Job Title

Marketing & Business Development Executive

An established UK-based construction marketing agency is seeking a dynamic, hands-on Marketing & Business Development Executive to become the right hand to the Founder.

This is a pivotal role within a boutique agency that partners with architects, contractors, and industrial businesses across the UK. Following a period of restructuring, the business is now lean, focused, and ready for smart, sustainable growth. The Founder is looking for one exceptional full-time professional to consolidate marketing, CRM, and client-facing responsibilities currently managed by multiple freelancers.

This role is ideal for a proactive self-starter who thrives on ownership, enjoys variety, and brings both creative marketing expertise and confident client communication skills. You will play a key part in shaping client campaigns, managing proposals, and supporting warm business development efforts — all while maintaining exceptional quality standards.

Create and schedule email marketing campaigns using Mailchimp
Write high-quality, original copy tailored to different audiences (e.g. architects vs industrial clients)

Maintain consistent tone of voice across all client communications
Ensure all copy is human-written and aligned with brand standards
Support campaign planning and implementation

Business Development & Administration (Secondary Focus)

Manage and maintain HubSpot CRM (including system migration support)
Create polished, professional proposals using Better Proposals
Conduct warm outreach calls (referral-based — no cold calling)
Run initial screening calls with prospective clients before handover to the Founder
Assist with general marketing administration and reporting
Support diary coordination and pipeline tracking

Minimum 3 years’ experience in a marketing executive or similar role
Strong experience with social media management and email marketing (Mailchimp preferred)

A portfolio of previous marketing and design work is required as part of the application.
