Eddie Posted October 27, 2021 Share Posted October 27, 2021 (edited) £55k plus an unspecified bonus on a one year fixed term contract isn’t going to attract many candidates of a high enough calibre for this role.

The marketing graduates, fresh from university, starting at my ex-employer in September are on £48K. I seriously doubt you would get any applicants at all for the RFL job unless the bonus package is the main element of the package. But presumably things are different in Manchester.

My first point of call to do benchmarking for a role would be indeed, monster etc. When I did that there were some more and some were less. the 55K on offer seems the average amount for the roles available. It doesn't seem an unreasonable salary based on what evidence I can see..... Happy to be proved otherwise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whippet13 Posted October 27, 2021 Share Posted October 27, 2021 £55K plus big bonuses seems reasonable for a job that is already half done since according to everything released by RLWC it was on or ahead of targets for tickets sales and refunds have been minimal. Hopefully this means the RLWC are not resting on their laurels and are determined to use the extra time to sell even more tickets and corporate than planned. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunbar Posted October 27, 2021 Share Posted October 27, 2021 I am pleased to see that there is a performance element included in the package.

FWIW, Glassdoor reports UK-wide, average salary for "Head of Marketing" is £67K and for "Marketing Director" its £90K. I guess there's plenty of attractive things about the job though for the career-minded - chance to network with important sponsors, policians, maybe get on telly? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave T Posted October 27, 2021 Share Posted October 27, 2021 'Head of' roles will have a wide range of salaries as these roles can vary quite significantly. It would appear to be modest, not great, but not terrible. It's probably quite a nice one for the CV if this is a successful tournament. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact that it’s time limited to a year means, I think, it will absolutely suit a CV builder - and I don’t think that’s a bad thing at all. 1 Build a man a fire, and he'll be warm for a day.
