SUMMARY

ABOUT JBM MUSIC

JBM Music is a leading independent live music event company, producing festivals, club shows and live events across the UK. Our family of brands includes Reggae Land, All Out Festival, Boogietown, Electric Paradise, Electric Heart, Barton LIVE, The Balearic Garden and 90s Baby, alongside a year-round calendar of club and live shows.

With over 25 years in the live music industry across dance, reggae, soul, bass, urban and live genres, from our home in Manchester.

We work on some of the biggest festivals in the UK, and we also own Joshua Brooks, one of Manchester’s best underground nightclubs and bars. We’re a growing company and this is an exciting time to join.

We are looking for a marketer who wants to help spread the word about the legendary artists & emerging talent we’re working with. Creating brands with recognition and establishing the next sell out shows!

THE ROLE

As our Marketing & PR Coordinator, you will work alongside the Marketing Manager to help curate and deliver campaigns across six to seven events at any one time, sharing ideas and helping bring them to life through social media management, e-flyers, press coverage and overseeing creator / influencer content. All public-facing activity is approved by the Marketing Manager before it goes out, so this role is for go-getters who are organised, proactive and comfortable working to deadlines.

And when the lights go on, you’ll be boots on the ground, bringing our online into reality through content capturing and helping bring our brands to life.

• Content & Asset Support.
  • Develop fresh content ideas for campaigns, turn them into clear designer briefs and keep assets organised within the marketing plan.
• Planning / Reporting.
  • Keep calendars and trackers up to date and send a weekly update on progress and risks.

WHO'S IT FOR
