The Opportunity

This role reports to the Head of Marketing who acts as the subject matter expert within the UKIMEA MCBD Operations team which includes the disciplines of marketing, internal and external communications, public affairs and visual communications.

Members of the Operations team are aligned (but not dedicated) to defined Portfolios and Geographies and will work regularly with the same Portfolio and Geography.  Where resourcing demands it, members will work with other Portfolios/Geographies and support region-wide projects and activities.

You will work in a matrix structure whereby the Head of Marketing is accountable for the line management of the discipline, with the resourcing, training, development and professional standards of the team.

The Business Partners define the annual plan of activity and are accountable for the successful delivery of the plan, with ad hoc activities. Therefore, on a day-to-day basis, you will work collaboratively with the Business Partners alongside other members of the Operations team to deliver activities defined by them.

This role will be aligned to Climate Sustainability Services (CSS), with the role holder working closely with the Business Partner for Climate Sustainability Services.

The purpose of the Senior Marketing Co-ordinator role is to support the design of marketing strategies and campaigns plans, as well as deliver and evaluate their success.

The role will have day-to-day remit for the smart execution of tactical activity aligned to the strategic marketing plans that maximises return on investment.

The successful candidate will also work closely with the wider marketing team to ensure activity is well planned and comprehended and aligns to the broader region’s strategic priorities. The role will ensure brand coherence across all activity.

The post holder will be developed professionally through the UKIMEA MCBD network.

At Arup, you belong to an extraordinary collective – in which we encourage individuality to thrive. Our strength comes from how we respect, share and connect our diverse experiences, perspectives and ideas.

You will have the opportunity do socially useful work that has meaning – to Arup, to your career, to our members and to the clients and communities we serve.

We are looking for people who:

  • Have strong partnership skills and ability to thrive in a fast-paced matrixed, professional services organisation.
  • Have the ability to partner, build positive relationships and influence a broad range of stakeholders – from marketing, public affairs and vis comms colleagues to senior subject experts.
