Be part of the family...
We’re a family business through and through – family owned since 1868, family run and with a warm family welcome for guests and team alike. Our seven hotels are unique and set in three stunning Scottish locations. Some are big, some are small, but all offer fantastic food and drink, cozy beds and a wealth of things to do.
Crieff Hydro Hotel
In the heart of Scotland, we’re set in a 900 acre estate in stunning Perthshire. A home from home, we’ve been welcoming generations of families for 150 years. We have 215 hotel bedrooms, 55 self-catering lodges, 6 restaurants and over 60 onsite activities – including a spa, leisure center, horse-riding center and our famously exciting Action Glen. There really is something for everyone!
About the role
At Crieff Hydro Family of Hotels, we’re in the business of creating memories for the thousands of guests that visit us at our eight hotels and two activity centres across Scotland.
As our Marketing Executive, you will be working closely with our teams based in our eight hotels to help execute our local marketing strategy, create content and shape campaigns with our Campaigns Marketing Manager, and bring new and exciting ideas to the table. You’ll have a keen eye for detail and enjoy briefing projects to multiple agency partners.
A very varied role that will take you on many exciting journeys
* You'll create engaging and informative content across various platforms, including website copy, blog articles, social media, print materials and email copy.
* You’ll oversee the full marketing job, from the minute you get the request into our marketing ticketing system, to briefing, writing copy, checking proofs and getting point of sale in place at the hotels.
* You'll work with our partners and agencies to develop and execute our PR strategy to meet our business KPI’s.
* You'll work closely with the Campaigns Marketing Manager to execute campaign activity.
* You’ll enjoy creative writing and be on hand to write content with the rest of the team if we’ve got gaps.
* You’ll attend hotel meetings and partner meetings with the extended marketing team to learn and develop your marketing experience.
We recruit for personality and can develop your experience
* This won’t be your first marketing role, but perhaps you’re ready to take the next step so you will have a little experience in briefing, digital marketing practices, managing agencies and content creation - but you don’t need to be a know it all.
* This role is a step into a fast-paced and forward thinking business that will give you exposure to the full integrated marketing mix.
* You’re attentive and have got a great eye for detail. You’ll be proofing your own work and helping the rest of the team as a second set of eyes on some of their projects.
* You want to learn, develop and try new things. We can help you with your desire to know more and are happy to support you with the training and development you want to further your career.
* It would be useful if you have experience within hospitality or tourism, but it’s not the end of the world if you don’t - we’d be delighted to share with you the nuances of running a hospitality business.
* You’re a people person and can communicate well with different characters across the hotels, to deliver their jobs on time.
* You will be juggling multiple projects at once, so being organised is important.
* You’ll demonstrate our core values through your work by being positive, thoughtful, creative and curious to learn more.
How you know you’re doing a great job
* Through the financial performance of the business.
* The growth in the email database and the engagement of that database in our email marketing campaigns.
* Through social media reach, followers and engagement.
* The number of wedding and meeting enquiries we receive.
* Through the performance of all individual hotel websites including traffic, conversion, bookings and revenue.
What you’ll get in return
* Up to 50% off food in all of our restaurants. We’ll offer you discounted drinks too as long as you are eating.
* Looking to celebrate in style? We’d love you to host your wedding, birthday or family reunion with us and offer a discount from function space, food and beverage too.
* Discounted hotel stays so you can explore Scotland at your leisure.
* Discounted leisure membership for you, your partner and children – the longer you stay with us, the bigger the discount.
* Half price Action Glen activities for you, your partner, children and three friends.
* 30% off retail from our boutiques, leisure clubs and more.
* Discounted childcare at Big Country kids club based at Crieff Hydro.
Location
The marketing team office is based at Crieff Hydro Resort, in Crieff. You’ll need to be in the office a couple of days per week to catch-up with the rest of the team and your hotel colleagues. You will attend hotel meetings where marketing projects are discussed, but the rest of the week can be worked remotely.
