I manage all social media marketing and Email marketing sent from Xposure. I create email campaigns and social media campaigns to align with the client's marketing strategy. I also do copywriting and write articles with marketing advice or articles for clients to put onto the website or to use on emails.
I have learnt all my marketing knowledge from this role as I had no previous experience in the industry. I have learnt skills in many different areas, including social media marketing, email marketing, marketing automation, conversion rate optimisation, website design, and more. This role has given me the necessary skills to work in the marketing industry.
I really enjoy my apprenticeship. The course has great content and interesting modules taught through a mix of in-person and online learning. I feel really supported by the university and the lecturers are quick to answer any questions or queries I may have via email. I also enjoying travelling to the university and speaking to other people on my course.
For the most part, it is structured and organised well. There have been some instances where an on-site day has been moved or an online session cancelled. Also sometimes the on-sites dates have been the day before the deadline of the same or a different module so it has been difficult to ensure assignments can be completed before the session.
I receive a lot of support from my employer. We are a very small team of 3 employees in the whole company and have constant communication with each other so if there is anything I need from them or if I have any questions, these can be asked and answered very quickly.
I receive a lot of support from Nottingham Trent University on my course. All the staff on the course have always been very helpful and have answered me quickly with any questions or concerns I may have. The staff also make time with you before a submission deadline to give advice and feedback on work.
I find most assignments on the course relevant to my role and key knowledge and skills I have learnt to be useful in my role. There are many different aspects of marketing covered in the course including data analysis, analytics, customer personas and planning campaigns which I am then able to apply to my role.
As I work for a small business there are not any extra curricular activities. However, we do often meet at a restaurant or pub to work and are able to have food and drinks during the work day. In future, it would be nice to have social outing and sports activities when the company grows.
Yes
They are a great company to work for. They have supported my development throughout my career in marketing and throughout my personal and professional development. I have constant support and praise from my employer and the company and would recommend to anyone thinking of applying they are a great company.
Showcase your skillset and what you value you could bring to the company and the particular role you are applying for. Try to differentiate yourself from other with interesting skills or knowledge that other may not have. Don't just speak about the types of qualification, explain what you've learnt and why this skill is important.
