Marketing Coordinator

SUMMARY:
The Marketing Coordinator is responsible for developing and implementing Signa Academy's marketing strategy, with a strong focus on strategic planning, script and content writing, campaign development, and brand consistency. Should external creative or marketing partners be appointed in future, this role would act as the key internal point of contact, ensuring campaigns are briefed, delivered and reported on in line with the marketing strategy. The Marketing Coordinator works closely with the Social Media & Digital Marketer, Graphic Designer and Sales team to bring campaigns to life, but is not responsible for day-to-day social media platform management. The ideal candidate is a creative, strategic thinker who is confident using AI tools, takes initiative, and is comfortable owning marketing strategy from planning through to hands-on execution in a fast-paced B2B and/or education-sector environment.
