With a special focus on local and regional marketing, this Marketing Manager position has been developed to be a driving force in Tate’s central goal to expand our reach and relevance amongst new and diverse audiences.

You will be part of a high-performing, warm and friendly team, responsible for marketing the world-class offering at Tate St Ives. From events to our families’ programme, and from our critically acclaimed exhibitions to all the amazing art you can see in our Tate Collection galleries, you will be responsible for bringing the full Tate experience to life through imaginative, exciting and effective marketing campaigns.

At the heart of all you do will be a mission to bring new visitors through our doors, with a particular emphasis on local and regional audiences.

You will be a collaborative team player, with the people skills and diplomacy to deftly manage complex projects with multiple stakeholders. You will be comfortable juggling a busy workload, delegating to and coaching junior team members while maintaining rigorous oversight of project timelines and deliverables. With your strong ability to prioritise, you’ll remain organised under pressure.

You don’t need expert art knowledge, or a background in the arts, to excel in this role. Ever-curious and inspired by a cross-section of culture, your audience-focused, strategic mind is brimming with creative ideas for advertising, content and events drawing on your extensive marketing experience from any field.

Tate aims to attract and retain talented people from all backgrounds. We particularly encourage applications from Black, Asian, ethnic minority, and/or disabled applicants as these groups are currently underrepresented in the cultural sector.



Our jobs are like our galleries, open to all
