Kids’ World Education Group (KWEG) is a growing, family-owned early learning group with 24+ centres across three much-loved brands: All About Children ELC, Adventureland ELC and Lots of Hugs ELC. We believe every child deserves a strong start—and we back that belief with practical marketing that serves whānau.
As we scale, we’re hiring an experienced, ambitious, curious, and self-driven Marketing Executive (at least with 3 years experience) who takes initiative and owns outcomes. You’ll audit what’s there, spot gaps, propose the plan, and execute—fast. You’ll have regular check-ins with an off-site Brand Strategist for guidance on principles and priorities, but day-to-day you’ll own the projects and the work: build playbooks, create assets, keep channels humming, and sharpen the customer journey end-to-end.
If you love rolling up your sleeves, turning ambiguity into frameworks, and getting real results, this is your moment.
What you’ll do
· Assist in creating on-brand collateral: centre flyers, posters, brochures, and templates across our three brands.
· Write and manage content: copy for websites, blogs, social posts, ads, and centre comms and flyers.
· Own social media & community: plan, post, and moderate across Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn.
· Assist in running & optimising Facebook Ads: set up campaigns, audiences, budgets, and simple reporting (with potential of working with an agency)
· Design basics: produce clean digital assets for basic collateral (Canva).
· Keep websites fresh: update pages, listings, and centre information.
· Map & enhance the customer journey: from first click to centre tour—lift clarity, care, and conversion.
· Stakeholder wrangling: coordinate with centre managers, suppliers, and agencies—often all at once.
· Content planning: build and manage an editorial calendar across brands and channels.
· Nice to have: experience with direct marketing (DM) such as email flows or mailers.
What you’ll bring
· At least 3 years in a fast-paced marketing role (in-house or agency).
· Social media management experience and Facebook Ads know-how.
· Solid writing skills—clear, warm, persuasive copy.
· Understanding of brand and brand guidelines.
· Design confidence (e.g. Canva) and a keen eye for consistency.
· Self-starter energy—able to get your hands dirty and deliver without constant support.
· Insight-led mindset: you turn observations into recommendations and bring others along.
· Calm juggler: you manage multiple stakeholders and deadlines without dropping the ball.
· Fast learner: you pick things up quickly and execute with care.
· Problem-solving skills
· (Bonus points: early childhood/education experience, simple video editing, email platforms, website CMS, basic analytics/reporting.)
What we offer
· Manukau-based head office with a warm, whānau-like vibe.
· Regular guidance from an experienced off-site Brand Strategist.
· PLD as required
· Potential agency exposure and the chance to broaden your skills as a strong executional all-rounder.
· The opportunity to shape how a growing group shows up—your work will be seen and felt across our centres.
