Hire a marketing apprentice in Leamington Spa
Games studios, agencies and professional firms — we help Leamington employers build marketing capability from our base ten minutes down the road in Coventry.
Leamington has an unusual business mix for a town its size: one of the UK's densest clusters of video-games development, a strong agency and creative scene alongside it, and a base of professional and owner-managed firms that has been there far longer than either. It also sits inside the Coventry and Warwick travel-to-work area, which makes it one of the easier places in the region to recruit into.
What most of those businesses have in common is that marketing is either everybody's job or nobody's. An apprentice makes it somebody's.
This works well for Leamington employers who are
- Games studios and tech businesses who need community, content and campaign work done consistently rather than in bursts around a release
- Agencies building junior capability instead of buying it in at senior rates
- Professional firms — legal, financial, property — where marketing sits awkwardly between partners and admin
- Owner-managed businesses in the town whose marketing has never had a dedicated person
Recruitment is included
We source and shortlist candidates for you at no cost, and Leamington draws on both the Coventry and Warwick pools, so the shortlist is usually deeper than employers expect. See who is currently available near your postcode on the talent matching page.
What your apprentice learns
Our Multi-Channel Marketer apprenticeship covers marketing theory, understanding your customer, marketing planning, campaign management with data analysis, marketing tactics including website, SEO and email, content creation, branding and marketing sustainability — with a Chartered Institute of Marketing qualification embedded at no extra cost. Teaching is delivered remotely, so nobody loses a day a week to travel. See the full twelve-month journey.
What it costs
For apprentices under 25, the training is 100% government-funded — you pay nothing towards it. For apprentices aged 25 and over, it's 95% funded. Depending on who you hire, you may also qualify for hiring incentives worth thousands, including the Youth Jobs Grant.
The three worked examples on what a marketing apprentice costs will give you a figure in about a minute, or we can give you exact numbers for your business on a call.
