Head of Marketing in Northam

CMA Recruitment Group is the South’s leading independent Accountancy & Finance, Executive and HR recruitment consultancy.

Our wealth of experience, professionalism and consistency at CMA Recruitment Group sets us apart. We are dedicated to providing an environment for our employees where they can develop and flourish, which is just one of the reasons our people stay with us.

We support our people to set them on the path to success, delivering a remarkable service to our clients and candidates. Our team tell us they are proud to work for an organisation that values integrity, inclusion and wellbeing, whilst innovating and growing to provide clear development and progression opportunities to all.

This is a senior marketing leadership role with genuine responsibility and visibility across the business, combining strategic ownership with hands-on delivery.

As Head of Marketing, you will define and drive CMA’s marketing strategy while remaining closely involved in execution. Sitting on the Senior Management Team and reporting to the Managing Director, you will work in partnership with senior stakeholders to ensure marketing activity supports sector strategies, client acquisition, cross-sell and long-term growth.

You will take end-to-end ownership of marketing across the business — shaping brand positioning, driving digital performance, leading PR and thought leadership, and delivering a high-impact programme of in-person and online events. This includes evolving CMA’s digital and social presence, strengthening our market profile, and ensuring our proposition is clearly and consistently communicated to both clients and candidates.

Operating within a small, fast-paced organisation, this role requires a pragmatic, roll-up-your-sleeves approach. You will set priorities, work closely with third-party partners, define and track KPIs linked to lead generation and revenue, and ensure plans are executed effectively. You will also lead and support a Marketing Manager, balancing delegation with direct involvement where needed.

This role offers the opportunity to shape the future direction of a respected regional brand while staying close to the detail and making a visible commercial impact.

We are a supportive, professional and trusted team, and we’re proud of our reputation in the industry. Our new team member ideally is someone who is an experienced, commercially minded marketing leader who enjoys combining strategy with delivery. You will ideally:

• Have senior-level marketing experience, ideally within a professional services, consultancy or B2B environment
• Be comfortable operating in a small business setting, balancing strategic ambition with practical delivery and working within defined budgets
• Have a hands-on approach and be willing to get involved in day-to-day marketing activity when required
• Be commercially astute, with experience setting marketing KPIs and demonstrating return on investment
• Have strong digital marketing capability, including brand, website, SEO and social channels
• Be confident influencing senior stakeholders and working collaboratively across teams

You will be values-led, professional and team-focused, aligning with CMA’s culture of trust, integrity and collaboration.

CMA is proud to be an equal opportunities employer, committed to treating all individuals in a fair and equal manner and in accordance with the law regardless of gender, marital status, race, religion, colour, age, disability or sexual orientation.
