Marketing Placement Programme

About The Role

At Motability Operations, We support people with disabilities to achieve greater independence, by giving them access to affordable and worry-free mobility through the Motability Scheme. We do that by leasing cars, Wheelchair Accessible Vehicles (WAVs), scooters and powered wheelchairs to over 640,000 disabled customers across the UK.

At the end that lease, every car is returned and we’re responsible for selling it back into the motoring trade through our flagship platform mfldirect (mfldirect.co.uk) and sister website mfldirectAuction (mfldirectAuction.co.uk) that have a combined turnover of approximately £2.2bn.

Last year we completed a successful re-platforming of mfldirect, which has seen a positive impact on our customers, but that’s just the start of the story.

We have bold plans for our brand, our tone of voice and our content.

And we’re inviting a student to join us for an up-close hands-on experience of this journey, as we develop and execute an ambitious brand and content strategy to grow our authority, demonstrate our authenticity and build recognition, trust, and confidence in our audiences.

A placement in the VRM Content team will give you a unique opportunity to be involved in lots of different aspects of content and digital marketing, to hone your skills and get some great experience to start building your career in marketing.

If you would like to find out what working in these areas entails, we’d love to hear from you!

About You

You’ll need to be on track to gain a minimum 2:1 degree (in any subject) to qualify for the Content Placement Programme. We are looking for candidates who:

Have a keen interest in brand communications, storytelling and digital marketing.
Are team players, eager to get involved and proactive in making the most of every opportunity.
Have strong communication skills both written and verbal, with excellent attention to detail.
Have an enthusiastic ‘can do’ attitude, passionate about your personal and professional development.

Our application process

Our process is simple - just submit your CV and answer a few short questions via video assessment. We are interested in you as a person, so we won't make you sit through any psychometric tests, but this means your initial application needs to impress our recruitment team. If it does, here's what happens next:

  • We will invite you to an interview via Teams
  • If successful, you will then be invited to an Assessment Centre (This involves you presenting and interviewing with the team)
  • Available to start July 2023

About The Company

Motability Operations is a unique organisation, virtually one of a kind. We combine a strong sense of purpose with a real commercial edge to ensure we provide the best possible worry-free mobility solutions to over650,000 customers and their families across the UK. Customers exchange their higher rate mobility allowance to lease a range of affordable vehicles (cars, wheelchair accessible vehicles, scooters, and powered wheelchairs) with insurance, maintenance and breakdown assistance included.

We are the largest car fleet operator in the UK (purchasing around10% of all the new cars sold in the UK) and work with a network of around 5,000car dealers and all the major manufacturers) and our Vehicle Remarketing Division sells every car that is handed back by our Motability customers.

We sell over 230,000 cars a year with 80% of these through our two mfldirect websites and 20% through traditional auction centres, which makes us the largest supplier of single-source vehicles back into the used car market.

The Content Team is part of the Vehicle Remarketing Digital Solutions Team, a large team of professionals with skillsets across Product Management, Development, Business Delivery, User Experience, Marketing & Communications, Analysis & Performance measurement.

Together we work with our colleagues across Vehicle Remarketing, other key stakeholders across the business and various partner agencies to deliver projects, products and services that deliver the best possible customer experience, along with content and campaigns that drive engagement with mfldirect and our supporting offerings.
