Welcome to the Marketing Society!

 

Whether you study marketing or simply have an interest in it, everyone is welcome.

Our Marketing Society is a space for students who want to explore marketing in a practical, supportive, and engaging way. Alongside regular socials, we offer opportunities to learn key marketing skills, hear from industry professionals, and gain hands-on experience working on real projects.

A core part of the society is our three flagship schemes, where members can take part in marketing competitions designed to reflect real-world work. Through these competitions, students work in teams to create and present marketing campaigns for local businesses, student-managed businesses, and other societies. This allows members to gain meaningful experience, develop confidence, and build evidence of real marketing work they can use in applications and interviews.

Alongside our schemes, members can get involved in some of the events we have planned:

• Practical workshops, including hands-on Canva training, content creation, and branding
• Guest speaker events with marketing professionals
• Case study nights analysing real marketing campaigns
• Marketing quizzes and creative challenge nights, designed to test strategy and creativity
• Social events to meet like-minded students and build a strong network

Career development is a core part of the society. With the help of our Careers and Employability Officer, members receive:

• One-to-one career guidance sessions
• Workshops on building a professional CV and LinkedIn profile
• Advice on internships, industry years, and graduate roles

Whether you’re completely new to marketing or aiming for a career in the industry, our Marketing Society gives you the skills, experience, and support to take the next step with confidence.
