Job description
A bit about MRM Global
At MRM Global, our purpose is to enable the world’s leading consumer brands to increase their sales and reduce wastage.
Research shows that up to 30% of physical marketing materials in the consumer goods industry are never executed and are instead sent to landfill, incinerated, or recycled. This wastes time, resources, money and most importantly has a huge negative impact on the environment.
At MRM Global, we believe there is a better way to support customers with physical marketing. We believe that the future is on-demand ordering, localised content, and distributed production.
Global consumer brands such as Bacardi, Diageo, Carlsberg, and many others use our Brand Creator technology platform to create customised and brand compliant marketing materials that are produced 100% on-demand through our global cloud printing network.
MRM Global is a high growth scale-up business with an ambition to become an industry leading marketing technology company. Since we launched our Brand Creator platform 5 years ago, we have grown rapidly (average year on year revenue growth of 41%) and have expanded into 35 countries. In 2020, we secured a £2.6m investment from the British Growth Fund (BGF) to fund our continued growth with a focus on expanding rapidly in North America.
Our next phase of growth is the most exciting yet as we scale the business globally and we are looking for brilliant people to join us on our mission to fundamentally change the way that global brands deliver their physical marketing.
Our Culture
Our culture reflects our rapid growth and our ambition to be the global market leader. That means that we’re a fast-paced organisation where every day is different, and the work is challenging. We appreciate that the scale-up experience isn’t for everyone. We are specifically looking for people who love taking responsibility, challenging themselves and who strongly relate to our 4 core values:
Teamwork: Growing a global company means solving some very difficult problems and we believe working as a team and leveraging the skills of a diverse group of people is the best way to solve those problems. We look for team players with a track record of working with others to achieve amazing results.
Resilience: If you're looking for a smooth ride on a freshly surfaced road, with no diversions, MRM probably isn't for you. We’re looking for people who love a challenge, can handle uncertainty and have the gritty resilience to overcome difficulties.
Humility: Being open to learn and being able to admit when you’re wrong is fundamental to having the growth mindset required at MRM. At MRM we are taking on new challenges every day and we don’t have all the answers. Those who succeed at MRM are humble with a strong desire to develop themselves and be constantly learning.
Authenticity: At MRM we believe it's essential to have genuine connections with team-mates, customers, and suppliers. We look for people that are honest, genuine and can build deep relationships with others based on trust and authenticity.
