We believe that to be relevant, our membership should reflect the diverse nature of the broadly defined marketing industry, the City, and UK society and so we seek to draw members with marketing/ agency leadership experience from a wide range of backgrounds including:

  • Senior industry figures including non-executive Directors, CEOs, CMOs academics and professionals
  • Accomplished practitioners with a deep knowledge and experience, from business, public, academia or military
  • Earlier career high achievers with commercial and/or not for profit marketing/ agency experience

For a sustainable Company, which is large enough to deliver our goals yet small enough to still feel personal, we aim to have around 400 active members, attracting marketing leaders, agency practitioners and senior academics.

  5. You relish the opportunity to become a Freeman of the City of London, to experience the pageantry and participate in the history and ancient traditions of the City of London.

What does it cost?

Membership of the Marketors costs around £450 per year, either payable annually or in monthly instalments. There is a £500 joining fee. It is then free for members to participate in the Company’s mentoring, outreach and education/ skills activities. The Marketors run events throughout the year, some of which are free to members, others of which cost between £20 to £175 per head, depending on the format.

Our four-step joining process:

1. Contact our Membership Team

Please email our team via: membership@marketors.org, including the title of your current role and a link to your LinkedIn profile and we will come back to you with any clarification questions we may have and if appropriate, an application form.

2. Complete our Application Form

Our application form gives you the opportunity to share some more information about yourself in the context of our purposes. Once completed, your application is submitted to the membership committee.

If you would like to find out more about us before applying, we run several open evenings a year. To book onto our next open evening, email membership@marketors.org

3. Interview

Once you submit your application form, we will then invite you to an online interview with 1 or 2 of our existing members, which will also give you the opportunity to ask any questions that you may have.

4. Confirmation

Assuming the interview goes well, we will confirm your membership, including seeking approval by our Court, the senior team that leads the Company.

Once you have been approved, the Clerks’ Office will contact you and invite you to be formally admitted by being granted your Freedom of the Company at the next Great Event or Ceremonial Court meeting. The process is very quick once we receive your form.
