We are looking for a Digital Marketing Specialist to join the British Psychological Society’s friendly and professional Marketing team. In this role, you’ll support the delivery of impactful digital marketing activity that enhances the Society’s visibility, appeal and growth. It’s a great opportunity to help shape how a membership charity connects with its audiences across digital channels, as we continue to strengthen our digital capabilities.
About the Role
As Digital Marketing Specialist, you’ll play an equally important role across two core areas: paid digital advertising and email marketing, working closely with colleagues across channels. This is a hands-on role for a confident digital marketer who combines data, creativity and channel expertise to grow awareness, engagement and conversion across our products, including membership, professional registers and CPD.
You’ll own our Google Ads activity (including Ad Grants), run paid social campaigns, and manage our external agency across Meta, LinkedIn and TikTok – leading the work, reviewing performance and ensuring activity delivers against strategy.
You’ll also plan and deliver targeted email campaigns and automated journeys, writing compelling copy that drives member acquisition, retention and engagement.
Insight is central to the role: you’ll set up tracking, build reports, turn performance into clear recommendations and continually optimise activity. You’ll bring strong PPC expertise and SEO awareness (essential), solid email and copywriting skills, and an interest in using new tools - including AI - to work smarter and deliver impact.
What we’re looking for
We’re looking for an experienced digital marketer with proven hands‑on experience in paid media / PPC and email marketing.
You’ll be confident managing campaigns across Google Ads (including Ad Grants) and paid social platforms such as Meta, LinkedIn and TikTok, with a sharp eye on budget optimisation and return on advertising spend. You collaborate well with creative teams and external agencies, stay ahead of platform changes, and can translate performance data into actionable insight for a range of audiences.
You’ll bring strong working knowledge of Google Analytics, campaign tagging, conversion tracking and audience segmentation, alongside experience delivering email marketing campaigns and automated journeys. You’ll have a good understanding of SEO, landing page optimisation and GDPR best practices, and the ability to write clear, engaging copy across platforms.
Highly organised and collaborative, you’ll be comfortable owning multiple workstreams and combining analytical thinking with creativity. Formal marketing qualifications (particularly Google Ads certifications), CRM experience, familiarity with AI tools, and an interest or background in psychology would be an advantage.
Why Join Us?
We have a friendly, supportive and values led working culture with an excellent benefits package that includes:

We recognise that there is more to do to improve diversity across our organisation and we are actively working to make meaningful, long‑term change. We are committed to building a workforce that better reflects the communities we serve and to removing barriers that may prevent people from different backgrounds from joining, progressing and thriving with us.
Through inclusive policies, flexible working, fair recruitment practices and ongoing learning, we aim to create a supportive environment where everyone feels valued, respected and able to do their best work.
We actively encourage applications from people from under‑represented and diverse backgrounds, as we know a more diverse workforce will strengthen our organisation and help us deliver our mission more effectively.
Applications will only be considered if they include a CV, Cover Letter and answers to the screening questions.
Empowering people to thrive by using numeracy to open up opportunities and access brighter futures.
