Job Description

About Wildpark Entertainment

Wildpark Entertainment is an award-winning London-based live entertainment company. We create shows and events with the aim to give our fabulous audiences a great night out. Current productions include Unfortunate: The Untold Story of Ursula the Sea Witch, Murder She Didn't Write: The Improvised Murder Mystery, Lovestuck: A New Comedy Musical and multiple productions in development.

We are looking for a Marketing Manager to lead on the marketing of our productions in partnership with the venues and agencies we work with, as well as leading on the marketing for Wildpark as a production company. This is an exciting time for someone to join our fast-growing company and be a key part of taking our productions to the next level, both within the UK and internationally.

Job Description

This role has three strands:

  • Marketing our productions to audiences, including creating and managing marketing campaigns and conducting market research for new shows in development (b2c)
  • Marketing Wildpark Entertainment's services (including general management services) to potential and existing clients, and marketing both Wildpark and our shows to venues, investors and international partners and licensors (b2b)
  • Identifying and establishing additional revenue streams and marketing opportunities, including merchandising, promotions, partnerships, sponsorship, audience packages, and assisting in the creation and marketing of cast albums, podcasts, and live performance capture

We regularly work with external agencies on our productions, whether that be full-service marketing agencies or agencies who will deliver one element of a marketing campaign (e.g. paid media agencies). We also run some marketing campaigns for productions completely in-house, specifically on one-nighter tours and events, and for shows at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe.
