• Attending customer meetings.

You will be involved with marketing:

• Helping to create simple marketing materials and posts and supporting the business with online marketing activities.
• Gathering content from the business where appropriate and helping to maintain the company’s social media presence.
• Assisting with promotional campaigns and other marketing activities.

Ask yourself:

• Are you someone who is confident and outgoing, comfortable speaking to customers on the telephone, able to communicate clearly and professionally?
• Friendly and approachable, organised and reliable?
• Keen to learn and develop new skills?
• Comfortable using computers and willing to learn new software and able to work well as part of a team?
• Professional and customer-focused positive, enthusiastic and willing to get involved in a variety of tasks?
