Marketing Lead

About Stella Stays

At Stella Stays, we're all about creating more than just places to stay - We're building experiences, connections and communities.

We're looking for a creative, energetic and hands-on Marketing Lead who lives and breathes marketing, has a genuine passion for people and community, and knows how to turn great ideas into exciting campaigns, engaging content and memorable experiences.

If you're someone who is just as comfortable planning a marketing campaign as you are picking up a camera, editing a reel, capturing an event or coming up with the next big community activation, we'd love to meet you!

The Role

This is an all-rounder marketing role for someone who loves being involved in every aspect of marketing. You'll take ownership of bringing the Stella Stays brand to life across digital platforms, social media, content, and on-the-ground experiences.

You'll work closely with our Community Team to create exciting events, build meaningful connections and make sure the Stella Stays community is always engaged, inspired and growing.

No two days will look the same - One day you could be planning a campaign, the next shooting content, attending an event, editing videos or brainstorming creative ideas with the team.
