Why work for us?
We are transforming how we market the Motorpoint Arena and are looking for aspiring marketing professionals to join us on the journey - might that be you?

Our sister venue is the National Ice Centre, where our community comes together for ice sports across figure, synchro and speed skating, and ice hockey.

We welcome over one million people a year from all walks of life - our marketing team is responsible for engaging with our visitors from the start to the end of their experience with our venues, encouraging them to visit again, and finding new audiences to enjoy our shows.
Job description
We are looking for a Marketing Coordinator who is keen to start their marketing journey in the live entertainment industry.
We are open to applications for this role from full-time candidates, as well as from potential student interns or apprentices.
You will report to the Marketing Manager in our Marketing and Communications team and be responsible for supporting the team on a wide range of administrative marketing and communications activities.
In directly supporting the Marketing Manager, you can expect to provide day-to-day operational support on:
- marketing of our premium hospitality experiences across our suites, Spotlight restaurant, The Green Room, and Bar 1946
- marketing of our Food & Beverage (F&B) and Meetings & Events (M&E) propositions
- managing our commercial relationships with sponsors and partners
- co-ordination of our owned marketing assets, such as digital screens, poster sites, venue scoreboards and perimeter advertising, and other in-venue media
- Ice Sports marketing for the National Ice Centre
You will also provide operational support for the wider Marketing and Communications team, such as:
- updating social media accounts, websites, and e-mails
- PR activity, e.g. issuing press releases
- internal communications activity, e.g. compiling newsletters
- regular reporting and scorecards of marketing and communications activity, including for internal forums such as the Leadership team

You will work in partnership with all the functions across the business on a daily basis, in particular, our Arena Sales and Hospitality team.
What are we looking for?
Like all good marketeers, you will have a curious mind and be a champion of improving the customer experience.
As a Coordinator, you will take pride in your attention to detail and be comfortable in flagging things that are not correct.
You will be eager to help others and learn about all aspects of our department and the wider business.
