Following a significant increase in work, including lots of new projects, we are looking for an Engagement Marketing Manager to join our existing team based in either Newcastle or Dover.

Alongside this, you will be developing and implementing a plan for enhancing customer review scores and maintaining awareness and identification of new developments and trends within digital marketing industry for continual expansion, growth, and improvement, individually and for our brand.
