An exciting opportunity has arisen for a driven marketing professional to join the team at Manorview as a Head of Marketing / Marketing Director. Responsible for delivering and leading marketing activities and campaigns across our collection of hotels, wedding venues, bars, restaurants, spa and late night venues, it’s an extremely diverse role in a fast paced environment, where every day is different.
Manorview is a Scottish hospitality group formed in 2017. With 500+ strong people, we’re one team, with one goal – to make life better, through hospitality.
Having experienced consistent growth, we have a diverse portfolio of hospitality experiences – from a romantic Scottish castle, to a boutique sea-side hotel, and popular countryside spa hotel. As such, our Marketing department are kept busy; ensuring we deliver leads for our sales teams, drive conversions, generate brand awareness and attract footfall.
The role is challenging but rewarding. It’s perfect for marketing professionals who like to work at pace, work with excellent products and services, and use both their creativity and smart thinking to get results.
Leading a team of fellow marketers, as well as two designers, the successful candidate will report directly to our Managing Director. You will work closely with the Group Sales Manager, Operations Director, General Managers and various members of our venue teams too.
