At Cancer Research UK, we exist to beat cancer.

We’re looking for an inspiring Marketing Delivery Executive to support Cancer Research UK’s marketing team to execute best-in-class campaigns. You will help implement marketing plans for a wide variety of campaigns across the marketing portfolio.

These roles sit within the flexible marketing team which acts as a central resource team to help marketing delivery teams with campaign delivery and execution. This is a unique role and offers huge opportunity to work across CRUK’s marketing portfolio, audiences and channels.

In the Marketing Delivery team, our vision is to create tailored, audience-first marketing campaigns that connect people to our mission of beating cancer. Through trusted collaboration, innovation, and bold creativity, we inspire meaningful action and lasting support.

What will I be doing?

• In response to briefs, support the campaign set-up and delivery process for multi-channel campaigns, including creative asset development.
• Work with data selections, digital marketing and social teams to deliver data and digital campaign set-up requirements.
• Support all aspects of campaign delivery to time and budget whilst meeting agreed KPIs.
• Work with email & SMS, social and marketing teams to deliver email, SMS, social and other specialist digital marketing activity.
• Conduct in-campaign and post-campaign analysis, sharing learnings and recommendations to improve activity with relevant stakeholders.
• Work collaboratively with teams across Marketing & Digital and the broader Marketing, Fundraising & Engagement directorate.

What are we looking for?

• Experience of delivering marketing campaigns, from planning through to execution and analysis.
• Experience of using key marketing technology like analytics tools, CMS and email platforms.
• Strong communication (both written and verbal).
• Evidence of developing effective marketing assets, following sign-off processes and aligning with brand guidelines.
• Ability to manage own workload and work well under pressure - juggling competing deadlines, seamlessly adapting to new ways of working, and working with several teams at once.
• Proven success of good stakeholder management, with the ability to build strong working relationships and collaborate effectively.
• Experience of using data with an understanding of insight and UX principles for campaign optimisation.
• Experience in email marketing and website content.
• Passionate marketer with an interest in customer journeys and the role of different channels in multi-channel campaigns.
• Good working knowledge of Microsoft Office, including Excel and PowerPoint.

Our organisation values are designed to guide all that we do.

Bold: Act with ambition, courage and determination

Credible: Act with rigour and professionalism

Human: Act to have a positive impact on people

Together: Act inclusively and collaboratively

We’re looking for people who can believe in and embody these organisation values and can use them to drive forward progress against our mission to beat cancer.

If you’re interested in applying and excited about working with us but are unsure if you have the right skills and experience we’d still love to hear from you.
