On 16 May, we'll be back with our first Marketing Conference of 2024. The event will bring together leading professionals in postgraduate recruitment, who will offer unique perspectives and insights on the latest developments in the sector.
An exclusive, expert-led talks programme will be followed by an opportunity to network with fellow delegates, trade ideas and walk away with new contacts.
The short answer is anyone working in postgraduate marketing or recruitment! It doesn’t matter if you’ve worked in the sector for ten months or ten years, or whether you focus solely on postgraduate study or you’re involved in undergraduate marketing too.
Attending a conference for the first time can be intimidating, especially if you’re relatively new to the sector. But your perspectives and experience will be valuable no matter your role or how long you’ve been in it.
Registration will open at 9:30am, and we’ll have a selection of refreshments ready for you on arrival. In the morning, we’ll have a programme of one-time-only talks, which are exclusive to this event and won’t be recorded!
Sessions include a deep dive into FAU's latest postgraduate insights from our Director of Audience and Editorial and Head of Student Engagement and Development, and the scoop on lesser-considered PGT competitor markets from the Managing Director of our new collaborator, findcourses. We'll also be hosting panel discussions featuring both postgraduate recruitment professionals and current students. You’ll have an opportunity to catch up with speakers after the talks and ask any questions during our networking breaks.
Finally, it’s time for our post-event drinks reception at Sheffield City Centre's Head of Steam. Enjoy a complimentary beverage (or two) while you catch up with colleagues and make new contacts!
Hopefully we’ve laid out enough of the benefits that you feel confident demonstrating to your manager why you should attend this conference! We hope that the networking opportunities and talks programme constitute enough of a value to your university or organisation, but to help close the deal, it’s worth remembering that our Marketing Conference is uniquely postgraduate focused. There is no other conference in the UK offering tailored advice and insights specifically for postgraduate marketers.
