Job description

Location : guildford Employment type : FULL_TIME Expires : REPLACEMENT_STRING06-30 Department : Marketing

ACM is a specialist creative industries education provider with approximately 2,200 students on a range of FE and HE programmes in Music Performance, Creative Artistry, Production, Technical Services, Business Management and Game Development. Our creative and dynamic environment blends academic excellence and professionalism alongside leading-edge industry thinking and business innovation.

ACM’s Vision:

ACM will incubate potential and talent, supporting the personalised development needs of our students to facilitate a structured path from education to employment.

We provide a safe and supported space where creative talent and imagination can flourish in a caring environment. Barriers to learning are identified through a holistic and person-centred approach to unlock the potential of the individual, enabling personal growth through professional and academic development. Our core aim is for our students to enjoy lifelong sustainable careers underpinned by applied learning and a specialist, cutting-edge curriculum.

Therefore, our vision is to not only be the leader in applied, industry-connected, creative arts education but to also be the leader in care and support for mental health and other traditional barriers to learning, thereby driving up the standards expected within higher and further education.

ACM’s Mission:

To provide an immersive student experience, with a curriculum which is connected to the industry in real-time, based on a learning by doing ethos. Our core aim is to build confidence and self-awareness, providing students with the skills necessary to recognise and take opportunities.

Ultimately our mission is to enable students to fulfil their potential and enjoy a sustainable career within the creative arts industry.

ROLE PURPOSE:

The Academy of Contemporary Music (ACM) is looking for an outlier to help us break new ground in the world of Digital Marketing. We are of course looking for an individual that can plan, manage, implement and review all our lead generation and student acquisition budget across all our digital platforms. With experience in SEO, Social Channel Marketing, content strategy, competitor analysis and paid advertising campaigns alongside a deep understanding of Google Analytics and data analytics.

We expect the successful candidate to be a superb communicator, able to work with our existing content team, videographer, graphic designer and channel management team on integrated and effective campaigns from planning to execution and activation through to review. However we are also looking for somebody that can dream beyond the numbers and data, somebody who knows the difference between what could be done and what should be done – In our experience that is rare. Digital Marketing in the education space constantly evolves as does the ACM Product, the ability to scan the horizon both internally and externally is essential.

ACM is an institution that not only teaches our students how to be resilient and self-starting, but expects that of our team members too. Like the Creative Industries themselves, ACM eschews traditional hierarchy. We support good ideas, hard work and inspirational thinking wherever it takes place in the organisation. The successful candidate will be expected to take briefs and report results directly to the Group Chairman – and senior management. With this exposure comes a greater sphere of responsibility than in most institutions. If you have the skills, energy and ambition to guide an institution with insight and intelligence from your very first day, you will find ACM a supportive, energising and inspirational place to be part of.
