Join Aconda and help shape how we present a growing, award-winning British engineering business to the world.
About Aconda
Aconda Industrial Carriers is a growing British engineering business designing and supplying innovative machinery to customers around the world.
We have a strong presence in our existing markets and ambitious plans for continued growth, with exciting new opportunities developing in the USA and Canada.
We are also proud recipients of the King’s Award for Enterprise: Innovation, recognising the innovation behind our products and what we have achieved as a business.
We're now looking for a Marketing & Content Coordinator to help us improve how we communicate our products, people and capabilities to customers around the world.
The Role
This is a hands-on marketing and content creation role.
You'll be responsible for creating engaging content around our products and business – from photographing and filming machinery to editing videos, creating graphics, producing social media content and supporting email campaigns.
Our products are physical, engineered machines, so this isn't a role where you'll spend all day behind a desk. You could be photographing a new machine in our workshop, editing a product video, creating content for an international campaign or preparing material for an upcoming exhibition.
You don't need to be an engineering expert. Our team will provide the technical knowledge and proofread technical material. We need you to turn that information into professional, interesting and visually engaging content.
You'll work closely with our Managing Director and Head of Global Sales, while taking ownership of the day-to-day creation and delivery of marketing content.
What You'll Be Doing
- Creating original photography and video content featuring our machinery, people and business
- Editing photographs and videos into professional marketing content
- Creating graphics, posters and promotional material
- Planning, creating and publishing content across our social media channels
- Monitoring and responding to social media comments and messages
- Creating content for email marketing campaigns
- Supporting product launches, exhibitions, demonstrations and other marketing activities
- Helping produce marketing content for our international sales and distributor network
- Making website content updates where required and where your skills allow
- Occasionally travelling to trade shows, demonstrations or customer sites to capture content
What We're Looking For
We're looking for someone with some practical marketing or content creation experience, but we're more interested in your capability, ideas, and attitude than a particular number of years in the industry.
You'll ideally have:
- A good eye for photography and experience photographing products or similar subjects
- Experience filming and editing video
- Experience creating graphics and promotional content using Canva, Adobe Creative Suite or similar
- A good understanding of the major social media platforms
- Strong written communication and attention to detail
- Good organisation and the ability to manage multiple activities
- Initiative and the confidence to take ownership of your work
- A willingness to learn about our products, customers and industry
Experience with websites, engineering, manufacturing or technical products would be useful, but isn't essential.
Who Will Do Well at Aconda?
We're a relatively small team, so individual contribution matters.
We value people who show initiative, take accountability, and want to keep learning. You'll need to be comfortable getting involved – walking into the workshop, talking to colleagues, understanding our machinery and finding opportunities to create good content.
We also want someone who understands that good marketing isn't just about likes and followers. The purpose is to strengthen our brand, communicate what makes our products different and ultimately support the commercial growth of the business.
Opportunity to Grow
This role has genuine scope to develop.
As Aconda continues to grow, we want the successful person to grow with us. For someone who demonstrates the capability and ambition, there will be opportunities to take increasing ownership of our marketing activity and progress in the future.
You'll have direct access to our products, sales team and senior management, and importantly, room to bring your own ideas and improve how we market the business.
Applying
Please apply with your CV and, where possible, examples of content you've created – such as photography, videos, social media posts, graphics or campaigns.
We're interested in seeing what you can create and what you could bring to Aconda.
