Why work for us?
We are transforming how we market the Motorpoint Arena and National Ice Centre and are looking for progressive and creative marketing professionals to join us on the journey - might that be you?
We are a vibrant, 10,000 capacity live entertainment venue in the heart of Nottingham that for 25 years has hosted world-class shows across music, comedy, family, arts, and sports. From Kylie to Peter Kay, to Disney, to Panthers ice hockey and Forest Netball - no two days are the same.
Our sister venue is the National Ice Centre, where our community comes together for ice sports across figure, synchro, speed skating, and ice hockey. Whether you're a family enjoying skating for fun, or a budding professional gliding in the footsteps of our local heroes Torvill and Dean, we provide the UK's best ice sports experience.
Our purpose is to create joyful experiences. Our marketing team is responsible for engaging with our one million 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 and events.
What will you be doing?
We are looking for an enthusiastic and ambitious Marketing & Communications Executive with knowledge and experience of the live entertainment industry.
You will sit within the Marketing & Communications team and be responsible for supporting the team across a wide range of activities across the Motorpoint Arena and National Ice Centre.
Your specific responsibilities can be summarised as follows:
60% Event Marketing
Paid-for digital marketing: Support and learn from Event Marketing Manager in all aspects of managing marketing campaigns across Meta, Google and other media platforms
Organic social media: Support event day content creation across Facebook, Instagram, and other channels, and lead on Tik Tok
Arena show announcements & PR: Support event announcement & ticket on-sale process, including website event management, plus supporting on proactive pre and post event PR
E-mails: Manage e-mail campaigns, including announcements, pre-sales, multi-mailers and event mailers
Promoter relationships: Support promoter relationships, including leading on sharing marketing opportunities
40% Marketing & Communications team
Administration: Manage tasks such as booking photographers and videographers, supporting Artist Gifting programme, raising financial PO's, managing the team’s Training requirements and health and safety obligations, plus supporting and deputising for tasks such as digital screen management

Event sales data: Own the accuracy, consistency, and usability of the master Events spreadsheet and accompanying historical data, ensuring artist and event information is up to date and accessible for the wider 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 to drive ticket sales.
As an Executive, 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.
We're a nimble, streamlined team who thrive on working in a high-pressure live events environment, often working to short deadlines. So, most importantly, you will be a team player who is at ease working collaboratively with colleagues in the Marketing and Communications team, and across all other functions of the business.
