Job Profile Description

Main purpose of the role & responsibilities in the business:

Our vision is to create a world-class business development and marketing capability for Kainos, fuelled by a diverse range of highly talented and motivated professionals working collaboratively and innovatively to ensure we continue our growth trajectory.

We do this via an open and supportive environment where colleagues can share information, learn from one another, and excel in their own career. With consistent ways of working aligned to industry best practice, we build sustainable and predictable sales pipelines for our market-leading offerings.

What You’ll Do

As a GTM Activation Marketing Manager, working within the Campaign Activation team and reporting to the VP of Campaign Activation, you will develop and own the GTM activation strategy, campaign plans, and integrated activation approach that fully align with commercial priorities and sales plans to support growth and ambitions for the Workday Product Business Unit.

You will act as the bridge between campaign strategy and execution, translating commercial priorities into high-impact, multi-channel campaigns and ensuring they are effectively activated, orchestrated, and optimised across the full buyer journey. You will also be responsible for translating strategic product and campaign messaging into effective activation across campaign touchpoints, ensuring consistent and compelling messaging throughout the buyer journey.

Working in close partnership with Sales & SDRs, Product Marketing, Alliances, Sales Enablement, and wider marketing teams (Marketing Operations, Content, Brand, Events), you will ensure strong alignment from campaign launch through to follow-up, delivering against agreed goals including pipeline generation, progression, and conversion.

You will use your extensive experience and commercial knowledge to maximise the impact of marketing on the business. You will foster strong relationships with key internal stakeholders and external partners, acting as a trusted advisor.

Key Responsibilities

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.
