The marketing must ensure that our Skills Accelerator opportunities reach the intended audience and that all Create Central Skills Accelerator opportunities have a consistent look and feel that identifies them as part of the West Midlands Skills Cluster. With this in mind, we must reach all areas of the West Midlands, so we cannot exclusively target Birmingham. The appointed supplier will be required to work closely with Create Central (including the in-house social media accounts manager) and our specialist Outreach and Engagement Partner, who will provide a clear strategic approach and open networks for all suppliers to support the delivery of marketing and events for the programme. This will involve both online and non-digital marketing. For example, it might involve identifying and engaging influencers to access their networks and ensure we are not just reaching 'the usual suspects'. ## CPV classification Advertising and marketing services Source Contracts Finder (UK) [View official notice](https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/notice/ad974cb7-c181-4ad2-93e5-ac50338f4fed) Never miss a tender like this again Get AI summaries, deadline alerts and a bid pipeline for tenders matched to your business.
