What is the Marketing and Digital directorate's role at VisitScotland?
Teams across the Marketing and Digital Directorate all have an important part to play.
We're focused on building demand for Scotland’s tourism and event offering. We do this using valuable insights, up to date intelligence and the latest marketing and creative techniques. We also work with travel trade, tourism businesses and international trade bodies to ensure the tourism and event offering in Scotland is relevant, compelling and competitive.
We build strong, sustainable and strategic partnerships to support our overall aims and develop and nurture key partnerships to amplify our messaging and reach key audiences all year round, across the globe. From regional and sectoral, to travel companies and online travel agencies, to influencer and media partners, we're always looking for ways to extend the coverage and frequency of our communication. This year we're already working in partnership with Scotrail, Expedia, Trip Advisor and NBC to name a few.
With 550,000 people visiting visitscotland.com and VisitScotland.org per month and 4.3 million followers across our consumer and corporate social channels, we have a captive audience that any organisation in Scotland would be proud of.
With audiences continually changing the way they find inspiration, information and transact online, we need to keep advancing. A big part of what we do involves developing our digital platforms, continuing to improve the online user experiences through content, technical capability and promotion.
