Orbital Internet Group is an award-winning leader in the telecoms industry, with over 25 years of experience delivering exceptional service. Fuelled by rapid growth and a fresh injection of capital from our Private Equity Partners, we are poised to expand even further.
The Orbital Internet Group is home to three distinct brands: Orbital Net, Vfast Internet, and Vfast Parks, each offering tailored products and services to meet the diverse needs of our customers.
As we enter an exciting period of transformation, we're seeking dynamic and forward-thinking individuals to join our team and help shape the future of our business.
The hours for this role are Monday-Friday 10am - 3pm.
Summary
We have experienced huge growth and change in the last 18 months. Our marketing team is very busy and internal promotions have resulted in a vacancy becoming available.
The Marketing Co-ordinator role plays a vital part in our day to day operations. Acting as the solid foundations to our team, you will work to support the marketing team in its varying administrative tasks so we can keep to schedule across our many campaigns.
You will work with executives across the business to keep them updated and act as the internal representative for our team.
This role is not to be underestimated, and it is a role that comes with a lot of responsibility, without this function the team would really struggle to deliver the high objectives we set ourselves.
Candidate Profile & Attributes
We are looking for candidates who are adaptable, efficient, quick thinking and highly organised.
The marketing team must work in complete alignment to achieve success, we will work closely together daily so we chose to work with kind and open-minded characters who are supportive of diversity and equal opportunities. If you can see the funny side of things, that also helps a lot when things get a little stressful!
We are often the instigators of internal promotions and therefore tasked with bringing all our teams in the business together, to support campaigns and new projects. This is something that you should really enjoy as its important to bring a little joy into our workplace.
A methodical and approachable person would be most suited to this varied role. You should be the type of person who doesn’t need to wait for instruction, rather seizing the opportunity to be helpful whenever you see it.
Someone who can focus during busy times is essential as we work in a busy and thriving sales office so we are in amongst all the action and can best support those teams.
You should possess strong organisational skills and have experience working in a fast-paced environment. While knowledge of the telecoms industry is a plus, it’s not essential.

You'll take the lead in managing electronic files, proposing more efficient workflows, forward planning, and creating processes that enable a small team to handle large-scale projects. Attention to detail is key, and you should have high standards, ensuring that nothing falls short of expectations.
Effective communication is also vital. You'll need to engage clearly and concisely with internal stakeholders to ensure timely project delivery. Given that we rely on support from across the business, you should feel comfortable communicating regularly and following up with senior leaders.
Proficiency in the full Microsoft suite is essential, as you'll use these tools daily and should be able to demonstrate your expertise.
Foundational marketing knowledge is required and will facilitate you to execute this role to the highest standard.
