Marketing Executive

The organisation is recruiting a Marketing Executive for its Lichtenburg operation. The role forms part of a wider marketing jobs portfolio across North West.

About the Opportunity

This Marketing Executive role sits within the marketing jobs function in Lichtenburg. It offers a defined scope, clear measures of success, and the support of an experienced team across North West.

Communication runs both ways. Managers across the marketing jobs team in North West make time for one-to-ones, and people are expected to speak up early when something needs attention.

Tools, systems and information are there to support the role rather than slow it down. The company continues to invest in the technology that backs its Lichtenburg teams, and the new Marketing Executive will feel that from the first week.

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 Lichtenburg much easier.

In addition, the role has been written to be sustainable, not just busy. Strong output is expected, and managers in Lichtenburg also pay attention to recovery, learning and the kind of breathing room that keeps people doing good work over time.

Meet the Team

You will join a tight-knit, collaborative team that knows the marketing jobs side of the business inside out. The Lichtenburg group is a healthy mix of experienced operators and newer joiners, all of whom share a strong commitment to delivery and to one another.

Notably, the team mix in Lichtenburg reflects a balance of experienced operators and emerging talent, with deliberate space for diverse voices and backgrounds.

Line management is hands-on without being heavy. Expect regular one-to-ones, honest feedback and the support needed to do good work consistently.

Your Future Here

Beyond that, this role can grow with you. Strong performers in the marketing jobs team in Lichtenburg have moved into senior, supervisory and specialist positions, and that journey is supported through coaching, training and exposure to bigger projects.

Growth conversations happen at a regular cadence — not just at year-end — so the path forward stays current and realistic for every Lichtenburg team member.

Training is a mix of formal courses, structured on-the-job learning and exposure to broader projects, all geared at building practical skills.

Internal mobility is encouraged. People who start in Lichtenburg have moved into roles in other branches, specialist functions and project teams across North West.
