Marketing Manager (On-Site)
London | On-site
37.5k - 40k per annum
Sugar Studios is a studio facility in the heart of London, used by the likes of Nike, Red Bull Racing, BT Sport, and England Rugby. We're trusted for commercial shoots, music videos, branded content — and we're one of the few independent spaces in the UK offering Virtual Production.
We’re now hiring our first Marketing Manager — someone ready to take full ownership of our marketing and build the function from scratch. You’ll be involved in everything: from strategy to execution, SEO to social, partnerships to PR. If you’ve ever wanted to shape a brand, own the outcomes, and grow something with your stamp on it — this is that role.
About the Role
You’ll be responsible for all marketing activity across the business, reporting to the Finance Director and working closely with the Sales Manager. You’ll have full freedom to drive the brand, generate inbound leads, and scale awareness across film, music, and commercial markets.
We’re a creative business, and this is an on-site role — because being physically embedded in the studio will help you understand the product, connect with clients, and create content that resonates.
Key Responsibilities
* Plan and execute marketing campaigns that drive studio bookings and lead generation
* Manage SEO strategy with our external agency and oversee website optimisation
* Own and maintain our HubSpot CRM: email workflows, automation, and segmentation
* Develop content for and manage social media channels
* Coordinate events, partnerships, and collaborations with production companies
* Create case studies, studio brochures, and branded assets
* Oversee media and PR outreach, including speaking opportunities and press
* Ensure brand consistency across every touchpoint — from team apparel to digital content
* Track performance and report on marketing ROI to senior stakeholders
Who We’re Looking For
You’re a strategic yet hands-on marketer who loves building from scratch. You’ve got the creative instincts of a storyteller and the mindset of a performance marketer. Ideally, you've worked in a studio, production company, or creative business — and understand how to communicate with producers, creatives, and brand leads.
You’ll likely have:
* 3+ years in marketing, ideally in a film, media, or creative environment
* Strong knowledge of SEO, digital, and paid media
* Experience managing CRM platforms like HubSpot
* A content and social mindset — with excellent copy and brand awareness
* An entrepreneurial drive and the ability to manage multiple projects
* A competitive edge — perhaps from sport, performance, or high-pressure work
Why Now? Why Sugar?
We’re a small but fast-growing business with big ambitions — and we’re entering a new chapter. You’ll be the one to shape how we’re seen, how we scale, and how we grow. There’s a proven product, a strong client base, and a blank canvas ready for your vision.
