Peer endorsement continues to grow in importance as an influencer of purchasing decisions, and this agency, which is part of a bigger group and has major backing, is right at the forefront of the burgeoning advocacy market. Due to continued growth, they now require customer reference specialists at all levels – principally AE and AM - to work as part of their busy team offering a wide-ranging, high-quality content driven service to blue-chip companies across the globe. The format varies – everything from PDF to video, hybrid, web-text and white paper – but the emphasis is on high quality testimonials and support materials, and the objective is to effectively service diverse needs in an informative, professional, cost-efficient and timely manner, helping clients to win more business, and in so doing, further establish the agency as market leaders in this specialist area.

Specific responsibilities include:

- case study creation
- sales and marketing reference
- help desk support
- customer reference database management
- customer reference programme consultancy
- incentive and reward programmes
- e-newsletters and other comms

A marketing/PR agency background would be ideal for these roles, and in particular, strong communication (written and verbal), organisation and project management skills are required. A background in technology or corporate comms would be particularly useful, but is not essential as long as you have the required skills, a positive approach, a strong customer service ethic, and a belief in the power of customer advocacy!

This is a dynamic, forward-looking business and the prospects within it are exceptional for the right individuals. The specific level of experience is unimportant. What counts is ability, attitude and commitment!
