Content Marketing Team Lead in London

About PleoMessy spend management is tricky business. And tedious processes are a lose-lose situation for all involved, not just finance. We build spend solutions that make managing money seamless, empowering, and surprisingly effective for finance teams and employees alike - with a vision to help all businesses 'go beyond'.With great ambitions driving us forward, we can't say we've got this whole thing figured out. About the roleWe're looking for a Brand Marketing Lead to join our Brand & Marketing team at Pleo. In this role, you'll help own our brand marketing strategy and campaign execution across six European markets and be part of our marketing team as we scale our spend management platform. If you're excited about building category-defining campaigns that move Pleo from a good solution to the undisputed choice for mid-market finance leaders and are passionate about brand strategy and creative execution, then this is the opportunity for you!

What you'll be doingAs a Brand Marketing Lead, you will: Own the brand marketing strategy that moves Pleo from 'one of many' to the undisputed choice for mid-market European finance leaders. Build and execute integrated brand campaigns from concept through to reporting — learning from what we've just launched, and pushing further. Create branded content that shows how financial services should be done. Content that recognizes the precision, rigor, and craft that finance leaders bring to their work. Measure what matters — working with Brand Intelligence, Integrated Marketing, Data, and MOps to track brand lift, earned media, consideration, and how brand work flows into pipeline and revenue. Set the benchmark for brand work in fintech — prove that category-defining campaigns come from strategic rigor and creative excellence working together. You'll establish Pleo as the model for how brands should think about their audience, and show that understanding someone better than anyone else is a more powerful differentiator than any feature. What you bringYou'll thrive in this role if you have:10+ years in brand marketing (B2B or fintech might be helpful, but we care more about the thinking than the category)A portfolio of work that shows you've led campaigns from strategy through to execution — ideally integrated campaigns that work across multiple channelsStrong stakeholder management skills — you can influence a room, sell an idea, and push back when something isn't workingStrategic thinking + execution mindset — you're equally comfortable building a 6-month brand strategy and getting your hands dirty on day-to-day campaign workComfort with ambiguity and pace — this is a growing company, and things move fast. You thrive in thatUnderstanding of how brand and pipeline connect — you know that brand campaigns need to serve business growth, not just awarenessA point of view on category dynamics — you can look at a market and spot where everyone's getting it wrongA strong understanding for when/how to localise concepts, messaging & GTM campaigns across different markets.
