Association of British Orchestras

Marketing Assistant

Royal Philharmonic Orchestra £26,500 - £29,000 Closing date 07 December 2026
Help us bring the widest possible audience to Royal Philharmonic Orchestra (RPO) concerts in London as our new Marketing Assistant. We’re looking for someone who thrives on getting the details right: you’ll be organised, write well and work accurately, with close attention to detail. You’ll also be confident with digital tools and able to keep several tasks and deadlines on track.

You will carry out much of the day-to-day delivery of our campaigns: building and sending emails, publishing events and updates on the website, supporting social media, helping to book advertising and distribution, and gathering content for and proofreading programmes. You will also help promote our groups, schools, RPO Club and Brent membership schemes, and learn the basics of our box office system so you can support the team during busy on-sale periods.

The RPO plays around 200 concerts a season, from the Royal Albert Hall and Cadogan Hall to BOXPARK Wembley and venues across the UK. You will contribute to how we reach London audiences, feeding in creative ideas and what you notice is working.

You’ll report to the Senior Marketing Manager and work across the whole marketing team, supporting colleagues in digital, design and ticketing, building a broad understanding of how campaigns come together. We’ll train you on our systems, with the opportunity to develop as your experience grows. Your experience can come from work, study or volunteering; no degree is required. An interest in music and the arts is a plus. Some evening and weekend attendance at concerts is required, with time off in lieu.
