Founder & Lead Consultant - Seeded Marketing
Marketing Account Manager
Cambridge
Hybrid – two days per week in the office (NIAB Barn4, Histon, Cambridge).
About Seeded and the Role
Seeded is a rapidly growing agricultural marketing agency that supports businesses in the agricultural sector with three core competencies: proven marketing experience, an intimate knowledge of farming, and unrivalled technical expertise.
We have diverse clients across the sector, from crop inputs to farm machinery and controlled environment agriculture. Their size ranges from some of the biggest international corporations in the industry to start-ups.
Our services are as diverse as our client base. Around half of our current portfolio is technical PR and content creation, but we have expanded to provide a complete marketing service for several clients. Seeded’s full-service offer includes strategy development, digital marketing (including paid and organic social), media booking, events, and everything in between.
What would you be doing as a Marketing Account Manager?
Your work would mirror the diversity of Seeded’s business as a whole. A typical week would involve you working in the office for two days per week, two days at home (or in the office if you prefer) and one day with clients, at an event or on a farm.
Communicating directly with clients, you will coordinate and prioritise their work. This is approximately 50% technical and corporate PR and content creation, 20% digital marketing and social media, and the remainder a mixture of the rest of the marketing mix, client reporting and strategy development.
Who are we looking for?
The skills we need
* Proven marketing experience: You have been successful in a marketing or marketing communications role for at least three years.
* An intimate knowledge of farming: You have grown up on a farm, have practical experience in agriculture, or studied an agriculture-related subject at university.
* Unrivalled technical expertise: Your previous experience has given you some technical knowledge in a specific area of agriculture, and you are keen to learn more about agribusiness, agronomy, agricultural machinery, and animal husbandry.
There will be some travel to visit clients, events and farms. You will need a full UK driving licence for the role.
The skills we would like
* Experience with video and audio production.
* Existing relationships with the UK agriculture trade press.
* BASIS, FACTS or similar technical qualifications.
* A marketing-related qualification such as CIM or CIPR certificates.
* Practical writing experience for the press or in-house technical literature.
* Graphic design experience using software such as Canva or InDesign.
* SEO, AdWords and paid social media experience.
* Experience using digital marketing tools like media monitoring, MailChimp, Loomly, Hootsuite, HubSpot, and Zoho.
You will embrace responsibility and be comfortable making informed decisions. When asking for help, you will think beyond the problems to the potential solutions, weighing their merits in your assessment.
Seeded has ambitious plans for the future, and you are excited about how this will help you grow your career.
Our Offer
* A salary of £35,000 to £45,000 per year.
* 25 days annual leave plus bank holidays.
* Pension matched up to 5% of salary.
* Investment in your development with formal training, mentoring and opportunities for additional responsibility as the company grows.
