Manager (Integrated Marketing Manager), 1+1 year contract

[What the role is]

The Integrated Marketing Manager sits within EDB's Brand, Marketing and Communications Division, which drives Singapore's positioning as a premier global business destination.

This role requires a strategic thinker who can orchestrate multi-channel campaigns to help enhance search visibility, craft compelling narratives, develop content assets and creatives to engage target audiences across diverse touchpoints.

Examples of campaigns could include digital and event activations – for instance targeted email and paid advertising via various digital platforms or on-site events - to market Singapore as a great place for top talent to build their careers, or content creation and partnerships with media publishers to brand Singapore as a global sustainability hub. All campaign efforts serve to strengthen the Singapore business brand to international business executives, and may also serve to build EDB’s branding to both local and global audiences.

Our ideal candidate is someone excited about the power of integrated marketing and enjoys working with marketing technology and data to optimise campaigns. Being analytical, resourceful, adaptable, with the ability to perform both independently and as a team player are traits we look out for.

• Content Development & Creative Direction: Oversee the creation of compelling content assets and advertising creatives that resonate with target audiences.

• Digital Marketing & Performance Management: Implement keyword research and search optimisation techniques to enhance EDB's online visibility and organic reach. Manage paid campaigns across digital and social platforms. Provide regular reporting and insights to stakeholders, using data analytics to inform future campaign strategies and optimisation opportunities.

• Project Management: Manage project timelines, coordinate with external vendors, and ensure timely launch of campaigns within allocated budgets.
