Leeds, Leeds, United Kingdom Leeds Beckett University Full time

Leeds Beckett University has a fantastic opportunity to deliver an exciting and innovative Knowledge Transfer Partnership (KTP) project to optimise strategic marketing and decision-making within Freight Agency Ltd – a Bradford-based SME offering a range of freight-forwarding solutions for over 30 years.

Freight Agency provides pick-up service to clients across the UK with onward freight-forwarding, primarily shipping to West Africa.

We encourage applications from a self-starter with strong communication and project management skills, and a credible experience in strategic marketing or international business development. Freight Agency operate in a fast-moving market, and the successful candidate will need to bring a pragmatic, agile and responsive capability.

This exciting role is supported by academic experts from Leeds Beckett University's Leeds Business School who will help you develop and embed new strategic marketing and decision-making capabilities aligned to key markets and sectors, to facilitate Freight Agency's strategic growth ambitions. You will be based full-time at the company premises and you will feel, to all intents and purposes, part of the Freight Agency team.

The project offers the opportunity to embed strategic marketing and decision-making capabilities, underpinned by necessary cultural change in the business, delivering an innovative and impactful legacy for this growth-oriented SME.

We need an enthusiastic, self-motivated person bringing not only a Bachelor's degree (2.1 or higher) in Marketing, Business Management, International Business or Business Development & Strategy (or similar).

Preference will be given to an associate who also has a higher level professional or academic qualification in a related area e.g. Chartered Institute of Marketing Diploma; Strategic Marketing; MBA or International Business Masters degree.

You will need credible project management capabilities to manage a multi-faceted project. You will be well supported by academic experts at Leeds Beckett and colleagues at Freight Agency, but you need to be curious, excited about the project challenges and prepared to involve yourself in all aspects of a business.

This will be a challenging role and for the right candidate will present an excellent opportunity to make a tangible difference to the business, grow their own skill set and experience and with a very realistic chance of permanent employment at the end of the project.

To arrange an informal discussion about this post, please contact Rosi Newman at

The project provides dedicated budgets to support training and development (£2k pa) alongside opportunities to access the university's pension scheme, staff benefits and discounts, staff training and development programmes as well as high level support from expert Leeds Beckett academics. The university also offers candidates the opportunity to study for a higher degree (MRes, MPhil or PhD) with a fee waiver in place.

There is a travel and subsistence budget included in the project.

Closing date: Thursday 5th September :59)
