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.
