Email Marketing Executive

We recognise the value in having people with a variety of backgrounds, experience and skills in our business. That means the role requirements here should be seen as a guide, not a checklist. If you have more, less or different experiences, but really relevant skills, we’d love to hear from you.

We work flexibly and will help you to find a healthy balance of remote working and time in our fantastic Southampton office, collaborating, taking part in events and getting to know people that makes working with us so rewarding. We welcome the opportunity to discuss reduced hours and job share arrangements.

The Role

The Email Marketing Executive, part of the Guest Nurture team, will take on the challenge of six areas: planning, designing, building, testing, sending and then finally investigating the performance to build on next time around.

• Planning will require analyse of past communications and delving into the insights to gain greater knowledge of the requirement of the email.
• Designing, includes choosing the right imagery, image manipulation, as well as adding animation where possible (either in code or gifs) that creates an engaging email.
• Building, using templates to create the emails. You will need to amend templates using HTML/CSS where necessary.
• Testing the email on key devices including browser, tablet and mobile.
• Sending the email to large number of people, so confidence to do this is important.
• At the end, working with insights team, the Email Marketer will investigate its performance to interpret how the communication could be improved on next time around.
• It’s a continuous process that calls for a sharp analytical mind, just as much as it does a creative one

Our role categories range from CUK15 (entry level) to CUK1 (Brand President) so you can clearly see internal development opportunities. This role is a CUK10 and is offered on a full time, permaneant basis with at least two days based in our Southampton office.
