Chief Marketing Officer
Belfast | Competitive salary and benefits
TeamFeePay (TFP) is one of the biggest grassroots football club management platforms in the UK. We support over 2,000 football clubs and 250,000+ coaches, players, parents and guardians on the platform, and we're now expanding into Italy, Spain and the rest of Europe. We're a scale-up growing rapidly, and marketing is core to that growth.
We are seeking a strategic, commercially minded Chief Marketing Officer to join our executive leadership team and own the marketing agenda across the business. With an existing marketing team of five, you will manage that team and report directly to the CEO. You will set the marketing vision and strategy, build and lead the marketing function, and be directly accountable for the brand growth, customer acquisition, and market expansion that underpins TFP's growth across the UK and Europe. This role owns the marketing strategy and investment case end-to-end: aligning it with company objectives, accelerating our growth in European SaaS markets, and representing marketing at board level.
About Our Marketing Function
As a member of the executive team, you'll work closely with the CRO, CFO, and fellow leadership across Sales, Product, and Customer Success, and you'll represent marketing directly to the Board, so this role sits at the centre of how TFP grows across our UK and European markets.
