Content and marketing manager

Shacks is a start-up company with a collection of off-grid shacks dotted around Cheshire and North Wales. Our ninth and tenth sites will go live soon, and we need someone to continue the momentum of our growing marketing efforts.

Every week is different at Shacks, with a strong emphasis on innovation and giving things a go, even if mistakes are made. Our marketing is still in its infancy, but there is a real opportunity for someone to make their mark on the business and how it is perceived. We control the process from start to finish as we build the shacks in our workshop, install them ourselves and run the holidays. So, there's plenty of opportunity for a brand story and content.

We are undergoing a re-brand behind the scenes so we are looking for someone who can adapt to this quickly and assist with it's implementation.

Our founders are travel industry experts with years of experience growing businesses. There is a real opportunity to learn from the best.

If you're excited and ready to take on a challenging role that values creativity and innovation in marketing, we would love to hear from you.

Social Media Savvy: You understand the power of social media.

A genuine love of the outdoors.

Who You Are:

Naturally entrepreneurial, we are a small company of individuals who need our core team to be independent thinkers.

A genuine interest in marketing and following trends.

Minimum 1-2 years of experience in marketing.

What We Offer:

A hybrid working model, this role can be conducted out remotely but it is important to be in and around the office/workshop consistently to understand the brand.
