- Creating engaging, creative and on-brand content designed to increase audience engagement and grow the company's social media presence.
- Developing content for social media, eCommerce platforms and wider digital marketing campaigns.
- Assisting the Marketing Manager in delivering the annual marketing plan.
- Creating and coordinating marketing materials including brochures, flyers and packaging.
- Supporting the organisation of trade shows, exhibitions, events and internal marketing projects.
- Assisting with marketing administration and supporting budget tracking where required.
