Our work enhances the lives and prospects of whole communities across the North West, the UK and globally. 

This is a highly influential role. The right person for the role will:

• Help to create a thriving environment where new ideas, innovative approaches and good practices are shared. 
• As well as celebrating institutional achievements, enable people to understand how their everyday roles make a vital contribution to the wider mission and vision of the University. 
• Devise and deliver sector-leading and award-winning campaigns which resonate with our audiences.
• Deliver truly inventive campaigns which make people think, feel, and be compelled to take action. 
• Possess analytical skills which will lead to fresh insights which drive forward our marketing strategy. 

The successful candidate will enthuse and inspire people who connect with the University. 

With a primary focus on prospective students and their families, the right candidate will build meaningful and lasting relationships to grow our student community.
