Job description

Old Square Chambers is a leading set of chambers, specialising in Employment and Discrimination, Personal Injury, Clinical Negligence and Professional Discipline and Regulation, comprising of 84 members (22 King’s Counsel and 62 juniors).

An opportunity has arisen to join our marketing team, in the capacity of a Marketing Manager. This is an important role amongst a busy staff team.

The ideal candidate will be able to demonstrate strong interpersonal skills and be conscientious, target driven and collaboration focussed. Possessing a strong ethos surrounding both internal and external service delivery, they will be able to bring strong organisation skills and new ideas to the marketing team as well as a focus on the continued successes and innovations of Chambers.

A qualification in business development, marketing or another relevant field would be beneficial. As a minimum, the candidate must have 3 years marketing experience, preferably within the legal sector. Previous experience of working with digital marketing tools and website management are desirable.

Duties will include day to day management of all internal and external marketing events, from all appropriate preparation to managing the actual events. The marketing initiatives will be steered by our Senior Management Team and Special Interest Groups, and it will be the responsibility of our Marketing Manager to have input into those innovations, as well as responsibility for delivering them.

The role will require the successful candidate to take ownership of the website and our social media channels (ensuring they are up to date and monitoring and reporting on analytics, as well as designing content), and to present ideas to ensure we remain competitive in terms of design, functionality and usage.

Directories are a key responsibility of this role, and the Marketing Manager will take responsibility for the process in it’s entirety, in conjunction with the Senior Clerk and SIGs.

The marketing team consists of a Marketing Manager and an Assistant, and the Marketing Manager will have day to day responsibility for the supervision of the Assistant role.

In addition to the duties outlined above, the Marketing Manager will, as directed by the Senior Clerk, assist in reporting on and attaining the strategic goals of Chambers as appropriate.

This role is varied and relies on the successful candidate’s ability to forge strong relationships with the many people that interact with the marketing function in Chambers, from senior staff and members to clients to sub-contractors. The ideal candidate will be approachable and an excellent communicator. Strong written communication skills are also essential.

The successful candidate will take ownership of ensuring our marketing database is up to date.

The role does provide for a degree of flexible working on successful completion of probation, in accordance with the scheme we have in place.

The salary, bonus and benefits package on offer for this role is highly competitive and available on request.

If you would like to have a confidential conversation with a member of our senior management team regarding the vacancy and competitive package available, please contact either Will Meade (wmeade@oldsquare.co.uk) or Sarah Earl (searl@oldsquare.co.uk).
