Marketing Coordinator

About the role

Christchurch Airport brings together people, places and experiences, and the marketing team helps communicate that story. This opportunity is for a Marketing Coordinator to join the organisation on a 12-month fixed-term contract. It is well suited to someone who wants to strengthen their marketing career in a supportive setting.

The position is practical and varied, with a mix of digital and offline work. You will help deliver customer-focused, well-organised, and on-brand campaigns and content across a range of channels.

Key responsibilities

• Act as an initial contact point for the team and liaise with internal and external stakeholders, including agencies and suppliers.
• Support the planning and coordination of campaigns, promotional materials, signage, and media placements.
• Maintain digital channels such as the website, social media accounts, and email marketing activity.
• Assist with event-related work.
• Run projects from the initial brief through execution and post-delivery review.
• Keep processes, budgets, and administrative tasks organised and on track.

Who this role may suit

This role could be a strong fit for someone who enjoys teamwork, is comfortable stepping in to help across different tasks, and brings a customer-first mindset. It will also suit someone who is highly organised, detail-oriented, and able to manage changing priorities with confidence.

It may appeal either to an early-career marketing professional looking to gain hands-on experience, or to someone with prior marketing exposure who is ready for a different challenge.

What you will bring

• A customer-centred approach and genuine interest in people, places, and experiences.
• Approximately 2 or more years of marketing experience, or equivalent transferable experience.
• Strong writing ability and the confidence to produce content for varied audiences and channels.
• Comfort working with digital marketing tools and platforms, especially social media and email marketing.
• Excellent planning and organisational skills with the ability to handle several deadlines at once.
• A proactive, positive, and collaborative style, with a willingness to support wherever needed.
• Experience with Campaign Monitor, Wrike, or Tealium would be an advantage.

Why join Christchurch Airport

You will be joining a collaborative, high-performing team that values quality work, strong relationships, and making a positive contribution to customers and the wider community. Fresh ideas and meaningful impact are valued here.
