Job Description

The Regional Marketing Specialist, 12-month agreement – UK/I & ANZHK plays a key role in executing integrated marketing initiatives that drive customer engagement, retention, and revenue expansion across the United Kingdom, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand and Hong Kong for our portfolio of integrity and assessment solutions. Reporting to the Sr. Manager, Regional Marketing, this role works in collaboration with global marketing, sales, customer experience and product teams.  Responsibilities include supporting marketing strategy development, localizing campaigns, managing third-party partnerships, and ensuring high-quality, market-relevant execution across both regions.
