Who we are | Ko wai matou
The University of Otago is New Zealand's first and oldest university, with a strong reputation for teaching and research and a global reach. With more than 20,000 students and 4,000 staff across campuses nationwide, we're also one of the country's largest and most recognised organisations.
The Marketing Services team plays a key role in attracting students and building Otago's reputation across New Zealand and internationally.
The role | Te mahi
Progress your marketing career and help shape how Otago connects with future students.
As a Marketing Coordinator, you'll get stuck into real campaigns from day one-working alongside Marketing Specialists and Advisers to plan, deliver, and measure activity across digital, social, and traditional channels.
You'll contribute ideas, coordinate campaign activity, manage marketing materials, and track performance to see what works (and what doesn't). No two days are the same and that's exactly how we like it.
This is an ideal role for someone early in their career who wants to learn fast, gain hands-on experience, and build a strong foundation in marketing.
Your skills and experience | Ka pukeka me ka wheako
We're looking for someone early in their marketing career who is organised, proactive, and keen to learn. You'll also bring:
1 to 3 years' experience supporting marketing campaigns and activities (exceptional graduates considered)
A working knowledge of digital, social, and marketing tools
Strong organisation and attention to detail
Clear communication skills
A collaborative approach and willingness to get involved
Energy, curiosity, and a drive to build your marketing career
Cultural competency, and knowledge of Maori or Pacific markets and communities, would be an advantage.
