Our strategy is based on an omni-channel approach, with a marketing comms plan per product. In addition we operate a parent brand level marketing plan. This includes events, webinars, PR, e-campaigns, social, websites, PPC, offline and online collateral, content marketing, awards and working with membership organisations. Our team consists of Marketing Directors, Managers, Execs and some specialist roles in Events and CRM analysis.

You will be joining the company at a very exciting time, marketing a range of innovative, award winning products. Aptem is growing rapidly and is already the leading provider in apprenticeship sector. If you want to be part of a team that passionately believes in delivering technology enabling population scale employment and training programmes that improve lives, we would love to hear from you.
