External Communications Manager

Surrey | Hybrid Working

Are you a creative communications professional with a passion for building brands, creating engaging content and delivering impactful marketing campaigns?

We’re recruiting an External Communications Manager on behalf of a highly respected international asset finance organisation. This is an exciting opportunity to shape and enhance the external profile of an ambitious business, helping to drive brand awareness, strengthen customer and partner engagement and support commercial growth across multiple business sectors.

Working closely with the Head of Marketing & Communications, you’ll take ownership of external communications strategy and deliver engaging campaigns that position the business as a trusted market leader.

This is a varied, hands-on position where no two days are the same.

You’ll develop and deliver integrated communications campaigns across digital, social media, PR, website content, advertising and email marketing. You’ll create compelling content including articles, case studies, news stories and thought leadership pieces while managing relationships with media partners and industry associations.

You’ll also work closely with Sales, Customer Experience and senior stakeholders to produce marketing materials, support introducer communications, oversee LinkedIn activity, manage website content and ensure all communications remain consistent with the company’s brand identity.

This is an excellent opportunity for someone who enjoys combining strategic planning with creative delivery and wants to make a visible impact within a growing business.

• Proven B2B marketing and communications experience.
• Excellent copywriting and content creation skills.
• Experience developing integrated communications campaigns across multiple channels.
• Strong digital marketing and social media knowledge, particularly LinkedIn.
• PR and media relations experience.
• The ability to manage multiple projects and priorities simultaneously.
• Excellent stakeholder management and influencing skills.
• A proactive, organised approach with strong project management capability.
• Experience within financial services or a regulated environment would be advantageous but is not essential.

What’s On Offer

• Join a respected international financial services organisation with ambitious growth plans.
• Hybrid working.
• Opportunity to shape the company’s external brand and communications strategy.
• A varied role with real autonomy and visibility across the business.
• Competitive salary and benefits package.
