MarTech Specialist in Wokingham - Sharper B2B Marketing

Job Description Know your way around the nuts and bolts of the latest and greatest MarTech platforms (and love helping clients make the most of their MarTech too)? Have we got a job spec for you...

Role Outline:

This role is all about providing the crucial MarTech expertise that underpins the amazing work we deliver for clients.

You’ll be working incredibly closely with the wider Sharper team to provide digital and technical expertise for both campaign build and execution. You’ll also work directly with our beloved clients, helping them effectively navigate the “Martech minefield” to drive maximum value from their investments in tech, solutions, and platforms.

It’s all to ensure we deliver top-notch work that translates into success for our clients – whatever that looks like to them.

About Us:

We’re on a mission to give our clients the fresh ideas and firepower they need to absolutely nail their B2B marketing (whilst making B2B marketing as a whole more creative, valued and commercially successful in the process).

Client’s love working with us for 3 main reasons:

1)     We’re all experienced client-side marketers. We’ve walked in their shoes. We know their world. We talk their language.
2)    We’re fearlessly creative, but we underpin EVERYTHING we do with metrics and measures of success
3)    We’re nice people and fun to work with, but we give no easy rides. We’re direct. We challenge. We ask hard questions. Because that’s what a great agency partner should do.

And we live and die by our values: Creativity, Tenacity, Fairness, and Fun. If you don’t think these 4 things are important then you’re not going to enjoy working here.

We’re also proud members of the Selbey Anderson family, the agency group that finds and unlocks hidden value in people, agencies, and brands.

So, does Sharper sound like something you want to be part of? Then read on…

About You:

We’re small so we can’t afford to carry any passengers. Which means we have to hire first and foremost on attitude and personality.

Experience and skills are obviously useful, but they can be gained or learned. If you’ve got the right approach and attitude though, you’ll be on to a winner.

So, what does that “right approach” and attitude look like?

·      You’ll be “can do”. You need to be able to pick up the initiative and get stuff done, no matter what kind of curve balls come flying at you.

·      You’ll be a problem solver. If things crop up that get in the way you won’t just accept them and say, “oh well”. You’ll be coming up with the ideas and different approaches to get around, under and over those challenges.

·      You’ll be inquisitive and empathetic, always looking for new ideas and new ways to do things that connect with people. And you’ll bring those to the table for the benefit of Sharper and our clients.

·      You’ll be confident (but definitely not arrogant). You need to know yourself, know what you’re good at and back yourself in doing it. But you’ll also be self-aware and humble enough to know where the line is.

·      You’ll want to crack on with your career. We want to see you be a success, but we also know you’re not going to stay with us forever. If we can help you on the way and we all have some fun doing it, then that’s win-win.

As we said, knowledge and skills can be gained or learned, but if you’ve got some of the following in your back pocket that’ll stand you in good stead.

Experience:

·     2-5 years B2B client-side experience ideally as a Martech exec/manager, CRM exec/manager, Database exec/manager, Marketing exec/manager, Digital campaign exec/manager or similar. You will need to know what it’s like in our client’s world.
·     Marketing automation and tech. You will need to be up to speed with best practice and unafraid to get stuck into CRM systems, email platforms, marketing automation tools, etc. Especially enterprise level tools like Marketo, Hubspot, Eloqua and the like.
·     Campaign creation, build and execution. You’ll know your way around (or at the very least the theory behind) how to create and run multi-channel marketing campaigns that make an impact with people.
·     If you’ve got a marketing qualification (CIM, IDM, Mini-MBA, etc) that’s pretty cool, but it’s not a deal breaker.

Skills:
·     Analytical problem solving. You need to be able to understand and interpret data, approaching things in a logical, systematic manner to find answers to questions and client challenges.
·     Clear communicator. You’ll be working across multiple campaigns/projects talking to a variety of people so you’ve got to be clear and consistent with your communications – both written and verbal
·     Able to handle complexity. With multiple projects/campaigns on the go at any one time you’ve got to have the mental agility to be able to switch from one thing to the next and be comfortable managing your own energy and time to do so.

What you’ll get from us:

If you join us as our brand-new MarTech Specialist we’ll give you:

·     Our undying love and affection
·     A £35,000 salary
·     28 days holiday a year
·     Healthcare scheme
·     Pension scheme (on passing probation)
·     Regular team socials and celebrations. When we “win” we celebrate it well
·     The tech and equipment you’ll need to get things done.
·     Flexible working. We’ve got an HQ office in Wokingham. but you don’t have to work there. Truthfully, we don’t really mind how or where you work, it’s much more about getting the job done for our clients.
·     Profit share scheme and regular salary reviews (tied to company performance)
·     A home to grow, develop and become the best version of you.

Sound like it's a good fit? Great! But hold your horses. You'll need to know the secret code word, which is PROFITEROLE. Make sure you mention it if/when you speak to a member of the Sharper team
