Helping to plan, build and coordinate high-performing marketing campaigns across channels such as Google Ads, Meta, email and SEO
Bringing campaigns together by working with our specialist team, for example, briefing our content executive on shoots, our designer on the visuals, and our social and PPC teams on getting everything live for your campaigns.
Digging into data and analytics to understand what's working and where we can continuously make things better for our clients.
Helping construct clear client reports that turn the numbers into a story and actionable insights.
Sitting in on client conversations and, over time, building your own valuable relationships with clients.
Getting to understand each client's business, so when they hit a challenge, you can help work out how we can solve it.
Researching markets, competitors and latest trends to keep our thinking sharp.
Helping keep projects organised and running efficiently.
Combining the analytical and the creative, from SEO work and analysing performance data to spotting where we can improve across channels.
Being proactive and confident to speak up, putting ideas forward and helping make our agency better and better.
Training:Training will take place at our studio in Poringland, Norwich, during working hours. Depending on your existing experience, you'll work towards either the Level 3 Multi-Channel Marketer or the Level 4 Marketing Executive apprenticeship, both delivered by Cambridge Marketing College and both including AI marketing training.
Training is delivered through structured online learning, including tutor-led webinars, online classes and a digital learning platform with study resources and progress tracking. You'll spend a minimum of 6 hours of your working week on off-the-job training. As all learning is delivered online, there is no need to travel to a college.Training Outcome:On successful completion of the apprenticeship, our goal is to develop you into a fully fledged Digital Marketing Executive, taking ownership of client accounts and running multi-channel campaigns independently.
From there, the natural progression is towards a senior executive or account management role, coordinating larger campaigns and mentoring newer team members, and in time towards a strategic or managerial position as the agency grows. For the right person, there's also the opportunity to progress onto further qualifications, such as the Level 4 Marketing Executive or Level 6 Communications Manager apprenticeship, to support that journey.
We're not looking for someone for the short term. We want to find the right person to invest in for the long term, and to support their continued growth and career development with us.Employer Description:Our clients' success is our business. For us that's a commitment, not a tagline.
Pollard Media is a full-service marketing agency based in Norwich, Norfolk, and is a Google and Meta Partner. We're not a big, faceless agency, and that's exactly why our clients choose us. We work with a select number of businesses so we can stay fully invested in every one.
We deliver bespoke strategy, sharp creative execution, and a team that operates like part of the client's business rather than another supplier. We believe marketing should be clear, honest and effective. No jargon, no smoke and mirrors, no set-it-and-forget-it campaigns. Just thoughtful work that actually moves the needle.
We started as a side hustle in 2019 and grew into a full-service agency by doing things differently. We listened, we showed up, we treated every client's business like it was our own. That approach hasn't changed. If anything, it's become more central to who we are.
Our team is close-knit by design, and we believe in fairness. Through our Single Sector Area Promise, we work with only one business per sector in each area, so we never work with a client's direct competitor. When we're in a client's corner, we're fully in it.
We bring that same commitment to the people we hire. As an apprentice with us, you'll be right at the heart of delivering that success for our clients, doing real, varied work across strategy, social media, Google Ads, SEO, websites and content. And just as we invest in our clients, we'll invest in you, backing you to learn, grow and build a long-term career with us.Working Hours :Monday to Friday 9:30 am to 5:00 pm.Skills: Communication skills,IT skills,Attention to detail,Organisation skills,Customer care skills,Problem solving skills,Number skills,Analytical skills,Logical,Team working,Creative,Initiative,Patience,Analytical thinking,Proactive approach,Confident meeting new people,Curious & eager to learn,Personable....Read more...

PhD‑Level Ultrasound Technology Consultant – Cambridge
A prominent medical technology innovator in Cambridge is seeking a PhD‑level ultrasound specialist to help drive the development of next‑generation surgical and interventional devices. The organisation has a long-standing reputation for transforming complex scientific challenges into commercially successful products and works extensively across healthcare, life sciences and the wider physical sciences.
You would be joining a culture that values curiosity, open collaboration and entrepreneurial thinking. It is an environment where scientific creativity is encouraged, ideas are shared freely and individuals are given the space to shape projects and influence technical direction.
This position is ideal for someone who wants to play a central role in advancing surgical technology. The work spans the development of sophisticated medical systems, including robotic surgical platforms and intelligent instruments with integrated sensing, all designed to support clinicians in delivering safer and more effective procedures. You will take responsibility for high‑impact technical programmes, combining scientific depth with commercial awareness, and you will apply your ultrasound expertise across the full innovation pathway, from early feasibility studies through to preparing products for market.
A key part of the role involves working closely with partner organisations to define technical strategy, strengthen long‑term relationships and deliver meaningful outcomes. As you progress, you will have opportunities to build your profile within the surgical technology community and contribute to shaping future industry direction. Each project offers the chance to broaden your scientific knowledge, develop leadership capability and see your work translate into real clinical benefit. Candidates previously placed with this organisation have consistently advanced their careers and expanded their responsibilities.
You will thrive in this role if you enjoy working within multidisciplinary teams and value an environment where rigorous thinking and open discussion are central to the way problems are solved. A strong foundation in ultrasound is essential, gained through a PhD, postdoctoral research or relevant industrial experience. The organisation welcomes applications from recent PhD graduates as well as individuals with early‑career industry experience. Knowledge in areas such as transducer design, ultrasound signal processing, high‑speed electronics, image segmentation, regulatory standards like EN 60601 and metrology techniques including scanning hydrophones will be particularly valuable.

Due to the growth of a leading Medical Devices organisation, we are currently seeking a Senior Mechanical Engineer, Project Manager, Medical Devices Inventor, or Mechanical Design Consultant for a newly approved role.

You will collaborate with other experts in Medical Devices who have backgrounds in Mechanical Engineering, Mechanical Design, Electronics Design, Electronics Engineering, Physical Engineering, Biomedical Sciences, and various other skills essential for inventing Medical Technology. Consequently, teamwork will be crucial.
In this role, you will lead projects, necessitating experience as a consultant, project manager, or another role involving interactions with third parties. Additionally, you will apply your skills hands-on, directly contributing to the development of new Medical Devices.
We require several years of experience in Mechanical Design of Medical Devices. Familiarity with any 3D CAD tool is acceptable, as we understand that you can be trained on the necessary tools when required. However, knowledge of SolidWorks would be advantageous.
Most individuals in similar roles hold a degree in a Mechanical Engineering field, but experience takes precedence.
In terms of experience, we welcome candidates ranging from those stepping up to a Senior Mechanical Engineer role to individuals with several years of experience as a Medical Devices Consultant or Senior Mechanical Engineer.
This organisation has an outstanding track record of fostering continuous learning to keep you at the forefront of the Medical Devices sector. Consequently, opportunities for career and skills development are always available.
In addition to these benefits, you will receive an excellent salary (commensurate with your level of experience), a substantial bonus, a generous pension plan, healthcare coverage, complimentary meals throughout the day, life assurance, access to social clubs, wellness programs, an onsite gym, and other exceptional perks that are not commonly offered by most companies.
We anticipate substantial interest in this role, so if you are interested, we recommend submitting your application promptly. The organisation is open to candidates with varying levels of experience. If you possess some of the required skills but not all, it may still be worth applying as training could be provided (though you must have industry experience as a Mechanical Engineer or Mechanical Designer for Medical Devices as a minimum).
For more information, please feel free to call Andrew Welsh, Director of Medical Devices Recruitment and Scientific Recruitment Specialist at Newton Colmore, at +44 121 268 2240. Alternatively, you can submit an application, and a member of our team at Newton Colmore will contact you.
