An exciting opportunity has arisen to join our team here in Kendal as our Marketing & Communications Coordinator.
Located right at the gateway to the adventure playground that is the English Lake District, we're an unashamedly modern roastery, with a sourcing strategy focussed on quality, provenance and relationships, and we're proud to supply some of the leading coffee shops, restaurants, and hotels in the UK and beyond.
The ideal candidate will be highly organised and process-driven, with a strong eye for aesthetics and visual detail, comfortable juggling multiple platforms and deadlines, and confident liaising with external designers, photographers and suppliers. They will also be expected to take ownership of our day-to-day social media scheduling, email marketing, and online shop, ensuring everything from our Instagram feed to our product pages and newsletters looks beautifully presented and on-brand.
We manage our marketing and e-commerce operations through Instagram, Klaviyo, Shopify and Orderspace. Experience across these platforms is preferable, but not essential. Strong copywriting skills, and/or a background in coffee with the ability to write about it with authority, would also be a bonus.
Please see below for a more detailed breakdown of roles and responsibilities.
If you're interested, please email jobs@redbankcoffee.com with the subject line 'Marketing & Communications Coordinator' telling us why you think you are well-suited to the role, and attaching a copy of your CV.
Hours: Part time, 2-3 days per week. It's important that you can be at our roastery in Kendal one day per week, but otherwise we're flexible and happy for the remaining hours to be worked from home.
Deadline for applications: 19th July 2026.
Please note that we reserve the right to close this vacancy early if a suitable candidate is found, so we encourage you to apply promptly.
