If you're an ambitious marketer, hungry to shape the direction of a new brand, break open a new category and have real social impact in the process, you're in the right place.

We're looking for a marketing manager with a creative flair to join the Customer Marketing Team. As part of this team, you'll inspire people to think differently about money and how they plan for their future. You'll bring to life the benefits of our brilliant coaches and services.

You'll be responsible for creating big, bold content campaigns, which will attract the attention of customers and inspire them to take action.

About Octopus Money

At Octopus Money, we're on a mission to make money advice accessible to all – because the right advice can turn your life dreams into reality.

The facts are alarming: half of Brits reach retirement age without enough money to live the life they want, financial stress is a leading cause of poor mental health and only 8% of us have access to 1-to-1 advice.

There's plenty of information out there, but most of us just wish that someone we trust would tell us what to do with our money!

With Octopus, you get a personalised plan and a friendly expert to help you make it happen. We combine advisers, coaches and technology to understand your situation and recommend the right steps for your savings, investments, pensions and more. Then, we make it easy to invest in a custom portfolio, managed by experts.

We believe everyone deserves personal, 1-to-1 advice with their money.

The role and opportunity

The Customer Marketing Manager will be a core role within the Customer Marketing team. Designing, building and optimising campaigns focused on inspiring people to think differently about money and how they plan for their future. Working closely with our copywriter, designer and email marketing exec you'll be leading the charge on building and optimising content campaigns to convert customers into our services (e.g. financial planning, mortgages, investing and pension consolidation).
