Skills to look for on a Digital Marketing Manager’s CV

The skills needed in a Digital Marketing Manager vary based on your company’s specific goals and requirements. Here, we’ve highlighted the essential skills to prioritise in your talent hunt.

A Digital Marketing Manager must understand multiple channels, such as SEO, PPC, social media, and email, to create cohesive campaigns that meet business goals. This expertise ensures your marketing efforts are integrated, cost-effective, and designed to maximise reach and impact.

Analysing performance metrics and consumer behaviour allow Digital Marketing Managers to refine campaigns and make data-driven decisions. This important skill ensures your resources are allocated efficiently, your strategies are continuously optimised, and your marketing efforts produce measurable, positive results.

Crafting content strategies that resonate with target audiences is essential for brand engagement and brand loyalty. Digital Marketing Managers with this skill ensure that every piece of content aligns with business objectives and supports overall marketing initiatives.

Digital marketing often involves managing multiple campaigns, tight deadlines, and teams. Strong project management skills allow Digital Marketing Managers to oversee these moving parts, ensure timely delivery, and maintain quality across the projects. Digital Marketing Managers sometimes handle all aspects of digital marketing in-house and collaborate with external vendors or freelancers for specific tasks like web development or UX design.

Adaptability is crucial with so many rapid changes in digital marketing tools, trends, and algorithms. Take for example the rise of AI in creative tasks. A Digital Marketing Manager must stay ahead of industry shifts, embracing new technologies and tactics to keep your strategies competitive and innovative.
