We’re looking for a brilliant Marketing Director to join a high-profile national organisation at the heart of UK sport and entertainment.
This is a genuinely exciting brief.
It’s a senior, highly visible role leading marketing across a portfolio of well-known consumer brands, with a clear mandate around audience growth, engagement, brand and commercial impact.
And with a significant programme of activity ahead in 2027, there’s plenty to get your teeth into.
This is a 13-month maternity cover, but it’s absolutely not a role that’s simply about keeping things moving. There’s an established strategy, an ambitious agenda and a real opportunity for the right person to come in, bring their experience and make an impact quickly.
The role
You’ll lead the marketing strategy across the organisation’s portfolio of brands, competitions and audience propositions.
At the heart of the brief is a simple ambition: grow and engage audiences, strengthen the brands and translate that engagement into meaningful commercial value.
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
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.
You’ll lead a talented team of six and work closely with colleagues across Commercial, Content, Digital, Communications, Data and Insight.
You’ll also manage key agency and strategic partner relationships and be responsible for significant marketing investment.
It’s broad. It’s fast-moving. And it needs someone who can see the big picture while still being close enough to the work to make things happen.
Who are we looking for?
A marketing leader who knows how to build brands and grow audiences, but who also understands that great marketing has to deliver.
You’ll bring:
- Significant senior marketing leadership experience in a major consumer-facing organisation.
- A strong track record of developing and delivering national brand and audience growth strategies.
- Experience creating high-impact campaigns around major events, entertainment, sport or other culturally relevant consumer moments.
- A strong understanding of audiences, consumer behaviour and customer or fan engagement.
- Evidence of using data and insight to drive measurable audience and commercial growth.
- Strong commercial judgement and experience working alongside partnerships, sponsorship or revenue teams.
- Experience leading and developing high-performing teams.
- Confidence managing significant budgets, agencies and strategic partners.
- The ability to influence and build trust with senior stakeholders across a complex organisation.
