Job description

Who are Planet IT?

Planet IT are an award-winning leading IT company offering complete out-sourced IT solutions to organisations across the UK and Europe. Based on Milton Park, Oxford, we provide a comprehensive range of support services, software and hardware solutions to major blue-chip clients and our technicians are highly skilled in planning, implementing, and troubleshooting.

Planet IT strives to become one of the top places to work in the UK – in fact, we believe we already are! Most of the team have been here for years, have built a terrific career, and as corny as it may sound, we really do call ourselves the Planet Family.

We welcome new people to the team all the time, from all backgrounds and all levels of experience.

We are able to attract talent to our business by investing in staff training and staff rewards, which has become a bedrock of our success. This initiative has resulted in staff becoming even better at what they do, great staff retention and greater company buy-in from the team. As part of this strategy, the more staff learn via official courses, the better the service and the more we reward them.

Primary Purpose

This is a newly created role. Supporting the Marketing Manager, you will join a small yet productive marketing team, working across both Planet IT and Planet Recruitment. Marketing touches every area within the Planet businesses.

The marketing department’s key areas of focus are driving Search Engine enquiries (SEO & PPC), Social Media, Website traffic & performance, Events (both in-person & virtual), Sales Team support, Internal Marketing and so much more.

Key Responsibilities

  • Assist with the creation and distribution of content for websites, blogs, social media, email newsletters and other digital channels.
  • Manage and update social media accounts.
  • Monitor and report on the performance of digital marketing campaigns using tools such as Google Analytics, Google Ads, LinkedIn Analytics, and others. Don’t worry, training will be given!
  • Conduct market research to help identify new opportunities and trends.
  • Support the development and implementation of SEO strategies to improve the visibility and ranking of our website.
  • Learn how to use various digital marketing tools and platforms such as WordPress (our website), Force 24 (Our Email marketing platform), Paiger (Social Media), and basic Adobe Creative Cloud (design software).
  • Help support our regular in-person and virtual events.
  • Attend regular training sessions and workshops to develop your skills and knowledge in digital marketing.

Behaviours & Skills Required

As it is a junior role, we are realistic about experience but examples of your own projects or hobbies with a marketing focus would be great to see.

This will be a busy and varied role so our ideal candidate will be bright, energetic, flexible and highly organised. You should possess the following skills or traits:

  • Ability to learn on your feet. Training will be provided but there will be a lot of on-the-job learning.
  • Strong communication skills
  • Creativity and attention to detail

  • Experience in Microsoft Office – especially Word, Excel & PowerPoint.
  • Experience with design software and a history of creating visual content.
  • Digital media savvy – we are active across multiple channels, so you must feel comfortable engaging our audience online. This includes our website, social media platforms and on email.

Bonus points for:

· Familiarity with the Adobe Creative Cloud Suite, in particular Illustrator & Photoshop.

· A track record in blogging or with a social channel who loves educating their following.

· An interest in emerging tech

This will evolve into a hybrid role. At first, you will be office based but pretty quickly the working week can be structured as followed:

· One or two days a week at Planet IT, Milton Park Abingdon OX14 4RY

· One Day a week at Planet Recruitment, Oxford OX4 2JY

· The other days as you wish, at home or in the office.
