We're looking for a passionate marketing leader in Valencia to help propel our brand even further.
In this role, you'll lead the way on all things digital—managing our website, blog, and social media channels to make sure our story reaches far and wide.
You'll also design, develop, measure, and control advertising campaigns, all while driving direct customer acquisition.
We're looking for someone to lead marketing for the Octopus Energy domestic retail business in Spain, but there are probably some things you should know...
We don't use agencies - we really don't, not for creative, production, or even media.
We've a fabulous team of in-house designers, UX, writers, and front-enders.
We do our own media buying.
You could say, in fact, that we're half agency, but we're your most favourite ever client, the one you secretly yearned to work at.
We're pretty obsessive.
We think about our customers a lot.
A lot a lot.
We answer emails from customers, we join in on social media (and I mean we, as leaders do), we think constantly about what makes great experiences, great stories and great reasons for people to join us.
We're looking for someone who's worked their way round the marketing mix and can trot out some good metrics, but actually, what you really really know, is humans.
You can put together a brand pyramid, but it makes you cry inside a little bit, because actually you feel what a brand is, why people choose it (even where that might seem illogical), and you're just a little bit fascinated about why people make the choices they do.
You've led a team, and we don't mean just managing FTEs - you'll happily work with no direct reports, because your enthusiasm means awesome people will follow you, and you'll get stuff done.
You'll have direct reports but you won't measure your worth in how many, in fact the opposite.
You're a grafter, but you're a smart grafter, you put effort where you know it delivers the most value - writing out an agenda for a meeting kills a little bit of your soul.
You've a burning desire to turn your skills to something meaningful.
You enjoy the pace of the commercial world, but you'd rather not flog FMCG anymore, you'd want to be delivering something more sustainable to the world.
And finally, we have to be honest, we find that people from traditional businesses often struggle here.
We don't work to backlogs, we don't write business cases but we prioritise effectiveness and efficiency above all else.
We expect accountability without process, and responsibility without functional shoulder pads.
We get stuff done by knowing what's right, and sometimes that's hard.
This will be a senior role, reporting into the CEO of the country and looking after the brand and its growth in the Spanish market.
The position is based in Valencia 100%.
What You'll Do...
