Group Marketing Director

Manchester (office based, 5 days)
£85,000 - £100,000

A UK business process outsourcing group is hiring its first Marketing Director. The group has grown both organically and by acquisition and now owns a portfolio of customer experience and contact centre businesses, each with its own proposition, client base and route to market.

The remit

You will own group marketing end to end, overseeing the existing team and building out the wider function gradually and strategically.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.

Only hits

No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.

This role oversees a portfolio and while the service lines are closely aligned, the demographics vary dramatically. Your strategy must therefore be adapted to the needs of the individual businesses.

The Ideal Candidate:

  • Marketing leadership in BPO, software, or managed services (MSP or similar). Alternatively, agency side, running marketing across multiple clients in one of those sectors.
  • Evidence of building a function rather than inheriting one that already works.
  • Genuine commercial rigour. You should be comfortable being held to pipeline and return, not impressions.
  • The range to operate across both volume-driven direct marketing and considered B2B brand and event marketing.
  • Someone strategic who is still close enough to the detail to hold a small team to account and personally execute. This is not a pure delegation role and there are no ivory towers.
