Marketing Manager
Role Overview
Cawood provides analytical testing and scientific services across the agriculture, animal health and environmental sectors.
We are part of Ensign-Bickford Industries (EBI), a family-owned group of science and technology businesses with a long-term approach to creating value.
Our purpose at EBI is to deliver innovation that matters, for today and future generations.
We are looking for an experienced, commercially minded Marketing Manager to help Cawood deliver that purpose.
This is a significant, broad and hands-on marketing role.
As the dedicated marketing resource within Cawood, you will lead marketing activity across our Agriculture, Animal Health and Environment businesses, developing the strategy and then helping make it happen.
You will work directly with the Director of Product and collaborate extensively with commercial leaders, laboratory teams, scientists and technical specialists across Cawood.
You will also be part of the wider One EBI community, collaborating with marketing and creative colleagues across the group, including the Envirologix marketing team and internal graphic design resource, as well as managing specialist external agencies.
This is not a role for someone who only wants to manage marketing from a distance.
We are looking for someone who can think strategically, understand technically complex markets, and then roll up their sleeves to deliver.
What you will bring
We are interested in what you have achieved, not simply the titles you have held.
