The Role

We’re looking for a strategic, data‑driven Head of Demand Generation to own and accelerate our full‑funnel marketing engine. This leader will design and execute scalable programs that drive qualified pipeline, improve conversion performance, and strengthen our presence in the markets that matter. You’ll bring together inbound, outbound, digital, events, content, and partner marketing into a cohesive, repeatable demand engine that fuels revenue growth. This is a hands‑on leadership role: strategy, execution, optimisation, and cross‑functional alignment with Sales, Product, and Revenue Operations. In addition to running a marketing campaign of 3 you will run an SDR team of 7 to drive an aligned demand generation strategy.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Build the end‑to‑end demand generation strategy across all segments and regions.

• Own the demand‑generation budget, forecasting, and ROI analysis.
• Own the lead nurturing and processes for winning deals.

Campaign & Program Leadership

• Design multi‑channel campaigns that span paid, organic, ABM, email, content, events, and social.
• Lead the creation of nurture programs to increase engagement, MQL→SQL conversion, and sales velocity.
• Drive ABM programs in partnership with Sales for high‑value accounts.

Team Leadership & Collaboration

• Lead and develop a high‑performing demand generation team.
• Align cross‑functionally with Sales, SDR, Product Marketing, and Customer Success.
• Create predictable, scalable workflows between Marketing and Sales.

Data, Insights & Optimisation

• Own marketing funnel analytics, reporting, attribution modelling, and insights.
• Continuously optimise campaigns based on performance metrics and experimentation.
• Champion a culture of test‑and‑learn across channels.

Technology & Operations

• Oversee the marketing tech stack (automation, CRM, analytics, ABM tools).
• Ensure best practices in lead scoring, routing, segmentation, and data hygiene.
• Partner with RevOps to streamline the lead lifecycle.

What We’re Looking For — Essential

• 7+ years’ experience in B2B marketing with a focus on demand generation or growth.
• Proven track record of driving measurable pipeline and revenue impact.
• Strong understanding of modern marketing channels, attribution, and funnel metrics.
• Experience building and leading high‑performing marketing teams.
• Expertise with marketing automation and CRM systems (HubSpot, Marketo, Salesforce, etc.).
• Ability to work cross‑functionally and influence senior stakeholders.

Desirable

• Experience in SaaS, data, analytics, technology, or subscription‑based businesses.
• Background in ABM and enterprise/complex sales cycles.
• Global or multi‑region marketing experience.
• Strong analytical mindset and comfort with experimentation.

What Success Looks Like

• Predictable, scalable pipeline that consistently supports revenue targets.
• Improved funnel conversion rates from awareness to close.
• High‑impact campaigns that resonate with our ICPs.
• Strong alignment between Marketing, Sales, and RevOps.
• A motivated, high‑performance marketing team.
