  • Lead website and funnel efforts: structure pages, brief dev/design, review UX, and create landing pages for campaigns and SEO.
  • Run SEM and demand-capture experiments, defining paid search strategy and iterating quickly based on results.
  • Produce high-value content: one-pagers, client stories, use-cases, pitch decks, LinkedIn posts, and assets reusable across Sales and Product.
  • Drive Account-Based Marketing: manage clean account data, create tailored email sequences, downloadable resources, and nurture flows; collaborate with Sales to refine MQL definitions.
  • Organise webinars and thought-leadership opportunities: coordinate with internal leaders, manage logistics, narrative, and promotion.

Goals & Objectives or Success Metrics:

  • Drive targeted account engagement and support revenue growth.
  • Produce high-value, reusable content that drives awareness.
  • Improve conversion and engagement through optimised website and landing pages.

  • Hands-on operator: executes personally and comfortable self-directing and building processes from scratch.
  • Understands cross-functional dynamics between Product, Technical, and Sales teams, turning that knowledge into actionable marketing work.
