Most job ads say "fast-paced" and "exciting opportunity." So instead of that, here’s what it’s really like… We're a tiny consultancy - right now, that means big impact, zero bureaucracy, and the chance to shape what this business becomes. We specialise in two things: HubSpot and Email. We help businesses with everything HubSpot, from implementations to optimisations and rebuilds to workshops and training - we LOVE HubSpot, so you need to, too. Then there is the email side, we have education and consultancy services that support teams and businesses transforming their email marketing into a powerful function that delivers incredible results and impact (you will not be involved in this). We're looking for someone who wants to be part of building something, not just working for something. This is as close to founding a business as you can get without actually founding one. You'll have real ownership, real responsibility, and a front-row seat, and active hand in taking us to the next level. If you've ever wanted to see what it feels like to help build a business from the inside, this is it. What the role actually looks like: The majority of your time will be in our client’s HubSpot accounts, working with our Founder Beth, executing the strategy & transformation we’ve mapped out. This will be across: • HubSpot implementations, • HubSpot audits, • HubSpot optimisations, • Training, • Solution design across all business operations, not just marketing. But you'll also be the person who keeps your project running! That means owning our project management, managing our own HubSpot setup, helping with new business when we need, and you will be out of your comfort zone doing new things! No two weeks will look the same. That's not a warning - it's the point.
