Overview
We are seeking an experienced Global Marketing Director to join us on a 12-month fixed-term contract, providing maternity cover from November 2026. This is an exciting opportunity to lead our global marketing function and ensure continuity across our strategic marketing priorities during this period.
You will own the definition and execution of the global marketing strategy for the business unit, working closely with the Chief Growth and Innovation Officer, Engineering leadership, sales and the wider marketing organisation to build pipeline, grow brand presence and support the unit's commercial ambitions. This is a hands-on leadership role: you will set direction, manage a global team and budget, and stay close enough to the work to keep campaigns moving.
Because this is a fixed-term cover, we are looking for someone who can get up to speed quickly, take ownership of a strategy already in flight, and hand it back in good shape.
Responsibilities
Strategy and positioning
- Define and execute the global marketing strategy for the Engineering business in support of growth targets
- Own the value proposition and messaging framework, ensuring consistency across markets, channels and sales teams
- Maintain an active watch on market trends and competitor activity, translating findings into commercial recommendations
Demand generation and ABM
- Build and run account-based marketing programmes for global strategic accounts, in partnership with sales
- Plan and deliver integrated global campaigns across online and offline channels
- Oversee lead management, nurture and handover processes, and the reporting that sits behind them
Content, brand and events
- Direct content development and creation across formats and markets, aligned to buyer needs and the sales cycle
- Ensure corporate brand standards are upheld across all marketing activity
- Own the global event programme, from strategy and selection through to delivery and follow-up
