Did you know HEINEKEN owns more than 2,400 pubs across the UK? We believe great pubs play an important role in British culture and in the communities they serve. Through Star Pubs, we work with our lessees to help them build successful businesses, giving them the support, tools and investment they need to make the most of their pubs.
That takes great people behind the scenes too.
We're looking for a Marketer to join our Star Pubs Licensee Attraction Marketing Team on a fixed-term contract. You'll help us attract the right people to our pubs and bring the Star Pubs opportunity to life for potential lessees.
If you're looking for your next marketing opportunity and fancy doing something a little different, we'd love to hear from you.
A key focus for the Licensee Attraction Team is to attract, proactively recruit, and appoint the best licensees and pub operators. We need to stand out. We need to reach a broader demographic with our communications in a very competitive marketplace. As one of our Marketing and Campaigns Managers, you’ll work with the Star Pubs Attraction Marketing Manager to be the lead technical expert on all things digital, social and content regarding pub operator attraction.
You’ll deliver the regional marketing strategy to attract licensees to our vacant pubs. You’ll be the first point of contact for the team of Licensee Attraction Managers to build and execute a recruitment plan for their regions. You’ll also be a product owner of the pub website listings, email marketing system and take the lead on collating and analysing our customer experience measurement and insights.
We’re looking for someone who has experience with creating compelling creative assets using Canva, Adobe Illustrator or Photoshop, and PremierPro, or briefing our creative agencies and bringing to life on our external channels (to let boards and banners, POS flyers for pub vacancies and open day advertising material, social and digital ads and marketing e-shots) why pub operators should take a pub agreement with Star Pubs.
Experience in managing website listings, email marketing systems, digital platforms and social media channels will be preferred as you’ll be responsible for ensuring a consistent look, feel and tone of voice across our external communication platforms. You’ll also work closely with the rest of the Licensee Attraction Team to develop stand-out adverts for vacancies and events as well as create digital content to support campaigns.
It’d be a real asset if you have a strong appreciation (or love) for data, knowing that the success of what you do needs to be measured and you’ll be able to pull on experience of utilising data analytic tools to assess the performance of campaigns and engagement. You’ll have money to spend on campaigns and you’ll need to utilise your analytical skills to demonstrate the ROI.
As part of the team, along with your salary, you'll also receive:
You'll also have the opportunity to get involved with one of our colleague networks, where colleagues from across the business work together to help ensure we're building a diverse and inclusive workplace where everyone can thrive.
If you like what you've read and you're ready to brew a better career with us, we'd love to hear from you.
We may close vacancies early if we receive a high volume of applications, so don't delay.
If you need any adjustments to support your application, for example if you require information in a different format or have any accessibility requirements, we're happy to help. Please get in touch with us at recruitment@heineken.co.uk.
