We’re working with a high-growth UK space technology company developing advanced Earth observation and geospatial solutions for customers across defence, government, critical infrastructure, and climate resilience.
They’re looking for a Marketing Director to take ownership of the company’s brand, positioning, communications, content, and demand generation as the business enters its next phase of international growth.
This is a hands-on leadership role - ideal for a commercially-minded marketing leader who can set the strategic direction while still getting involved in the execution.
You’ll work closely with Sales, Commercial, Product, and Executive leadership, helping translate highly technical technology into clear, compelling propositions for very different audiences.
🛰️ The Role
You’ll own the marketing strategy across multiple markets and customer segments, adapting the company's messaging and go-to-market approach for audiences ranging from defence and government organizations to infrastructure, enterprise, and climate-focused customers.
Your responsibilities will include:
- Developing and owning the overall marketing strategy and annual marketing plan
- Leading go-to-market strategy for new products, capabilities, and market launches
- Defining the company's brand positioning, messaging, tone of voice, and narrative
- Building demand-generation programs that contribute directly to pipeline and revenue
- Working closely with Sales and Commercial teams to improve lead generation, sales enablement, and conversion
- Leading corporate communications, PR, and external brand activity
- Overseeing content, digital marketing, social media, and inbound growth
- Using market and competitor intelligence to identify new opportunities and refine positioning
- Developing the company's marketing operations, CRM, and automation capabilities
- Managing marketing budgets, agencies, suppliers, and external partners
- Building and mentoring the marketing team as the function grows
- Reporting marketing performance, pipeline contribution, and ROI to senior leadership and investors
