Head of Marketing
What you'll be doing
As Head of Marketing, you'll lead the strategic marketing function for Participation at the UK Parliament, shaping how people across the UK engage with Parliament's public and commercial services. This is a unique opportunity to influence how millions of people connect with UK democracy from the heart of Parliament.
This is a high-impact leadership role where you'll develop and deliver an ambitious, insight-led marketing strategy, oversee creative multi-channel campaigns, and drive audience growth, engagement, and income. Leading a talented bicameral team, you'll foster a collaborative, high-performing culture while managing budgets, external agencies, and campaign performance to maximise impact and return on investment.
Working closely with senior leaders, Members, and communications colleagues across both Houses, you'll provide strategic marketing expertise, strengthen stakeholder relationships, and help shape Participation's future direction. You'll also champion innovation, oversee marketing during periods of operational change or crisis, and ensure Parliament's brand and messaging are delivered consistently across all channels.
