Placement summary
At Exmos we make IT pain-free for more and more businesses by thinking innovatively around our customers’ issues and providing leading-edge technology to help improve staff productivity and business efficiency. We work with privately owned, mid-size SMEs right up to fairly substantial global corporations, delivering networking, custom software development and ongoing customer support in the UK, Europe and USA, from our base in Grangemouth, Central Scotland.
We’re growing and we need a Marketing and Administration Graduate to join our team for an initial 12 month project.
Job description
Project Description
This 12 month placement will report to our Commercial Manager and you will split your time across the two sides of the project (depending on demand). In effect, you will have the best of both worlds - firstly, your recently acquired marketing skills will help us to shape and implement our marketing strategy, both traditional and digital and secondly, as a recent graduate, you will gain vital and perhaps career defining exposure to how a business operates internally and you will bring enthusiasm and professionalism to our sales administration processes. Both of these key areas of our business require a dedicated approach and given that we have a brand, new products and lots to say to new and existing customers, you can see exactly where your role fits in the overall business model.
Placement Objectives
The project is really to help devise our marketing strategy and implement it, covering all communication channels – social media, print, editorial, website, etc.
Role Description
Marketing responsibilities will include the following:
- Agree, implement and maintain the social media strategy for the company
- Create and distribute (via email marketing platform) monthly newsletters, blogs and other communication material
- Assist with the creation of new copy for publications
- Assist with website maintenance, SEO and analytics
- Support the wider team with sales literature, updating and rewriting where as and when required
- Keep up to date with competitor activity
Office Admin responsibilities will include the following:
- Track the sales enquiry process via the CRM system
- Prepare service quotes for issuing to clients
- Assist with material quotations, placing purchase orders and tracking delivery
- Create sales orders in preparation for invoicing
- Ongoing maintenance of asset management system
- Processing purchase invoices
