Why this role matters

Rockingham’s marketing model is built on the idea that good marketing should not just make a hotel look active. It should help the business perform better. This role is central to that. The Marketing Manager helps turn strategy into delivery, keeps standards high and ensures the detail gets done properly across every active account whether on our client projects or our own branding. Clients trust us with important decisions. That responsibility matters.

• Ongoing professional development and investment in learning.
• Exposure to a diverse portfolio of independent hotels and hospitality businesses.

• Opportunity to work across a wide variety of commercial marketing projects rather than a single brand.
• Regular team planning days, collaboration sessions and company social events.
• A supportive, ambitious environment where new ideas are encouraged and ownership is valued.

Career Progression

As Rockingham continues to grow, we are committed to creating opportunities for our people to grow with us. Success in this role will be measured not only by the delivery of excellent work for our clients, but also by the contribution made to the wider success of the business. As our client portfolio and services continue to expand, there will be opportunities to take on greater responsibility and develop your career within the company.
