Brand Marketing Manager - Lincolnshire

Laser Red are looking for a Brand Marketing Manager to join the team!

Reporting to our Managing Director, you'll be diving deep into the marketing world with us. You'll take the reins, guiding our company marketing journey with a bit of flair and minimal hand-holding. B2B experience is essential, ideally at an agency or a fast-paced company before. Got a handle on thought leadership and a feel for what our customers are into? Perfect, you're just who we're after.

We're searching for someone to take the lead on our internal brand marketing front. Your mission? Weave our channels together, plot out a game plan, keep tabs on the budget, and chat with the Sales Team about those all-important growth targets. You'll have total accountability for the activities in your area. If you've played around with CRMs and are a bit of a lead-gen wizard, that's awesome. Familiar with paid social or PPC? Big tick from us. While anyone can post on LinkedIn, we need a pro who can mastermind a sharp content strategy, dish out impactful whitepapers, and roll out events that serve up fresh insights. If that sounds like your jam, we're eager to chat!

At the heart of this gig is shaping and owning the Laser Red marketing game plan. But it's not just about planning; it's about rolling up your sleeves and bringing that plan to life in the market, snagging top-notch leads and boosting our brand along the way. We need someone who can not only dream up the strategies but also hustle solo to make them happen.

OUR VALUES

Integrity & Trust: We believe in doing the right thing, even when no one is watching. We're transparent, we play fair, stay honest, and have each other's backs.

Motivated Passion: We love what we do, and we believe in enjoying the journey. We bring the fun, the energy, and the creativity. We relish sharing skills and celebrating each other's wins.

Proactive Approach: We're always thinking two steps ahead, spotting problems before they pop up, and finding effective ways around them. We're dedicated to making the complex simple and the difficult manageable.

Agile Flexibility: In a digital world, change is the only constant. We don’t just roll with it – we embrace it. We're organised, but never rigid. We strive to adapt and thrive.

Collaborative Spirit: We're one big, slightly quirky team. We chat, laugh, brainstorm, and sometimes have disagreements – but it's always in the spirit of getting to the best solution. We achieve more together than we ever could alone. Everyone's voice counts.

Tenacious Improvement: We’re all about levelling up and being better than we were yesterday. We learn from every project, every success, and every setback and use these insights to refine our skills and approach.

That's us in a nutshell. At Laser Red, we're all about creating amazing digital work with a lot of heart, a dash of humour, and heaps of passion.
