Come and work with us!
Hey you, you love digital marketing right? Do you like games? How about games used for marketing? You do!? Read on…
Peek & Poke are a Sheffield based digital studio making browser-based games for a variety of businesses, charities and media companies that want to promote their brand and engage with their audience in fun and interesting ways.
We believe very strongly that these games must be first and foremost fun to play, but they also need to work hard as a marketing tool to deliver excellent return on investment for the brands that commission them. It’s our aim to deliver positive experiences for the players and lasting connections for the brands.
The games are mostly delivered online, but also offline in a range of devices for use at tradeshows or in-store (e.g. iPads, touch-screens, Arcade Machines, etc.).
While we have had some steady growth over the past few years, we have ambitious plans for 2021.
We’re looking to hire an enthusiastic content marketer to help us spread the word about who we are and what we do to other like-minded marketers working at brands and agencies.
We need someone who understands the challenges marketers face in their role, knows where they spend their time online and how to speak their language. Most importantly, we’re looking for someone who can use their own experience as a marketer and story-teller to help educate our audience on how to get the most from using games in their own marketing.
You’ll have a passion for digital marketing with excellent communication skills meaning that you’re as comfortable researching and writing articles for a blog as you are growing a social media community or experimenting with refining AdWords campaigns. As an unashamed marketing geek you’ll know your CMSs from your CPMs, your CTRs from your CTAs, the PPCs from the… well, you get the idea.
Working as part of our small but mighty team you’ll report to the Head of Marketing & Digital Marketing Manager.
The role is ordinarily based at our Sheffield offices, however due to the current COVID situation the role will be remote until further notice and government guidance changes.
There will be times when you’ll be required to travel to exhibitions or networking events outside your normal working hours as and when the current restrictions are lifted.
We are a hard-working, friendly team who enjoy what we do. Many of us are parents so having flexible working hours is important to us. Team drinks and trips to the board-game café are fairly regular events and we all enjoy cakes and biscuits to keep us going through the day at our SUM Studios home.
Dependant on experience, but somewhere in the range of £20K to £25K (plus pension).
We would happily consider part-time applicants as well as full-time.
Please write us an informal letter or short story (At least 500 words) telling us a bit about you and your employment history to date, describing why you feel your experience makes you a great fit for this role. Email it along with your CV to jobs@peekandpoke.com.
If you have any further questions about the role in the meantime, please feel free to email us or call 0114 399 1011.
Closing date for applications is 14th February 2021. 💓
