Senior Marketing Executive, Penguin Press

3 days ago

London, United Kingdom Penguin Books Limited Full time

Are you a creative marketer with an entrepreneurial spirit? Can you initiate and lead on campaigns across a diverse list of books? Could you seize on every opportunity to help create a non-fiction bestseller?

Penguin Press publishes serious and ground-breaking non-fiction across our Allen Lane, Pelican and Particular Books imprints, with bestselling authors such as Carlo Rovelli, Lea Ypi, Naomi Klein, Ha-Joon Chang, Neil MacGregor and Greta Thunberg. Press is also home to the world-famous Penguin Classics library. We’re looking for an ambitious marketer to join our award-winning team as a Senior Marketing Executive.

**The Opportunity**

Day-to-day, you’ll be working on marketing campaigns for a range of non-fiction books across history, science and politics, while supporting on broader brand projects. As part of a busy team, you’ll be liaising with authors, editors, publicists and sales colleagues to deliver campaigns that captivate the attention of different audiences.

From campaign to brand marketing, you’ll bring new expertise to support our growth as a team, using your initiative to seek out ways to maximise opportunities for our books and build relationships across the trade. You’ll bring strong digital marketing skills and an understanding of online audiences.

Within the marketing team, this role reports to the Head of Campaigns and is also a key contact for our International Sales team. You’ll work closely with International Sales to ensure strategic support for our books across territories, including being an important conduit for moments in the international sales calendar, and sales conferences.

**Core Responsibilities**
- Manage all aspects of a marketing campaign from initial pitch to delivery
- Engage different audiences online through organic and paid media platforms
- Drive marketing conversations with colleagues across Penguin Press and Penguin Random House to support our international marketing and allocated campaigns
- Work with the Brand Director of Penguin Classics on the delivery of key brand projects

A passion for our books is essential, but a background in publishing is not.

This role is based in our Vauxhall Bridge Road office in Pimlico, London.

**What you can expect from us**:
**Salary**: £30,000 - £33,000 dependent on how your skills and experience align to the role, plus bonus and benefits.

Our employees are the heart of our business. We have a range of benefits to reflect our commitment to our employees, some of which are:

- 27 days paid holiday entitlement in year one (plus bank holidays), increasing a day each year up to 30 days
- Medical cover
- Life assurance
- Cycle to Work scheme
- Discounted gym membership
- Generous pension scheme
- Summer working hours (role dependent)
- Volunteering policy and charity matching
- Employee Assistance programme
- Mentoring programme
- Extended gender neutral parental leave
- Access to books and eBooks across Penguin Random House UK
- Each site has trained mental health first aiders
- We plant a tree for every new employee to our business

**Our creativity is inspired by different perspectives, so we want our culture to be one of belonging, where everyone feels welcome and where differences are celebrated.**

Please note, we are not able to accept agency CVs for this role. Any CVs sent speculatively will not be eligible for a fee.
