• Identify and capitalise on opportunities to enhance brand relevance and demand generation.

Demand Generation and Brand Awareness:

• Design and execute strategies to generate demand among HR professionals and C-suite executives.
• Enhance brand visibility and credibility within the B2B sector.
• Utilise data-driven approaches to optimise marketing campaigns and initiatives.

Multi-Channel Marketing and Growth:

• Evaluate and expand marketing channels beyond current paid social efforts.
• Develop and implement multi-channel marketing strategies, including content marketing, email campaigns, events, and more.
• Innovate and test new approaches for demand generation and customer acquisition.

Performance and Conversion Optimisation:

• Drive performance across the marketing funnel, optimising for conversion at each stage.
• Leverage data and analytics to track campaign effectiveness and ROI.
• Continuously improve lead nurturing strategies to increase sales pipeline efficiency.

Collaboration and Cross-Functional Leadership:

• Collaborate closely with Sales, Product, and Customer Success teams to ensure marketing efforts support overall business goals.
• Align marketing initiatives with product development timelines and sales objectives.
• Serve as the marketing voice in leadership discussions, contributing to strategic decision-making.

What We're Looking For:

• Proven experience in a senior B2B marketing role in a tech led product, preferably within the employee benefits, FinTech, or SaaS industries. B2C experience is a welcomed perspective.
• Strong track record in demand generation, brand building, and multi-channel marketing.
• Demonstrated leadership skills with experience managing and developing a diverse marketing team.
• Strategic thinker with the ability to execute tactically and adapt to a dynamic startup environment.
• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to influence stakeholders at all levels.
