Job description
Head of Marketing
If you’re the kind of marketing leader who walks in and instantly earns attention — not because you shout the loudest, but because people listen — this might just be your stage.
This isn’t a role where you hide behind a brand. The Director already leads from the front; you’ll be the one who brings that energy into every campaign, every conversation, and every corner of the business.
It’s about influence, not ego. Collaboration, not control. And a team that looks to you because you help them do their best work — not because your title says they should.
The Role
You’ll take ownership of a dynamic marketing function, working shoulder to shoulder with the leadership team to amplify a brand that’s already bold and well-known.
Your focus? To inspire your team, build structure and momentum, and drive creative campaigns that fill events, generate leads, and keep the business firmly in the spotlight.
What You’ll Be Doing
Leading, motivating, and developing the marketing team to deliver exceptional results — and enjoy doing it
Turning strategic goals into actionable marketing plans that drive awareness, engagement, and revenue
Collaborating with the wider business — from sales and operations to senior leadership — ensuring marketing adds value across every department
Overseeing campaign delivery, content creation, and brand management with consistency and flair
Using insight and data to guide smart decisions and refine performance
Representing marketing at leadership level — confident, credible, and commercially minded
Building a culture of creativity, accountability, and continuous improvement
What You’ll Need
Proven experience leading a marketing team at manager or head level
A natural ability to inspire confidence — in your team, your peers, and your leaders
A people-first mindset; you coach, guide, and get the best from those around you
Strategic thinking paired with hands-on delivery — you know when to plan and when to pitch in
A sharp understanding of lead generation, campaign performance, and commercial return
Excellent communication and influencing skills — you can bridge creative vision and business goals with ease
What You Might Not Like
This isn’t your typical “top of the pyramid” setup — collaboration and alignment are non-negotiable.
It’s fast-paced, with high expectations — you’ll need to balance creativity with accountability.
You’ll be visible. If you prefer working quietly behind the curtain, this probably isn’t your scene.
What To Do Next
If you thrive on influence, energy, and impact — and you’re ready to lead a talented team in a business that values ambition and authenticity — we’d love to hear from you.
Bring your leadership stories, your proudest campaigns, and your ideas for how marketing can move a business forward.
This isn’t just about marketing. It’s about momentum.
