Using performance data to understand what is working and help improve future activity
Training:You'll work towards the Level 3 Content Creator apprenticeship, with 13 months of learning followed by End Point Assessment.
The programme is a particularly good fit for this role because it is focused on developing and creating content across digital, social, video, photography and written formats, with an emphasis on audience engagement and using content to support marketing and business objectives.

The creative and digital marketing industry
Content planning and creation
Social media activity
Copywriting
Media production, including videography and photography
SEO and user experience
