Digital Marketing
Digital marketing sits at the edge of our accredited Career Matrix today, closest to the site's "Service & Experience" domain: the discipline of understanding a customer's end-to-end journey. If your background includes marketing, communications, customer service or retail, this is a genuine route in, though we're more cautious here about specific salary and skills data since it isn't a dedicated Matrix domain yet.
