We're partnering with a market-leading national training provider that is experiencing significant growth and investing heavily in the next phase of its journey. Following a review of the role, our client is looking beyond a traditional Marketing Manager. They want a commercially-minded marketing leader who understands that marketing exists to drive business growth, influence commercial strategy and deliver measurable ROI.

Reporting directly to the Commercial Director, you'll take ownership of the entire marketing function, leading an established team while working closely with Sales, Operations and the wider leadership team to shape business strategy. This is a genuine opportunity to step into a Head of Marketing level position where you'll have the autonomy to influence direction, introduce new ideas and build marketing around commercial outcomes rather than simply delivering campaigns.

If you're a commercially focused marketing leader who enjoys strategy, leading people and using data to drive growth, this is an opportunity not to be missed.
