Join us at the Royal College of Physicians and help shape the future of two award‑winning UK venues — RCP London Events and Spaces at The Spine.

We’re looking for a strategic, creative and data‑driven Marketing Manager – Commercial Events to elevate the profile, performance and commercial success of our exceptional venue portfolio. This is a pivotal role where you will lead multi‑channel marketing strategy, strengthen our market position, and drive revenue growth through intelligent, insight‑led campaigns.

Why this role matters

Our Meetings & Events division plays a crucial role in supporting the RCP’s wider mission. With bold revenue ambitions and major investment in CRM and marketing automation, we’re entering a new phase — and we’re seeking a marketing leader who can translate this opportunity into measurable impact.

You’ll take ownership of the end‑to‑end marketing approach across both venues, shaping how we attract, nurture and convert clients through high‑quality storytelling, customer insight, data, and innovative digital campaigns.

What you’ll lead

• A multi‑year, insight‑driven marketing strategy that powers commercial performance.


• CRM‑led marketing, automated customer journeys and segmentation that strengthen repeat business.


• Digital campaigns across paid, owned and earned channels — delivering growth in brand engagement and qualified leads.


• High‑impact sales and marketing collateral that elevates our offer and supports business development.


• Collaborative planning with Business Development Managers to ensure aligned, integrated and measurable activity.


• Leadership and coaching for Sales & Marketing Executives, helping build a high‑performing marketing function.

What we’re looking for

You’ll thrive in this role if you are:

• Strategic by nature — able to design and steer long‑term marketing direction.


• Digitally confident, with experience in CRM, automation, analytics and data‑informed decision‑making.


• Creative and brand‑savvy, producing compelling content and campaigns that stand out in competitive markets.


• Commercially sharp, with a clear understanding of how marketing drives revenue and retention.


• Collaborative, working smoothly with senior stakeholders, sales colleagues and cross‑functional teams.


• A supportive leader, ready to develop and empower junior team members.

How success will be measured

You’ll be judged on delivery and continuous optimisation of:

• Lead generation and conversion rates


• CRM automation, campaign performance and ROI


• Brand engagement and visibility


• Integrated annual sales and marketing plans across both venues

Why join us?

• Two iconic, design‑led venues with national reputation


• A supportive culture and an organisation committed to digital transformation


• The chance to shape a marketing function that directly fuels meaningful impact in healthcare


• Hybrid working with genuine flexibility
