Marketing Manager/Executive (Pre-Opening) – Crowne Plaza Geelong

Be part of a landmark hotel opening in one of Victoria's most exciting waterfront destinations

In partnership with Plenary Group, IHG Hotels & Resorts (IHG) is bringing its world-class Crowne Plaza brand to the Victorian regional city of Geelong. Scheduled to open in 2026, Crowne Plaza Geelong will redefine premium accommodation, offering a sophisticated stay for both leisure and corporate travellers. It will form part of the highly anticipated Nyaal Banyul Geelong Convention and Exhibition Centre precinct, a transformative development featuring a 1,000-seat convention centre, exhibition spaces, and a vibrant retail and hospitality hub. Located in the heart of the emerging precinct, this 200-room hotel will feature spacious suites, an extensive restaurant and bar offering, pool, gym, and meeting facilities.

As Marketing Manager (or experienced Executive), you'll report to the Director of Sales & Marketing and play a key role in delivering the hotel's overall marketing strategy while managing day-to-day initiatives. From showcasing the hotel and its event spaces to highlighting our three food & beverage outlets, you'll help shape the public identity of Crowne Plaza Geelong from pre-opening through launch and beyond.

A little taste of your day-to-day

Every day is different, but as part of the pre-opening team, you will play a key role in ensuring this new hotel is ready to welcome its first guests, including:

·  Support and contribute to the hotel's overall marketing strategy, promoting accommodation, events, and three food & beverage outlets.

·  Plan, create, and manage content across multiple channels, including websites, eDMs, brochures, signage, and social media (Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn).

·  Oversee social media scheduling, engagement, influencer collaborations, and community management (including monitoring and responding to comments/DMs).

·  Manage and update website content (offers, landing pages, SEO-friendly copy) to ensure accuracy and relevance.

·  Design and produce marketing collateral, advertising, and promotional materials in collaboration with internal teams and external partners (photographers, videographers, agencies).

·  Develop and manage paid digital campaigns (Google Ads, Meta, Display), email marketing, and targeted contact databases.

·  Monitor, analyse, and report on performance metrics, including website traffic, campaign ROI, and social engagement.

·  Research industry trends and market opportunities, keeping the marketing calendar aligned with seasonal promotions and hotel initiatives.

·  Maintain brand consistency across all digital and physical touchpoints.

What we need from you

·  Proven marketing experience, ideally within hotels, hospitality, or tourism.

·  Strong creative skills, including graphic design (Adobe Creative Suite or Canva) and digital content creation.

·  Experience managing social media platforms, SEO, and Google Ads.

·  Excellent written and verbal communication with sharp attention to detail.

·  Highly organised, proactive, and able to manage multiple projects independently.

·  A collaborative team player with the ability to see projects through end-to-end.

·  Full working rights in Australia, with fluent English and professional presentation
