Listing live now. We believe great workplaces are built on great people. We are looking for a Marketing Executive in Midrand, and we encourage applicants from across Gauteng to consider this opportunity.
Overview
This Marketing Executive role sits within the marketing jobs function in Midrand. It offers a defined scope, clear measures of success, and the support of an experienced team across Gauteng.
Expect a structured first ninety days, with onboarding milestones, regular check-ins, and an early focus on getting comfortable with the systems and processes that underpin the Midrand team.
Stakeholders for this position include line managers, peers across the marketing jobs team and trusted external partners. Building those relationships early makes the next twelve months in Midrand much easier.
A Typical Day
You usually start by scanning campaign dashboards over coffee, checking performance against targets and flagging anything that needs attention. Mornings are often given to creative work — briefing designers, refining copy, planning the next content drop — while afternoons mix stakeholder meetings, agency calls and a steady stream of approvals. In between, you’re watching what competitors are doing, listening to what customers are saying online, and shaping the next set of experiments to push the brand forward.
No two days look exactly the same — and that variety is part of what keeps the role engaging for the right candidate in Midrand.
The Midrand office buzzes through peak hours and settles into focused, productive lulls in between, giving you time to plan and reset before the next stretch of work.
Where You’ll Work
Practically speaking, the environment is creative, deadline-driven and data-aware. Cross-functional work with sales, product and design is the norm, and ideas are tested with real audiences quickly.
Health, safety and well-being are taken seriously. Current policies and procedures are maintained, and the Midrand site adheres to the standards expected of a responsible South African employer.
On top of that, the working environment is set up to give the team the focus needed for deeper work, while keeping collaboration and quick problem-solving close at hand.
Daily Duties
- Plan and execute integrated marketing campaigns across digital and traditional channels
- Ensure all marketing complies with POPIA and consumer protection codes
- Optimise organic search performance through on-page and technical SEO
- Coordinate events, sponsorships and community activations
- Brief and manage external creative, media and PR agencies
- Manage paid media budgets across Google, Meta and LinkedIn
Who We’re Looking For
- Strong copywriting skills with a portfolio of published work
- Working knowledge of CMS platforms (WordPress preferred)
- Awareness of POPIA and consumer protection requirements
- Strong project management and organisational skills
- Familiarity with the South African media and influencer landscape
- Creative thinker who can also analyse data and report on ROI
