Who we're looking for
This is a fantastic opportunity for a digitally and data-minded, early-career marketer to build their experience and skills within Cazenove Capital, the wealth management arm of Schroders in the UK. The marketing and communications team consists of 13 people and covers everything from brand, digital, campaigns, content and events.
We are looking for a detail-oriented and resourceful digital marketing executive to join our busy, 'always-learning' team. The successful candidate will demonstrate a genuine passion for digital - driven to find out how things work and how to improve performance.
The role also requires a data-driven mindset. The successful candidate will be able to demonstrate confidence and objectivity working with data, as well as familiarity with data security and privacy regulations pertaining to financial services.
Reporting to the Head of Digital Marketing for Wealth Management, the purpose of this role is to provide crucial support to the team, boosting our production capacity and efficacy, improving our reporting and ability to anticipate opportunities and challenges, while broadening the collective skillset of the team. This will be achieved by undertaking content production, data gathering, reporting and administrative tasks, as well as becoming a super-user of our automated marketing platform (Adobe Campaign) to support the production and delivery of client emails.
This entry-to-digital-marketing role is suitable for candidates in the early stages of their career with 2+ years of relevant experience and/or graduates (from University or technical college) who've studied computer science, data science and/or digital marketing.
About Schroders
We're a global investment manager. We help institutions, intermediaries and individuals around the world invest money to meet their goals, fulfil their ambitions, and prepare for the future.
We have around 5,000 people on six continents. And we've been around for over 200 years, but keep adapting as society and technology changes. What doesn't change is our commitment to helping our clients, and society, prosper.

Using specialist digital tools, customer data and performance data, we target new and existing audiences, refine and optimise our content and marketing messages to user experiences that reflect the highest standards of quality that imbues everything we do.
On a day-to-day basis, this translates into building and publishing digital marketing collateral and content on our owned and paid channels including websites, search, social media and email. We also maintain and, importantly, continually seek to improve our digital channels, tools and data repositories in our Martech stack.
