The posting

Marketing & Design Assistant

Location: Fully Remote — South Africa

Working Hours: UK business hours

Experience Level: Mid-level, generalist marketing/design background

About the Role

We're recruiting on behalf of a marketing agency for a Marketing & Design Assistant to take over a varied, multi-skilled role spanning website design, email marketing, cold email copywriting, GoHighLevel CRM management, and general design/marketing support across multiple client accounts.

This is a broad, hands-on role suited to someone comfortable switching between website builds, email campaigns, copywriting and CRM workflows — rather than a specialist in just one area.

Key Responsibilities

Google Business Profile Posts

  • Create and design Google Business Profile posts for client accounts based on keywords/topics supplied by the Account Manager.
  • Adapt content and templates to suit each client's business and branding.
  • Make amendments to posts or designs as requested.

Website Design & Updates

  • Design new websites and pages, and update existing ones, primarily using WordPress and Elementor/Elementor Pro.
  • Update images, text, buttons, sections and other page elements.
  • Ensure sites are visually consistent with client branding and fully responsive across desktop, tablet and mobile.
  • Turn existing designs or briefs into finished, professional pages.
  • Some experience with website builders outside WordPress/Elementor (e.g. Wix) is preferred.

Email Marketing (Client Account Management)

  • Manage end-to-end email marketing for an e-commerce client, including: Campaigns: creating newsletters, promotions and product-focused emails; planning send times; reviewing performance. Automations: building and improving automated sequences (e.g. abandoned basket flows) triggered by customer behaviour. Forms/List Growth: managing website sign-up forms/pop-ups and monitoring conversion rates.
  • Focus on increasing email-driven revenue, maintaining list health, and improving results based on performance data.

Cold Email / Outbound Copywriting

  • Write and improve cold email copy and subject lines to increase positive reply rates (not send volume).
  • Review existing sequences, develop new messaging approaches, and plan A/B tests.
  • Hand over finished copy, sequence structure and testing plans to the team member responsible for implementation; not responsible for building or amending live campaigns directly.

GoHighLevel (GHL) – CRM & Workflows

  • Set up and manage workflows/automations within client GHL sub-accounts.
  • Upload and organise leads/contacts, ensuring they enter the correct campaigns.
  • Amend existing workflows and troubleshoot smaller issues as needed.

SEO Reporting

  • Review and correct SEO reports generated via the agency's reporting system, investigating and fixing errors before reports are sent to clients.

General Design & Marketing Support

  • Handle ad-hoc design and marketing tasks — graphics, templates, marketing materials, small website amendments — across various client accounts.
  • Manage a varied daily workload, prioritise effectively, and ask questions when briefs are unclear.

What We're Looking For

Essential

  • Experience with WordPress and Elementor/Elementor Pro.
  • Website design skills, including responsive design.
  • Basic graphic design ability and experience creating templates.
  • Email marketing experience — campaigns, automations and list/form management.
  • Marketing and cold email copywriting skills.
  • Understanding of email performance metrics.
  • Comfortable managing multiple clients and tasks simultaneously.
  • Able to work from briefs/instructions and flag questions proactively.

Advantageous

  • Experience with Wix or other website builders.
  • Google Business Profile / SEO-focused content experience.
  • GoHighLevel or comparable CRM/workflow automation experience.
  • Familiarity with SEO reporting tools.

Remote Work Requirements

Applicants must:

  • Be based in South Africa.
  • Have a reliable laptop or PC.
  • Have stable internet and backup power.
  • Have a quiet workspace and be available during UK business hours.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
