, video, social media or digital content would be particularly valuable. You should be comfortable managing several tasks, keen to bring forward ideas and willing to learn about our products and the industries we serve. Previous engineering experience is not required. Curiosity and the ability to turn technical information into content that people can understand are more important.

What You Can Expect
This is a varied, hands-on role with genuine responsibility and the opportunity to shape how Charles Thompson presents itself to customers, prospective employees and the wider engineering industry.
You will receive support and guidance from senior management and experienced colleagues, while being encouraged to develop your skills, contribute your own ideas and take ownership of projects.
How to Apply
Please send your CV and a short covering note to lwhite@charles-thompson.co.uk, explaining your interest in the role. If you have examples of content, campaigns or other marketing work you have created through study, employment or personal projects, we would be pleased to see them.
