Senior Marketing Manager - Galway - Permanent
We’re looking for a strategic and hands-on Senior Marketing Manager to oversee and unify the marketing efforts across a collection of hospitality venues in Galway. This role requires someone with solid experience in the sector, a sharp eye for detail, and a genuine appreciation for what makes great hospitality experiences memorable.
Responsibilities:
Develop and execute marketing plans that support each venue’s commercial goals and character.
Lead on the design, promotion, and delivery of events — from live entertainment and food-focused promotions to seasonal campaigns.
Work closely with operations teams to ensure all marketing activity is timely, practical, and drives measurable results.
Manage all digital channels, including social media, email marketing, websites, and advertising campaigns.
Maintain and evolve each venue’s visual identity and tone of voice, ensuring brand consistency without losing individuality.
Build partnerships with local organisations, promoters, and media to increase visibility and footfall.
Monitor performance data, generate regular reports, and make clear, evidence-based recommendations.
Lead and support a small in-house marketing team — setting direction, providing mentorship, managing workloads, and fostering professional growth.
Coordinate with external designers, photographers, and digital specialists.
Requirements:
At least 5 years’ experience in a senior marketing role within hospitality, events, or related sectors.
Proven track record in creating, marketing, and managing events that attract a public audience.
Strong understanding of how hospitality brands connect with customers — in person, online, and in the local community.
Confident communicator, able to write clearly, brief others effectively, and present ideas to stakeholders.
Working knowledge of digital tools including Meta Business Suite, Google Ads, email platforms, and basic website CMS systems.
Comfortable managing budgets, timelines, and competing priorities.
Desirable:
Knowledge of the Galway hospitality scene.
Experience launching new venues or repositioning existing brands.
Skills in content creation, such as photography, design (e.g. Canva or Adobe), or video editing.
