Marketing Executive 2026

We’re looking for a motivated and organised Marketing Executive to join our team on a 6-month fixed-term contract, working on one of the UK’s most well-known brands in marketing.

In this role, you’ll support the delivery of multichannel campaigns that drive engagement, generate leads, and ultimately deliver event registrations—primarily for Marketing Week’s flagship Festival of Marketing.

The role

This is a hands-on role where you’ll get stuck into the day-to-day delivery of campaigns across email, social, web and paid channels. You’ll be building emails, updating web pages, creating your own assets in Canva as well as briefing designers on larger pieces, scheduling social posts, and helping bring campaign activity to life—making sure everything runs smoothly and on time.

You’ll work closely with the wider marketing team to coordinate activity, keep campaigns on track, and support reporting so we can understand what’s driving leads, registrations, and revenue. Your work will play a key role in supporting the delegate sales team, helping to turn marketing activity into commercial results.

We’re looking for someone who enjoys getting things done, has a strong eye for detail, and is excited by the idea of working on a large-scale industry event. You should be comfortable working at pace, juggling multiple tasks, and contributing to a busy, results-driven campaign environment from day one.
