3What this role really is

This entry-level role supports the day-to-day work of global marketing campaigns, from reports to launch-ready assets.

4What you'd actually use

The tools this job runs on, and how well you'd need to know each one.

Marketo / Eloqua (Marketing Automation) Basic

Building basic email campaigns from templates, managing simple smart lists, scheduling email sends under supervision.

Salesforce (CRM) Basic

Running pre-built reports to track campaign member status, viewing lead/contact records, updating basic campaign information.

Tableau / Power BI (Analytics & BI) Basic

Navigating existing dashboards to pull specific campaign performance data points (e.g., website visits, lead sources).

Adobe Experience Manager (AEM) / Sitecore (Content/Experience) Basic

Updating content on existing web pages, uploading assets to the Digital Asset Manager (DAM), executing simple content changes.

Jira / Asana (Project Management) Intermediate

Managing personal tasks, updating ticket statuses, following established project plans and sprint cycles, collaborating on task comments.

5What you get to decide, and how that grows

Power in a job isn't your title. It's what you're allowed to decide. Here's how it grows as you move up.

The choiceComing in Where you are nowThe step above
Campaign Asset Approval No authority. You'll prepare assets according to briefs and send them for review to your specialist or regional teams. You'll flag any obvious issues. Can approve minor asset changes (e.g., typos, formatting) if they align with established brand guidelines. Major changes or strategic shifts require manager approval. Can approve final campaign assets for launch within their owned programmes, ensuring alignment with global strategy and local nuances. Consults Director on significant creative departures.
Campaign Schedule Changes No authority. You'll inform your specialist of any potential delays you identify. Any changes need specialist approval. Can propose minor adjustments to campaign timelines (e.g., shifting an email send by a day) if it doesn't impact other dependencies. Needs manager awareness. Can make tactical adjustments to campaign schedules within their programme to optimise performance or react to market changes, keeping relevant stakeholders informed.

6How you'll be judged

The scoreboard, and what is not on it. The hard targets, how often each is actually looked at, and the quiet signals that never reach a dashboard.

Campaign Asset Delivery Rate
The percentage of campaign assets (e.g., ad copy, images, landing page content) you prepare and deliver to regional teams or agencies on schedule.
Target · 95%+ on-time delivery

If you're responsible for getting 20 pieces of ad copy translated and approved for the German market, we'd expect 19 of those to be ready by the agreed deadline.

Data Accuracy for Reports
The error rate in the data you pull for campaign performance reports or lead lists.
Target · <1% error rate

If you pull a list of 1,000 leads for an email campaign, we'd expect no more than 10 of those leads to have incorrect data (e.g., wrong email address, missing company name).

Project Plan Updates
How consistently and accurately you update campaign project plans (e.g., in Jira or Asana) with task statuses and completion dates.
Target · 90% of tasks updated within 24 hours of status change

If a creative asset is approved on Tuesday, you'd update its status in the project plan by Wednesday, reflecting the new stage.

Email Campaign Deployment Support
The percentage of email campaigns you help set up (e.g., loading content, setting send times) that deploy without technical issues.
Target · 98% error-free deployment

You assist with 50 email deployments in a month; we'd expect no more than one to have a technical glitch like a broken link or incorrect segmentation.

Proactive Problem Spotting
Identifying potential issues or roadblocks in campaign execution before they become bigger problems, and bringing them to your specialist's attention.
  • You flag an upcoming deadline conflict with a holiday in a specific region, or notice a discrepancy in a creative brief before it goes to the agency. Your specialist often says, 'Good catch!'
Learning & Application
How quickly you pick up new processes, tools, and marketing concepts, and then apply them to your daily tasks.
  • You ask fewer repeat questions over time, you start suggesting improvements to routine tasks, or you successfully complete a new type of task after only one or two walkthroughs. You're keen to learn, and it shows.
Team Collaboration
How effectively you work with your immediate team and other departments, responding to requests and sharing information clearly.
  • You respond to team messages promptly, you offer help when your workload allows, and other team members say you're easy to work with. You're seen as a reliable pair of hands.

7Would you like it

Both sides. What people enjoy, and what grinds them down.

What people enjoy
Seeing Your Work Make an Impact

You'll get a real kick out of seeing a campaign you helped set up go live across different countries. Knowing your efforts contributed to something tangible and visible on a global scale.

You helped traffic all the creative for a new product launch. When you see the ads live in Paris, Berlin, and Tokyo, you feel a sense of accomplishment.

Learning and Growing

You're motivated by the opportunity to soak up knowledge about global marketing, different cultures, and how a big organisation works. You want to master new tools and processes.

You're excited when your specialist shows you a new way to segment an audience in Marketo, and you immediately try to apply it to your next task.

Being a Valued Team Member

You enjoy being part of a supportive team where your contributions, even the smaller ones, are recognised. You like helping others and being seen as a reliable support.

Your specialist thanks you for catching a mistake that would have caused a huge delay, and you feel appreciated for your keen eye.

What frustrates people
  • Chasing people for information or approvals, especially across different time zones.
  • Dealing with messy data that needs a lot of cleaning before you can use it.
  • Doing repetitive tasks that feel a bit like 'admin' but are crucial for campaign execution.
  • Seeing your carefully prepared assets get changed at the last minute, meaning you have to re-do work.
  • Not always understanding the 'why' behind every task, especially early on.
What this role does not give you
  • High-level strategic decision-making or budget ownership.
  • Immediate creative control over campaign messaging or visual design.
  • Extensive direct client or external partner management (beyond basic coordination).
  • A 'set it and forget it' routine; priorities can shift, and you'll need to adapt.
  • A quiet, solitary work environment; you'll be interacting with people a lot.

8Who you work with

This role directly supports the efficiency and execution quality of our global marketing campaigns. Your work ensures that campaign assets are delivered correctly and on time to regional teams and external partners. Getting this right means our campaigns launch effectively, helping to build brand awareness and generate leads worldwide. Get it wrong, and we face delays, inconsistent messaging, and wasted budget. It's foundational work, really.

Inside the business
  • Global Marketing Specialists
  • Regional Marketing Teams (e.g., EMEA, APAC)
  • Marketing Operations
  • Creative Services
Outside the business
  • Creative Agencies (for asset trafficking)
  • Translation Vendors

9What you need before you start

Not a wish list. The things you would be expected to already have.

  • A genuine interest in marketing and how businesses reach customers globally.
  • Basic proficiency with common office software (e.g., Microsoft Office Suite, especially Excel for data organisation).
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills in English.
  • A strong willingness to learn, ask questions, and take on new challenges.
  • The ability to follow instructions carefully and work systematically.

This is where the work is heading, and the higher pay with it. Get fluent here and the shift stops being a threat and starts being your edge.

Working with AI on the job

Working with AI

Where AI is starting to help

Let's be real, a lot of marketing work involves repetitive tasks and sifting through data. AI isn't here to replace you, but it's brilliant at taking the tedious bits off your plate, freeing you up to learn the more interesting stuff. Think of it as your digital assistant.

Even at an entry level, you'll find AI tools can seriously boost your productivity. We're talking about speeding up content adaptation, getting quicker insights from data, and even helping you draft those tricky emails. It's about working smarter, not harder, right from the start.

First-Draft Content & Email Generation

Use generative AI (like ChatGPT or Claude) to get a head start on drafting emails, social media captions, or even initial versions of internal communications. You'll provide the key points, and it'll give you a structured draft to refine, saving you ages staring at a blank screen.

Basic Data Analysis & Summarisation

Feed simple datasets or report summaries into AI tools to quickly identify trends, summarise key findings, or even generate initial bullet points for a presentation. It won't replace deep analysis, but it's brilliant for getting a quick overview and saving time on manual data interpretation.

Campaign Asset Glocalization Support

While full translation is handled by vendors, AI tools can help you quickly check for obvious cultural faux pas in ad copy or suggest alternative phrasing for different regions. It's a quick sanity check before things go to the pros, helping you learn about cultural nuances too.

Meeting Prep & Note Taking

AI can help you quickly summarise long email threads before a meeting, or even transcribe and summarise meeting notes afterwards. This means less time on admin and more time understanding what was actually discussed, which is a huge win.
