In the words of the team, you should leave your current role for this one because….

No two days are the same in this team. From long-term planning to last-minute amends that impact hundreds of thousands of customers, it’s a role that will keep you on your toes, get you exposed to multiple areas of the business and to initiatives that have a real impact on the customer

Where you’ll work:

At OVO, we understand that a one size fits all approach doesn’t work for everyone. That’s why we created the OVO Way of Flexibility.

All our roles are hub based (Bristol, Glasgow or London), providing a dedicated space for collaboration, connection and teamwork. You’ll also have the flexibility to work from home.

Everyone belongs at OVO

At OVO, we are on a mission to solve one of humanity’s biggest challenges, the climate crisis. And we know it takes all of us to change the world. That’s why we need diverse people from all abilities, gender identities, ethnicities, ages, sexual orientations, life experiences and backgrounds to join us.

Teamworking for the planet

Everything we do here spins around Plan Zero. So, naturally, the team you’ll be joining plays a gigantic role in making that happen. Here’s how:

We’re hiring world-changers. Every role we’re hiring plays their own part in our mission; our role is to find those people and bring them on our Zero Carbon journey. Our marketeers cover a whole lot: strategy and insights, brand marketing, partnership and sponsorship, commercial marketing, SEO, and communications to our members. It’s where our super creative in-house studio sits, but we work with a host of specialist agencies too.

• Experience in dissecting and communicating data insights from marketing campaigns
• Seeking learning opportunities to deepen your expertise or broaden your knowledge
• Excellent organisational skills – this role requires the ability to keep multiple plates spinning at the same time

You’ll be a successful Marketing Associate at OVO if you…

• Scope for impact – the work we’re doing will touch over a million households nationwide
• Drive the creation of marketing communications to OVO’s customer base, end-to-end
• Analyse email marketing campaigns for their effectiveness and drive improvements
• Work closely with multiple functions across OVO X and the wider business e.g., CRM, design, SEO, brand, legal, data and the various business units within OVO
