Marketing Assistant / Executive
Ardersier, Inverness (with potential for hybrid working)
Who We Are
We’re Silver Fox Tools, a Highland-based Everyday Carry (EDC) company crafting beautifully designed, high-quality pocket tools that are as stylish as they are practical. Founded in Ardersier, we’re a small team of makers who believe tools shouldn’t just do the job, they should feel good to use and look great doing it.
We design tools that are built to last a lifetime (and then some), backed by a 100-year guarantee, and alongside this legacy, we’re building an online community around our tools and the incredible creations made with them. We’re inspiring people who appreciate well-made tools and the stories they help create to make, mend, and fashion their own legacy.
We’re now looking for a Marketing Assistant / Executive to join us on a full-time, permanent basis, working Monday to Friday, 9am-5pm.
What You’ll Get
- Salary of up to £26,000 per annum
- Monthly team BBQs and cook-offs
- Access to the tool portfolio (build your own fully loaded toolkit!)
- A collaborative environment where your creative ideas get implemented
- A chance to get in with a company that's growing fast and shaping the future of a new and exciting market
This is a brilliant opportunity for a creative graduate with some marketing experience under their belt and strong writing skills to join our growing Highland-based organisation.
This is a role where your ideas won’t just sit in a folder gathering dust; they’ll be put to work, helping our fast-growing brand stay as polished and purposeful as the tools we make.
Plus, we’re a small, welcoming team with big ideas (and a pretty decent BBQ game to match), and we’ve built a workplace that’s as enjoyable as it is creative, offering you so much more than a standard marketing job.
So, if you’re ready to turn sharp ideas into sharp marketing for products with real personality, we’d love to hear from you!
What You’ll Be Getting Stuck Into
As a Marketing Assistant / Executive, you’ll be the creative engine behind our online presence, bringing the brand to life and making sure it looks as sharp online as our tools do in hand.
Running your own marketing desk (with support from the directors), you’ll plan and deliver campaigns, manage email marketing, and build CRM flows that take customers from first click to loyal fan.
Alongside this, you’ll help grow and engage the Silver Fox community, keeping conversations flowing, spotting brand ambassadors, and staying one step ahead of trends to keep the brand sharp and relevant.
Additionally, you’ll:
- Build and proofread newsletters and promotional email campaigns
- Update website product listings with accurate descriptions and imagery
- Research market trends, competitors, and new product launches
- Support social media planning, content capture, and caption writing
Who We’re Looking For
You’ll be someone who:
- Has some experience in a marketing role, at least one year
- Writes confidently and can switch from technical product details to relaxed, on-brand copy
- Is organised and comfortable juggling a few things at once
- The ability to work from our base in Ardersier, near Inverness
- Has a marketing or business degree (or similar qualification)
But if you can show us a killer portfolio and the right vibe, you could be the Marketing Assistant / Executive we’re looking for, degree or not.
Please note, this role may involve working additional hours, when required, for events or product launches.
Other organisations may call this role Marketing Officer, Digital Marketing Assistant, Social Media Assistant, Content Marketing Assistant, Marcomms Assistant, or Communications Assistant.
