As we understand the value of the transferability of skills and experiences, we are not looking for the 'perfect candidate' – we encourage everyone who is truly excited about our mission to apply.

Day to day we’ll trust you to:

  • Develop and execute the marketing strategy for the Middle East and Africa: Drive awareness, sales, leads, and support customer retention through usage, up-sell, and cross-sell.
  • Run campaigns: From ideation to execution, you'll deploy successful marketing campaigns.
  • Experiment and innovate: Find the best channels to reach our target audiences.
  • Measure and optimize: Report on campaign performance, gain insights, and adjust strategies to hit our goals.
  • Support sales teams: Provide marketing tools, campaign assets, and content tailored to local audience needs and behaviours.
  • Collaborate with the product and services marketing team: Adapt and deliver regional messaging that reflects Emerald's value proposition.

The ideal candidate will demonstrate the following:

  • Marketing skills: Brand strategy, campaign delivery, copywriting, digital marketing, social media.
  • Data savvy: Comfortable working with numbers, making sense of metrics, and processing figures with spreadsheets.
  • Team player: Collaboration and influencing across marketing and sales teams.
  • Great listener: Assimilate information and act on it.
  • Multi-tasker: Ability to prioritise and manage multiple projects.
  • Deadline-driven: Meet deadlines and maintain stable performance under pressure.
  • Excellent communicator: Strong communication and interpersonal skills.
  • Experience: Previous experience in research publishing or an academic research environment is a plus.
