Marketing & Sales Level 3 Apprenticeship 2026 - Zexi Ltd

Help build the growth engine behind a scaling technology business!

At Zexi Ltd, we deliver audio-visual and workplace technology solutions that help businesses communicate and operate more effectively. We are a growing business, and we’re looking for a highly organised, commercially minded individual to take ownership of customer growth activity, marketing execution, and operational structure within the company. This is a hands-on, high-responsibility role in a small but fast-moving team. You will work closely with leadership and directly alongside a part-time Sales & Purchasing Coordinator, who manages purchasing activity, supplier coordination, and sales order processing.

This role focuses on the commercial flow of the business — driving customer engagement, supporting marketing-led growth, improving pipeline discipline, and ensuring opportunities are actively progressed through the business. Although the role will predominantly be marketing driven, there will be administrative/customer facing aspects that will come with the role. Many of the additional administrative duties involve CRM updates and client research. This is ideal for someone who wants real ownership & variety in a role.
